Yeah, but I'm scared now that somehow Team Annoying is gonna pull it out and we're not going to lose Spike again. I don't think I can take it.

Compassionately intolerant

I have to say, never having seen an Idol finale before, it's cruel and inhumane treatment...and I don't mean just for the final two. Sheesh. There were fun bits but too few in amongst the shameless product placement...Guru Pitka. Really?

I loved DC's tearing it up with ZZTop. They seemed to be having as much fun as he was. And Bryan Adams! A guy who really loves his work. Maybe he'll give the idols some advice on how not to go nuts.

While I was pulling fierce for DCook...I'm a cougar, sue me...I was still surprised. Nice to have my season-long obsession validated.

I vow not to watch another episode of AI, ever again. Remind me I said that...

They look like they are doing a really good job of self-destructing, but it may not be HatAssHat who goes.

"We have trust issues." Mylar

Yeah, that's what I said right after the end of S1 after stating that AI was just a slicker version of Star Search. And now I've managed to survive John Stevens, JPL, Sanjaya, Jasmine, Camille, KLC, and all manner of othe disasters. I just can't quit AI.

I think that's exactly right. In fact, I think Dale might be going down. But I hope it's Lisa. Sourpuss.

Sadly that's my fear as well. Hopefully, if he does, it will catch up with Lisa and Hatass really quickly. If Dale does last, the one of those two that doesn't will be toast next week barring a SERIOUS meltdown on someone else's part.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

The leader goes home, traditionally -- although Lisa is such a suck-ass saying that Dale was responsible for her bad food!

I am more and more excited to see a Stephanie/Richard final, and I really hope nothing goes horribly wrong on the way there. It would be so pleasant and delicious!

"We have trust issues." Mylar

Aww, but I lurve, Antonia! Although, I do agree that Stephanie is a better chef. And Richard is a superstar.

As for this crew, can we just send them all home now? Dale's post-Judge's Table behavior was so, so nasty. It's not his fault that Lisa couldn't cook her way out of a wet paper sack, but he did a suck ass job as executive chef and now he's being a baby about it.

I do enjoy the Antonia. This is stupid, but a thing I really like about Stephanie is that she's calm and nice, but still has a potty mouth. Just like me! Motherfuckers.

Punishingly Intricate

Oh BULLSHIT, Top Chef!

God I HATE that "Lisa" HATE!!! ugh

glad that Antonia, Lisa, & Richard pulled it off though. Their food sounded delicious.
