OK, I thought tonight belonged to Carly and Brooke with the two best performances. Nice showings from Kristy Lee and Alexandrea although nothing special. The rest were bad to horrific, especially Amanda Overmyer's butchering of one of the great classic rock songs of all time, "Carry On Wayward Son", and Kady's drop-dead horrible attempt at "Magic Man". I hate watching songs that I really love get trashed on national TV. I really start taking it personally.

Last night the boys weren't much better, with only Dave Archuletta, Chikezie and Michael Johns doing well.

I'm glad they have dropped the "best season ever" tag line because nothing is farther from the truth at this point!
