Semi-hijack here...did anyone catch the dude on "Don't Forget the Lyrics" last night? Don't know his name...but could he wail! Blew me out with Sweet's "Ballroom Blitz".

David Archuleda was the only one that really nailed the performance tonight. His cover of The Long and Winding Road was great. This kid has a beautiful tone to his voice.
All the others really struggled with these Beatles songs. Time to move on to some new music.

I agree completely, Idol sounds great, and video is excellent as well, in HD. My wife and I started watching 2 seasons ago and we're hopelessly hooked. I think Fox network is way ahead of the pack in exploiting HDTV's potential, with PBS running a distant second. Go figure...

Look forward to it all year long. Never miss one episode. Tape it when I'm not home.
I think it's just fabulous watching these kids, or not-so-kids, chasing their dreams. Who wouldn't want to be a rock god? Who doesn't sing in the shower? I was heartbroken when Melinda Doolittle was eliminated, and I can't wait for her first album. David Archuleta is the one to watch this hear, along with Carly Smithson!

One more totally entertaining show last night.
David Cook's completely original version of Billy Jean was amazing. There were a few missteps, but this final 10 has a lot of talent. Cheers, Snade

David, Carly, or Brooke could win and I wouldn't be disappointed. Although none of those three are pure amateurs.
Ron's pissed that Amanda didn't make it.

I can't stand the show but my wife watches it, at least she's now asking me to play some Beatles tunes for her.
Now if they'd do Rush... just kidding - I'd have to shoot them then.

David Cook was good last night - but he sang Chris Cornell's version of Billie Jean. I'm not sure if the judges knew that? either way, it was good.
I'm still pulling for Brooke White to win. Last night wasn't her best; she had a little mishap at the very beginning, but she's keeping up. And is it me, or do the judges seem extra hard on Carly Smithson?

AI - must watch tv in my house.
AI - the ONLY show my wife & I watch regularly & together. Good family entertainment.
The judges have started to become harder & harder on Carly. She was the original 'annointed one'. Unfortunately she's already released a CD that tanked completely. Her label sank $2mil plus into it & it sold about 400 copies. The problem they have is Randy was one of the producers on that CD. It seems just a little incestuous at this point. Once that became well known I think the judges realize the jig is up. Carly can't win, otherwise it'll look like the fix is in. David Cook is awesome but my wife adores (& I'm convinced would run away with) Michael Johns - that's ok, I still have my Katharine McPhee wallpaper on my PC - at work

I saw the 2nd half "live" last night and was not impressed. Even Brooke let me down, she performed like she thought it would be her last time. The end of show highlights indicates that the 1st half was better, so me and Tivo will get together. I remember that my first comment to my wife after turning on the TV was "gee, look at Paula's tits!"
With that, here is a comment from Variety online at http://www.variety.com/review/VE1117...ryid=2848&cs=1 "Early in the evening, Paula Abdul made an obtuse reference to her "chihuahuas." Piece of advice: When one is poured into a form-fitting strapless top, one should not make any reference to puppies."
