I think I may have previously predicted that the David’s would be in the finals…so for the last several weeks, there haven’t really been any surprises.

We all knew that Brooke would never make it, and certainly not the apathetic alleged stoner Jason Castro who was finally removed last night. I’m a little surprised that it’s not Carly in the final three, but I think the showcase of tats finally got to the audience.

At this point, next week will be the only possible “big surprise” week of the season. Last season it was the Top 4 when Chris left. This time it will be a huge shocker if the final two is a boy/girl mix.

Honestly I don’t think that Syesha has any chance at winning the show, but she might give one of the David’s a run for their money into the finals. If that does happen, it will be this season’s big shocker moment for all of us. Those who still care that is. And I guess I’m assuming you care if you’re reading this, all two of you.

I wasn’t able to watch the performance show this week due to the magic of DirecTV not broadcasting the HD channel that I’d set as a season pass for AI. But from what I’ve read and heard, I didn’t miss very much. Actually, that’s not true - I saw exactly 11 minutes of the show - Jason’s final performance, and David Archuleta’s final performance. David was wonderful of course. We won’t talk about Jason any more.

Anyway…what I’m really looking forward to now is whether Dale will ever get kicked off Top Chef, and the season premier of So You Think You Can Dance coming up in just a few weeks :-).
