There were some great moments on tonight's show as they narrowed the contestants down to 36. I'm thrilled that some of my favorites made it through--Megan Corsomethingorother, Stevie Wright, Danny Gokey, Noop-dog, Michael Sarver, and lots more. I'm not happy that Tatiana made it to the top 36. Yes, she can sing but she's so ANNOYING!!!! And so emotional. Between her and Nathaniel there is going to be some serious drama. Maybe that's why they are in the top 36. I did soften towards Nathaniel tonight though when they showed his story and interviewed his grandma. He is one lost kiddo and I am afraid the pressure of the show is going to be tough on him. He will likely get voted off early and probably won't take it well. Just sayin'. So, Joe has decided that he loves Tatiana. I think he is only saying this because he knows how much I can't stand her, he loves to disagree with me. He is funny though, talking little boy smack. He kept saying to me, "you're a fan, you're a fan, you're a fan of Tatiana," in that singsong little voice kids are so good at. He also kept telling me, "She's awesome, I love her." Grace likes her too and gave me a short lecture about judging people based on their personality. Grace says she is a great singer and because of that she really likes her. Quality family time happening at our house thanks to American Idol.
A few more thoughts--I think the sing off thing they did tonight was just plain cruel. The one who won could hardly be excited for him or herself because they had to show sympathy to the other. Especially putting two friends up against each other. I love it though that both tough guys got through. I thought Jen should have won out over Kristen. I'm not liking Kristen, she plays the victim and it's awkward. I felt bad for Jamar not getting through when his buddy Danny did. He handled it so well though. Very mature. I think I like Nick/Norman. Not sure but he is funny. I hope he goes on the show as Norman Gentle. I'm getting way too into this show. I actually kept a list of the top 36 tonight. Somehow I missed one though. At the end I only had 35. Am I a nerd or what???
So, what did you guys think???

you're a nerd...a nerd that ignored my phone call because of American Idol! sick! haha.
Joe! :) I'm with you. I'm not a fan of Tatiana. Any girl who starts that annoying Diva posing in front of the camera immediately goes to the bottom of my list. There aren't so many girl standouts this year, although I really like Lil and that girl who had a record deal before but it didn't work out.
The guys are CRAZY good this year.
Danny and that guy who sings like Elliot Yamin (dueling piano guy) are two of my faves. I like that Rob Lowe looking dude that sings really high...Adam, is it? I'm so sad that Jamar didn't get through too.
Boy, I need to get a life. ;)
Joe is funny, Grace is cute and yes, you are a nerd. No, not really, but it is really funny and kind of cute that you are keeping a list. The kids watched and they are very mad that Tatiana made it through. Kate might be banned from watching because she is going around imitating her and it's really annoying me.
this is our first year watching it and I have to say Ann is really into it. I like the two dads but there isn't room for both... Tatiwhatshername has GOT to go early...
I still love Danny the best, can't stand Tatiana, Kristen, and Nathaniel--I did feel bad for him because of his life, but anyone with that many face piercings should not be such a whiner!! I was so glad both tough guys (Matt and Michael) got through. Can't wait for next week!
You are too funny! I feel quite out of it that i watch and know no names!! how sad!! BUT like you we watch as a fmaily and its been a lot of fun!!!! Next week i will pay more attention and remember someones name!! By the way...would LOVE to get together!
I think there are a couple that you mentioned that got through just for the drama and ratings of it all. They actually are good singers but they aren't emotionally stable enough to last long int he competition.
My faves- the Queen-sounding guy Adam Lambert, Danny Gokey, Kai Kalama, Anoop Desai.
I like a couple of the girls but none have proven themselves worthy of top 12 for me yet. I'll have a better idea as the season goes on and the competition narrows down a bit.
For starters, I'm so impressed that everybody knows these people's names. PB and I have been referring to them by their most prominent personality/physical characteristic. You can use your imagination because I'm not terribly proud. I'm pretty miffed that widower dude's BFF got sent packing. I'm holding out hope for a wild card for him.
Quality family time due to American Idol...Priceless!
