I thought she looked like a way white-trashier version of LeAnn Rimes.

KZ, he sang terribly. He wouldn't have gotten the praise he did from the judges if he wasn't blind. He wouldn't have gotten to Hollywood week if he wasn't blind. How is suggesting he do a Simon & Garfunkle cover band mistreatment?

Jenna is clearing making her movie—didn't you see the subway sign for "Janie Jimplin" (or somesuch)?

Re: bad sound mixing—every performance sounded terribly distorted to me and made the whole show unenjoyable. I assumed this was to be blamed on my very low-rent local fox affiliate. Did others notice this too?

I tried voting for the first time ever last night. Not because anyone really moved me, I just wanted to finally see for myself how difficult it was to get through. I got nothing but busy signals for DWG. I got through for Anoop each and every time I tried. fwiw

Jamar was also amazing in the group round. Still bummed about this.

Weren't we only down to 72 after Tuesday's show? How'd they get to 54 at the start of Wednesday?

Alex, aka moldy closet kid, did make it. He's one of the only guys on the show I could see myself having a conversation with and not wanting to hang myself after.

Yeesh…she's not the least bit attractive.

Jamar and Danny didn't have to "duke it out"…at least in the episode I saw. I'm also shocked Jamar didn't make it through. I thought maybe he did poorly in some unaired stuff, but the people in the holding room also appeared genuinely shocked.

That's the line that got the biggest laugh out of me, so I guess I disagree that this bit went on too long.

Except as Nic DiPaolo just pointed out, they've recently roasted Foxworthy—how many redneck jokes are there? If DiPaolo is right, it's depressing how mega-rich Larry is.

How in the hell is tonight going to be stretched to 2 hours? Thank God for tivo. As for the original poster's question—it's called editing and/or producers telling the judges who to pass through.

Dead Wife Guy looks like Jamie Gold, the cheating douche that won the World Series of Poker a couple years ago.

The Summer Heights High take on this was freakin hilarious. He did the whole somber, almost in tears routine with the winners, and the complete opposite with the losers (who were mostly special ed kids anyway). Love that show—can't wait to see a poorly made American redo.

And you're ignoring the fact that the rules of this show are not published and it's widely suspected the producers pick the top four anyway (and/or they ignore what they claim are "suspect" votes—ie, votes for the worst).

AI isn't a movie. Nuking the fridge does not apply. Thank you.

Wrong, wrong, wrong, doctor. Just because that's what the Happy Days episode in question consisted of, that's not how the phrase is universally applied. Dunk nailed the definition. John Hein is a freaking millionaire.

World Cup Finals, no?

Wow, that was a lot of effort to go unacknowledged. I acknowledge
