Am I the only one who is UNASHAMEDLY loving it?

After watching Hollywood week and after, I'm wondering 1. How deeply and truly demented those poor talentless fools were in the first round. 2. How comes X-Factor isn't as challenging? Chico and The McDonald Brothers (and a lot more) would never have made it so far if they were in America.

It'll be one show I'm most definitely not going to miss next week

Thank God for DVRs! I've never been able to keep up with anything because I never remember the next time they are on. I will set it to record Greys.

I've watched several seasons and loved them, but the pointless Cat Deeley inserts are driving me mad. I don't need some Vacuous English woman to interpret American idol for me. I watch in part because it's American. Whoever is responsible for her humourless scripted bits should re-think and I really hope wer're not missing Seacrest to make way for her.

I don't get the point of Cat Deeley either. She's just damn annoying and most times we just fast forward the recording through her bit.

Who watched this weekend? Lakisha blew the others away. The men on the whole were shocking apart from the human beatbox.
I still can't stand Cat Deeley intruding on my programme. Programme producers from ITV, if you're mnetters and reading, get rid of Cat, she's a waste of your money.

I'd buy Lakisha's album today!

Are you the actual Nadine Baggott of non celebrity priced pentapeptide fame, or just an imposter?

An imposter? moi?

I made a hash of the results show this week. I'd recorded and whizzed through and thought only one boy and girl had gone but just visited the Idol website to find 2 of each went!

I have seen bits and thought Cat Dely was awful

I used to like her over here, but on American Idol, she doesn't come across well

Is Lakisha the mixed race girl with the curly hair? Haven't been following it to the letter, but watched this weekend (didn't see the guys) but thought this girl was really good. I agreed what they said about the dog walker girl, she was all over the place.

Agree about Cat Deeley.

Jennifer Hudson watch out indeed! This girl is amazing!!!!!!! As soon as she started to sing I got goosebumps!

I think Simon has found his American Leona! She is a class above the others. The boys were cr*p!

Now let's turn our attention to The Amazing Race

It's not the girl I thought it was.

Er, I thought Melinda was as good as Lakisha.

Can't bear the way Cat Deeley has become this vacuous, blonde Americanised presenter. Awful.

I agree Mars. I recorded the prog and watched a few times and each time I got the goosebumps.

She just comes to life when she starts singing.

here she is again
