really is not that good so far. The theme is "party songs". I haven't really liked any yet. Last week was way better.

I'm just now watching my tape. Big John was good, as usual.

Just saw J Rome. He's so far ahead of everyone else that this really isn't a competition. Big John second and Bridget a close third. I would have put Jason in 4th, but Kelly drowned him out some. I don't trust the voting. The last to sing is in trouble unless it's J Rome. The judges with people in the last two spots are going to lowball the last person up.

I realize I'm talking to myself, but Bee and Hat will eventually read this...maybe....

Olivia is awful with this Lady Antebellum song. She should have gone last week with the pink lady. She sounds flat much of the time to me.

Whoa! Jason was rocking it! I think he got over his nerves. He was better than he's been by miles. Makes Olivia look even worse than she was. He's not Big John, but I'm duly impressed. He came out. He also looks bigger and broader across the shoulders.

Do you notice that John Legend always throws a negative in his critiques about something when the performance is good?

Bridget was okay for me. She's got potential with her voice, but I I still put Jason ahead of her. I enjoyed his performance more than hers.

J Rome was terrific as usual, but I give a slight edge to Big John this week.

Big John
J Rome



Jason


Bridget










Olivia

Just finished watching. Jason is moving up. He was great tonight. Of course, j Rome and Big John are running away with this. Bridget needs to go.

I don't know what the ratings are for this show, but I have to wonder if it will survive to see another season.

i dont see this show gaining a big following. if they do give it a second season i think it may end there. i enjoy it for what it is though but i wouldnt be broken hearted if it died. it doesnt compare with idol, the voice, or x factor imo.

easily if j rome doesnt win this thing america is dumb.

Bridget needs to go.
her and olivia are easily the weakest of the 5 im glad olivia got the boot she deserved to go. bridget is pretty much guaranteed to go home next week. it should be a team sugarland final

Jennifer picked the best contestants, picks the right songs for them, does the best arrangements and is easily the best coach. You can tell how good she is by her movements when she performs with them. She's a lot more talented than I realized. I like her personality as well. She's too soft as a judge, though. They all are. The men are a little more honest, but not much.

I haven't seen tonight's episode yet, but what happened to Bridgette? For a while she's clearly been the 3rd best behind J Rome and John.

Also, what happens now that Robin has no competitors left?

Jason really was strong. He has come back nicely although I wasn't as impressed with him last week like I told you already.

I really was kind of bored with big John's and J Rome's performances this week. No doubt that they are the best left in this thing. I hope Bridget goes. I'm not a fan.

The final needs to end up being big John and j Rome. I think that would be a fun head to head to see.

I'm glad Olivia is gone. She didn't improve week to week I thought she got worse each show. Jason is rising but he doesn't have a prayer's chance at winning.

The ratings I have seen are not to great. This show is hovering around 5-7 million viewers. It is getting best out by re runs of shows on the other networks.

I have enjoyed watching the show. This is a nice filler before we get close to x factor. I'm looking forward to that.
But if this show gets cancelled, im not going to totally miss it or anything. It's just decent.

Not much, it seems. He just sits there and makes comments on the contestants after they perform. He sings a song each week with another celebrity and he wasn't so good at it, this week. Started out badly for me.

Bridget just wasn't that great. Nothing happened to her. She hasn't been that great the whole time. She's got a nice voice, but nothing special for me. Olivia was downright bad. I think she could improve and sing in lounges/bars/wedding receptions/backup but I can't see her breaking out as a star.

I especially like the version of "Georgia" myself and I usually get tired of that one. It's so overdone by contestants on AI, for example.

Good to see you, Bee.

Well, the only one's who have actually been good are the two guys on the same team. Everyone else was second fiddle.

Just now watching my tape. Whoa! Big John in the bottom two and Jason safe. Jason did a good job last week, but I expected him to be in the bottom, but with Bridget going home.

Strange night.
All J's left in this contest.

First Round:

Big John
J Rome
Jason

Second Round:

Big John
Jason
J Rome

I loved Jason's second performance. Vocally, I think Big John took it, but Jason was #1 was all around performance. That boy's come a long way.

watching duets right now. kelly looking better every week. i think america got the final 3 right. if jason wins this thing because of the teenage girl vote i will be severely disappointed. this is the j rome show he has to win.

eta: damn just heard john's first performance might have to rethink the j rome show

I know! Big John came out swinging. He's just not getting the female vote.

Now, what did you think about Jason's performances?
