American Idol Season 13 - Final 2 Perform

Hello fellow Idol watchers.  The end is finally near again!  It's been an interesting season.  New producer, better judges, better voting system, more and more close-ups of J-Lo and a final 2 worthy of winning American Idol.  Yet, the ratings are dwindling fast on this once powerhouse show.  I think America may just about be done with the Reality Talent Competition scene.  But, that won't stop us from having at least 1 more season of Idol next year (and possibly with all 3 judges returning).  Will I be back?  That remains to be seen, but something tells me I'll be commenting on the show until it finally goes the way of Lee DeWyze's career.  Interesting night of finale performances.  I don't think either contestant made any new fans at this point or motivated any extra voters.  I feel like I'm conflicted most years on who actually will win but for many years it's been due to the voting system.  This year it seems like each of these contestants has a compelling case for the crown.  I know who I was thinking was going to win for a few weeks now, but now I'm uncertain.  We'll have to do a quick recap and see if I change by mind by the end!  Let's do this.

American Idol Season 13 - Top 3 Perform

Hello Idol friends!  As warned, I am out of town this week introducing our baby girl to family and friends, so I was unable to provide a recap.  I'm sure I will find time to watch the episode and I already have a strong feeling who is going home.  So feel free to read on to see my prediction as well as a link to an interesting interview.

American Idol Season 13: Top 4 Perform

Hello American Idol friends, I'm back!  I tried to give a little warning that I'd be a little busy last week, but I'm a few of you wondered where I disappeared to!  Though, if you missed it, I posted a mini-Prediction Post totally calling the demise of Sam Woolf before it happened, not that it was hard to predict!  Anyway, due to my family upgrade I'm still stretched for time.  I should already give you a warning that next week I will be out of town and unable to cover the top 3 performances.  But, I'll be back for the finale week!  Anyway, it's one of 2 people going home tonight I'd imagine.  This recap will be as quick as I can make it.  Here we go!

American Idol Season 13 - Top 5 Perform

Hello American Idol fans!  As I've mentioned recently, by this point in time I should have welcomed a baby daughter into my family!  I'm scheduling this post in advance anticipating that I will not have a lot of time to be recapping the show this week.  Considering the results of Top 6 week, I am going to go ahead and make my prediction of who will be ousted this week without any knowledge of the performances. My pick is after the jump.
