Heather in Neverland Posted March 7, 2009 Share Posted March 7, 2009 I know with the economy and job losses and national security and what-not, AI is not all that important, but is anyone watching besides me? Or am I just a big dork? :leaving: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sassenach Posted March 7, 2009 Share Posted March 7, 2009 We're watching. I think there is a AI social group. Or at least there was talk about making one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flyingmommy Posted March 7, 2009 Share Posted March 7, 2009 My dd is watching, so I'm watching with her. She is so happy that the blind guy (can't think of his name) got through. She and her friend were doing the happy dance. j Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elaine Posted March 7, 2009 Share Posted March 7, 2009 I am! I am so relieved that that nut-job Tatiana is gone. :tongue_smilie: I love that dueling piano guy, Matt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WTMindy Posted March 7, 2009 Share Posted March 7, 2009 Funny, just this morning I was thinking, "How come no one has been talking American Idol yet?" If you are a dork, then I'm right there with you! :-) I'm pretty happy with the top 13. I'm just SOOOOOO thankful that they didn't put Tatiana through to the next round. I could not take watching that NUT JOB one more week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Di3kids Posted March 7, 2009 Share Posted March 7, 2009 So excited about this season's line-up. Lots of talent out there. Loved how the judges surprised us with the top 13, hey?! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rhonda in TX Posted March 7, 2009 Share Posted March 7, 2009 My favorites are Danny Gokey, Matt Giraud (sp?), and Megan Corkery (sp?). It seems like they're talking way too much about the "package" this year. I think that's because of the new judge, Kara. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SonshineLearner Posted March 7, 2009 Share Posted March 7, 2009 I'm sorry to say it's a family favorite! Even though I wish it weren't, and the worst thing is I sucked my family into it. I just love the show...even though sometimes I wanna throw tomatoes at the tv...when the judges are picking people I don't like!

Garga Posted March 7, 2009 Share Posted March 7, 2009 A top 13?!?! My VCR cut out on the last 5 minutes of the show. Now I've got to go to the website and see who the last 2 (!) were! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Garga Posted March 7, 2009 Share Posted March 7, 2009 I liked the red-headed girl. Wish she'd made it thru. Felt sorry for her when she misunderstood Simon and for a moment thought she had made it thru after all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heather in Neverland Posted March 7, 2009 Author Share Posted March 7, 2009 I am probably the only person on earth who doesn't think the blind guy should have gotten through. He is average at best. I like Megan!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest janainaz Posted March 7, 2009 Share Posted March 7, 2009 I'm an AI watcher - every year. I like a lot of the people this year, can't say who my favorite is yet. I'm glad Tatiana is gone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heather in Neverland Posted March 7, 2009 Author Share Posted March 7, 2009 Yeah, Tatiana is a whack job...I am glad she didn't make it. And I think Anoop is a cutie but not the best singer.

Jennifer in MI Posted March 7, 2009 Share Posted March 7, 2009 I am probably the only person on earth who doesn't think the blind guy should have gotten through. He is average at best. I like Megan!!! I agree!! That third group had the strongest singers, IMHO and he was NOT one of them. But, I did like him better the second time he sang that song (after he made it through). I also didn't like Anoop much. I was so glad Matt made it through, but what was with that outfit??!! He's from MI, so we're rooting for him. My favorite is the guy who lost his wife (I forget his name). I also like Megan. Oh - and I was glad that the two 16 year olds made it!!

Nakia Posted March 7, 2009 Share Posted March 7, 2009 I am pretty happy with the top 13. I would have rather seen Jesse make it instead of Jasmine, but that's ok. My favs are Megan and Danny. I think Danny or Lil will go all the way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jumping In Puddles Posted March 7, 2009 Share Posted March 7, 2009 I was wondering if they made Tatiana a wild card just so they could reject her again! :lol: Twisted I know, but could it be they actually liked her? No way! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fivetails Posted March 7, 2009 Share Posted March 7, 2009 I would watch if I ever caught it. Is there a place to catch it online? Could I maybe catch up and DVR the rest of the season? You can try here - they seem to have full episodes on there. I haven't been watching it with anywhere near the enthusiasm that I did a few other years - the weird way they're doing things is annoying (the small groups - rather than the bottom three go home.. I don't like this set up at all) and I haven't seen anyone that stands out like other years (heh, I loved Taylor Hicks :D and the whole Sanjaya thing was AWESOME) ..... I dunno, just kinda blah. Keep falling asleep partway through the shows, I s'pose that doesn't help LOL. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SapphireStitch Posted March 7, 2009 Share Posted March 7, 2009 We watch it here. I haven't picked a favorite yet this year...nobody's standing out much to me yet. After they've sung songs from a few different genres it will be easier to see who has a versatile voice and good personality. Since Ricky Braddy didn't make it through we have only one NC contestant to consider this year, and that's Anoop. But he goes to UNC and my husband works for WFU, so I don't know if I'm allowed to vote for him.:D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bess Posted March 11, 2009 Share Posted March 11, 2009 Just wanted to add to this thread by saying I can't choose a favorite this year. There are so many good singers this year, I think. The ones I wouldn't mind going are that oil rig guy, Megan, Jasmine, Anoop and the spanish guy. The rest of them I love! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I still like the blind guy, but I think it's more because I just like him...not because I think he's the best. Does that make sense? He is a christian and was homeschooled so I think that adds to his likeability for me. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PineFarmMom Posted March 11, 2009 Share Posted March 11, 2009 There are several we like this season. I like Megan. Her voice is just so unique! My problem now, though, is that I mostly know faces and not names. I don't like Adam either. We were all wondering if there was something we were missing...they all seem to like him. I don't think he's that great, and I just don't like the hair/makeup/nail polish thing. It never sits well with me.:lol: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coralloyd Posted March 11, 2009 Share Posted March 11, 2009 Maybe it's the rocker chick in me. But, how can you not like Adam! Even if he's not your cuppa tea, his range is absolutely AMAZING. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The funny thing is that I am SO NOT a rocker chick and I love Adam. But, I love Broadway, so maybe it is the theatrical voice that is coming through that I love. I could do without the "come hither" looks to the camera, but the guy can SING. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest janainaz Posted March 12, 2009 Share Posted March 12, 2009 There's a lot of good people this year. I love Megan, she's totally different and I loved her song last night. I like Alexis, too, but did not like her song last night. Adam is entertaining, I can't stop thinking he must be gay though. I just can't tell - I like the rocker thing - just not the gay rocker thing. I do like the blind guy and hope he stays and I really like Danny - you can't not like him. Lil - nothing special. To me, she's a dime-a-dozen and boring. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
