Bye bye bye to Amy Davis (no surprise there) and Joanne Borgella.

I agree - the women definitely outsung the guys last night. Any thoughts on who's going home?

I'm not sure I can watch

I'm not sure I can watch this show anymore. I was so off with what the judges thought, I thought I was watching different performances than the rest of the world. Why are they ga-ga over Amanda Overmyer? I thought that was a horrendous performance, and she sounds like she's smoked 10 packs of cigarettes a day since she was born.

Way to go, Mollee, bringing up Haley Scarnato and reminding me of her reign in short-shorts! Totally forgot about her!

Highlights of the night for me were Asia'h Epperson and Ramiele Malubay. And overall, I thought the girls were better than the boys.

So far, no one has knocked my socks off during this first round of competition. Sad :(

I can't help but think back to this time last year where we were delighted with stand out performances by Melinda Doolittle and Lakisha Jones. Those stand out performances are what make the show worth watching. Flu or not, I need someone to give me the tinglies.

Maybe it was the poor theme choice or maybe it was frightening screen images playing behind the contestants. Whatever it was, I think next week can only get better.

Here are my thoughts:
