I've got to watch this...

I've always wondered if the voting was rigged because, especially this season, the people voted off(especially lately) have been "shockers" and I wonder if they are doing it because the ratings are down...

Not really. Only shockers this season were Jessica and Nikko. Nadia and Anwar could be considered shockers i guess but their peformances that got them voted off stunk anyway, so they werent really shockers.

I personally dont think its rigged.

It doesn't really matter that the ratings were down a few million. It's still the number 1 FOX show by far, and that's all they care about. As for rigging, I know everyone and their dog thinks it, but as much as I hate to admit it, I do believe that it is NOT rigged. I mean, if it were up to the producers, I think they'd rather have LaToya and Tamyra stay in the competition and go to the finale versus them leaving in the top 4 just for controversy.

Yes, we were shocked that Jessica, Nikko, Nadia, and Anwar left, but at the same time, when you REALLY think about it, it's not tremendously shocking. I think they more shocking thing is Scott surviving than the 6 leaving.

Yes.. that's exactly what I thought. I thought it was rigged last season, but this season I don't really feel that way... because IMO, the most talented people (with the exception of one - cough ahem - ) are still in the competition.

I can't wait.
