We open up tonight's show with the drunk prancing out onto the stage with a tu-tu on.  Ohhh, this is gonna be a good night everybody.  She says she wants to "see the contestants challenge their artistic integrity."  Deep.  
It's the music of Motown tonight & we start off with some Smoky Robinson & Barry Gordy.  Did y'all know that Smoky Robinson was on Days of Our Lives last year?  Yup, he made a cameo in the soap world.  He appeared to Marlena in the log cabin after her amnesia & after she had been brainwashed by the evil doctor.  I couldn't make this stuff up if I tried.
My Baby-Sweet-Baby:  Mattie sings "Let's Get It On" on the piano.  Let's.   
I am totally loving Matt's ensemble choice tonight.  Nice cardie, excellent tie, cool jeans, & honey voice.  I think Ben & I may have to separate.   
Kris Allen: Sings "How Sweet It Is", & apparently he blows Smoky away.  Whaaa?!?  Smoky, quit smokin'.  I thought it was alright, not great.  Basically pretty average.  I honestly think I can walk through downtown Nashville, & find about 10 Kris Allens.  Dime-a-dozen.  But all 4 judges really liked him.  I guess I'm wrong...or maybe I'm right & nobody knows it yet.
Scott: Royal Caribbean Cruise.  Finally, someone is starting to tell the truth...thank you Simon.  Scott, you have a stinky voice.
During the in-between time, Paula decides to bend down underneath the table to get something from her mini-bar...er, I mean to get some crayons & a coloring book for Simon.  This is quickly turning into a sort of weird, slightly uncomfortable variety show.  But then it gets even worse when she tells Ryan that she has something else hiding...but it's under her skirt.  Holy Mary & Joseph, Paula needs a pink slip.  
Megan: What is Megan wearing tonight?  Awful.  She's got a crazy up-do that looks like it's being drowned in hair spray.  But I do like the flower tucked in there.  I feel like she's way over-singing this song borderline on screaming at us.  Do y'all think so?  Eek, I hate this performance.  Looks can only take you so far...
Anoop-Dawg: Oh dear, there are so many pitchy things going on.  This is torture.  Waiting, waiting, slow as molasses, I'd rather watch paint dry...
Michael: He puts way too many riffs in this song.  Every single phrase has a trick through it.  This makes me pissed.  I'm trying to figure out why he's still here.  Is it that he's the quintessential picture of the American Dream?  The oil-rig token blue-collar worker living out his dream of going to Hollywood & making it all come true?  I dunno.  Simon couldn't wait for it to end & told Michael he had no chance of winning.  OMG, Simon!  Shame on you & the things you say.  That's why I heart you, though.  
Lil': Sings "Heat Wave" & sounds crazy good.  Whoa, Lil!  She's not scared to look sexy hot tonight.  Her dress is so sassy.  I had a good time watching her perform because I have faith that she will make all the notes.  I don't have that confidence in anyone in this competition except for her.  I can sort of relax when I watch her because there's no fear that she'll collapse or crack.  But the judges didn't really like it very much.  I think she'll get through though.
What-Will-He-Do-Next-Adam: Every time he gets on stage, I get kinda scared.  It looks like Adam has dressed up as Elvis tonight, what with that slicked-back hair.  I think he does a good job with the song.  I was happy to see Adam get a bit more low-key, rather than go crazy like he usually does.  Smoky gives him a standing-O.  And so does Kara.  Simon thought it was the best performance of the night.  
Danny: I gotta tell you guys, I'm liking Danny's voice more & more with each week.  He does amazing & is really great with the crowd.  Of course, I'm totally rooting for Mattie, but Danny's a close second.  My favorite part of his performance?  When he ran to the back of the stage with his back-up singers & did the dance with them.  How cute was that?!?  Awesome, Danny.
Allison: She sounds good with this song.  And she looks really cute tonight, too.  Randy thought it was blazin' hot, Kara thought it was amazing, Paula gives her comments with a colored-on mustache, & Simon thought she was a survivor.  OK, I have something to say.  It seems like after Adam performed, the judges could not have cared less about the remaining contestants.  They're in a fast time crunch, they're acting stupid silly, & their comments are kinda random...just like they're tired of being up there & commenting.  It kinda cheapens the whole thing, in a way.  That may sound crazy, but hey--sometimes I'm just a crazy gal.
OK I think Michael will be the one to go.  Lordy, I hope so.  
Smoke on, Smoky..

Good stuff gal! I don't know that agree with you about Lil, but I certainly agree with you on Matt and Danny. Also, the judges being stupid at the end, driving me loony! Keep it comin'.
Rhondi you are on a roll - Michael bites the dust! Another great call!
Nice commentary too. This show is getting zoo-y. I think all the judges, 'cept for Randy, are either on something or are totally drunk. Did you see Cara dancing like a crazy loon during Stevie Wonder's medley tonight? She was trying to out-do Paula's nutty dancing. And I'm b-o-r-e-d w/ these contestants now. Not a good year...
Only thing good about it is your hysterical recaps girl. Thank you!
Jason cant look at Smoky Robinson- he totally freaks him out. Something about his eyes....
Danny is #1 to me, but i am loving Allison...
I think Paula is off the show next year right? Rumor-mill is that she didnt renew her contract. I think that is why Kara came on board. Grooming a Paula.
I will say- we tivo and fast forward a lot. Like, always through the results show.
Ok this is my guilty pleasure of the week. Too funny! First of all this season I am more convinced than ever that the show is rigged and they have their choices of who 19 wants to sign and make a star before the real competition even begins. I know I'm ruining all the fun. I didn't want to believe it was true, but Kris Allen and Adam prove it to me.
P.s. Simon and Paula are getting it on...I'm just sayin'
