Jackie - Horrible. I don't understand how the judges enjoyed that. I thought it was unbearable to listen to.

Ricky - AMAZING. Excellent voice

Alexis - Also really good. But I disagree with whoever said she's the next Nikki McKibbin, because Nikki is terrible lol. But Alexis has a wonderful voice and stage presence.

Last night, most of my votes went to Ann Marie Boskovich, with a few for Alexis Grace as well (I got a busy signal for her most of the time).

Jackie- Good energy, but terrible vocals.
Ricky- Excellent voice, but no star power.
Alexis- the only good female of the night, IMHO.
Brent- I liked him. Of course, country music is my favorite.
Stevie- I liked her song choice, but she was terrible
Anoop- I expected a lot better from him.
Casey- What the hell was that?
Michael- I enjoyed him. I think the judges will pick him as a wild card.
Ann Marie- That was definitely the wrong song for her.
Stephen- Utterly horrendous
Tatiana- Not as bad as I expected, but I can't stand her personality.
Danny- Clearly the best of the night.

My predictions: Danny and Alexis are definitely in with the 3rd spot going to either Anoop or Michael. Wild card choice will be either Michael, Anoop, or Brent.

Only watched parts of it from last night, but from what I saw, this wasn't good at all. Hopefully this was the worst batch of the top 36, and it'll get better next week. The only standout out to me was Danny, who will definitely make it through. Honestly, Tatiana really surprised me - I thought she was put through for the gimmick (and essentially the ratings) but I was wrong . . . she was a great voice, and I really liked her last night. I'm almost hoping she makes it through.

I liked Alexis and Brent - both deserve to go through, but I'm not sure sure. Anoop was good, not great, but deserves to move on. I hate how only 3 get to go through - why are they doing it this way?

pretty much everyone sucked last night, thus proving my point that this is turning out to be one of the worst seasons ever.

Jackie - good performance, awful vocals

Ricky - good voice but boring

Alexis - not as good as the judges made it out to be, she was okay

Brent - not very good

Stevie - i liked that she actually did something current but her performance was REALLY bad. i felt bad for her. it was embarrasing.

Anoop - disappointing...bad song choice

Casey - the worst of the night IMO. and that says a LOT. she was terrible. and she butchered Tattoo in Hollywood so she gets no symapthy from me

Michael - barely remember him but i think i remember him doing okay.

Ann Marie - okay, but nothing special. wrong song choice. and her comment to Kara made her look bitter.

Stephen - pretty bad

Tatania - i think its HILARIOUS how everyone hates her yet she went and gave one of the best performances of the night. im rooting for her just because it's funny how she's hated yet vocally is better then most of the pack LOLLLL. i hope she makes it through tonight.

Danny - very overrated by the judges, but still the best of the night.

Danny is 100% going to get through, no doubt about it. as for the rest, it's a toss-up between Alexis, Tatiana, Anoop, and Michael for the remaining 2 spots...and whoever doesnt get through of them will probably be brought back as a wildcard.

Yeah, I pretty much share your thoughts exactly. Danny is through, and the 4 you listed will definitely be the main contenders for the other 2 spots. Besides that, this season is turning out to be very lackluster.

On a different note, I also see that Paula is back on her "prescriptions" again

I wasn't surprised at all by the results. I figured Alexis and Danny were in with either Michael or Anoop getting the 3rd spot. Based on Tuesday's performance, I think Michael definitely deserved it over Anoop. I'm sure Anoop will get in on a wild card spot. He and Brent are the only ones from that group deserving of one, IMHO.

True, Tataina didn't sound too bad the other night, but her overly obnoxious behavior is a total turn-off to me. I don't feel bad for her at all. She brought all that hatred from fans and her fellow contestants upon herself. If the judges bring her back as a wildcard, then I will not be watching.

Yeah, the results are pretty straightforward on this one.

Tatiana's behavior is definitely a turn-off. She's like a walking mood swing. She's emotional, yet tries as hard as she can to be calm, when god knows she can't do it. She almost broke down whe she found out she wasn't in the top 12 last night.
