Um, in Tuesday night shows, do they start off with the person with the most votes, and end it off with the person with the least votes from last week?

Because, last week, the bottom 3 included Julia and Kimberly, and they were last...

And it seemed that Ruben and Cory were the standouts, and they had to go first.

Anyone know?

i REALLY DON'T KNOW FOR SURE. i THINK THAT THEY PUT THE LAST ONES LAST TO KIND OF KEEP THE SUSPENSE BUILT UP, BECAUSE EVERYONE CAN DISTINGUISH THAT THE GOOD ONES WILL MAKE IT, BUT THE WORSE ONE, ARE REALLY KIND OF HARD TO PICK WHO WILL GO...I DUNNO IF ANY OF THIS MAKES SENSE!!!

I'm not sure how it works but I think they try to mix it up, because if they saved the people with the least votes for last then it is possible that they may lose viewers towards the end of the show. I don't think the sponsors/producers would want that to happen. Just my guess though
