American Idol - top five

Well, it's been a couple of weeks. In my opinion, the show jumped the shark last week when the judges collectively decided to give kudos to almost every contestant regardless of their performance's quality. It was a bit sad, but then I got over it. I'm sure there were people who enjoyed the Fonz jumping the shark, and the couple of weeks that followed. They probably just didn't blog about it back in the 70s.

So the cool part is that Harry Connick Jr. is mentoring, arranging, and performing with the contestants. The bad news is that it's still the same contestants.

Aaron - "Fly me to the moon" - he's gotta go. Tough to teach charisma, Kara.

Casey - "Blue Skies" - Things I can't do for $100, Alex?

Crystal - "Summer Wind" - It was good. Still like her. Best so far, which isn't saying much unfortunately.

Michael - "The Way You Look Tonight" - Waiting for him to start singing "...What up with dat?"

Lee - "That's Life" - Fairly acceptable. I liked the honesty of it, and in some ways is my favorite of the night.

Well, it's been a strange season. I think Aaron's going home. But other than that... meh. What do you think?

I thought Lee was really great! And I still like Crystal. The other three bore me to tears.

I think Crystal better step it up next week or she could be gone. America is getting tired of her being blah for the past couple weeks. I think Casey is gone but there could be a Crystal shocker coming. Lee was definitely the best last night. All in all it's been a bad season on Idol. I'm ready for some "So You Think You Can Dance!"

Crystal has been my favorite through the whole season, but Lee kicked it up a notch last week. She is going to have to battle harder to win this than I thought. I would put Lee as the winner last night.
