No studying? Damn! Next thing they'll tell me is I'll have to eat jelly doughnuts or sleep with a supermodel to get things done around here. I ask you, how much can one man give?

Yeah, I wasn't crazy about Handsome Lead Singer (Michael?) on this one. He's got crazy amounts of charisma and stage presence, but I like some of the other voices better. Plus I'm not sure he's singing in a healthy way.

Also, is anyone else tired of hearing the judges say "you guys" every five words? Drives me nuts. (A tiny little nit to pick.)

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

It'll be up on Hulu tomorrow. And Hulu has clips of the individual numbers so you can ignore all the filler.

Awesome, thanks.

I hadn't noticed, but now it will....

There is seriously nothing better for my soul than having a cocktail and tearing up watching this show.

Well, that was my favorite Urban Method performance (Before He Cheats) and I don't even particularly care for country.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

Jesse, It also replays on Oxygen, if you get that.

We're very stretchy. - Connie Neil

Yeah, I was able to watch last week's ep on the Oxygen rerun (IIRC, it was Tuesday night at 10 eastern).

I called Delilah's getting booted after their performance, and I was sad to find out I was right about Afro Blue being in the bottom two, as well. The judges will forgive not connecting with a song, but they will not forgive bad notes and missed harmonies.

The Aires might have been a bit off this week, but their taking off their hats for Sara's critique was so darn adorable!

Next week is R&B week, so Afro Blue can work it!

The one group remaining that I cannot love is Vocal Point. Cute mormon boys, okay, but they are not interesting!

Although R&B is still not jazz -- I was glad it was acknowledged that they are always out of their genre.

Well, no, but R&B is closer to jazz than Twisted Sister or Carrie Underwood.
