This was kind of a mundane week for Idol. Dull mentor, lackluster songs, boring performance by Elliot Yamin, capped by an elimination that everyone knew was coming soon anyway.

I'm expecting Andrew Loyd Weber week to be even worse. However, Neil Diamond has potential! Much better songs to choose from and I bet Neil is going to be more entertaining than any other mentor this year. Still, what does it say when the only people they can get to mentor are artists from another time?
