It's possibly my Ryan hate but I could swear she was a beat off during parts of the opening number.

I could swear that Ricky barely wanted to touch her while awaiting results. And she was decidedly not the one people went to hug when they were saved. But I'm completely irrational about her at this point.

I thought Chris had a good solo, but I thought they would go for a couple elimination and had no idea that they would not want to save Miranda.

I am stunned that nobody commented on Cat Deely's tragic shoe-boots.

I'm sad about Miranda - I thought she was cute as the dickens (the energy in that jive!) and she SLEW that ridiculous woodpecker hip-hop.

Also, Melanie could have simply walked across the stage and made more of an impression than any of those three terrible female solos.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

I didn't even notice Cat's shoes, my attention was totally focussed on the oddity of her hair and was that a flowered romper?

I kind of liked the opening number in it's retroness. I did pause it to feed the cats and didn't feel compelled to rewind to watch it as a whole, though, so guess that says something.

I'm disappointed that Miranda went home. And I'm annoyed that after the first episode clusterfuck that really should have sent Robert home lost me Nick last week and now Robert goes home just a little later. The whole season has been weird elimination-wise, I am disgruntled.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"

I'm wondering if some dancers have battalions of friends and relatives voting for them to keep them from being in the dreaded bottom three.

So apparently all three of the Soul Daddy restaurants from Next Great Restaurant have already closed.

Disappointed about Miranda, indeed, but glad about Robert. Especially since he went out on a "WOO!"

I think it's cool that three (at least?) of the top 8 on The Voice are out gay people.

Yes! That was awesome! Vicci, Nakia, and Beverly! I mean, I suppose any of the rest might be too, but who knows.

Apparently, Tyler is also an out gay person, according to TWOP, who had an excellent "The Voice vs. American Idol" side by side comparison.

ETA: Oops, he wasn't in the top 8--sorry! I'd actually forgotten who he was until after I posted the above and then looked him up.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Dammit, I was just thinking my summer TV schedule was about to open up some, with The Voice being over....and then I saw an ad for Big Brother. Can I just say no??
