 Topic: American Idol 2009

So anyone else still watching this? Even though it has been on for years, I have always watched it and reckon this is the best season in ages!!
My prediction for a winner is Danny Gokey (the one whose wife died only weeks before he auditioned). He is awesome!! Anyone else got a favourite?

Yeah I am loving it this season, even DH, who has always sworn the programme is gay, watches it with me.
I do like Danny. Probably one of the only ones I remember at the moment.
So gutted they didnt let his friend through though

HAHA..my DH is the same...he reckons it sucks but ALWAYS watches it!!
I know!!! I can't believe Tatiana is still there!!! I can't wait to see her leave and I bet she'll be bawling her eyes out. I don't imagine the US public will vote for her.
BooBoo.. I think we are only 1-2 weeks behind. They have just got to the final 32 here, and in the US they have just had the first 12 perform and put the first 3 people into the final 12..

I love Danny too although all the songs I've seen him cover so far have been sad songs that make me think they are all about his wife. I'd like to see him do something more upbeat cause he's cute and can really sing

I'm a huuuugggeee AI fan, to the point that I actually record them on My Sky and watch them later so I can FFW the ads.
My faves are Danny, Alexis (the 20yr old mum)and theres one other guy, can't recall his name.
Summerlamb, they were playing the previous weeks episode on Friday afternoons, not sure if they're still doing that now that its up to the top 36. Check TVNZ on demand.

I like Danny too, but I can't see him as a winner somehow. Not sure who I'd be picking though. As for Tatiana, I strongly agree with Simon Cowell's sentiments on her so far. Yes she has a great voice but ohhhhh do we have to go through the screams and cries and shakes every single time? LOL!

Tatiana is incredibly annoying! I can't believe they've kept her on for so long. Surely the public will vote her out?!!?
In fact I'm going to go and google and see if I can find out whether she made it through..........

I'm a closet fan but I love most reality shows unlike my friends. I get really hooked on American Idol during the audition stage as it's just so funny and cruel and then I've just gotta see who wins and if it's who I picked.
There's a few I really like but I can't remember their names as they've got quite a group of talented people.
Tatiana HAS TO GO but she's fun to watch. Surely they're just keeping her around to stir up viewer reaction as even though she's got a good voice I would say there are plenty who are more talented than her. She's certainly got an inflated sense of self
