Am I the only one that thinks Taylor Hicks is the worse Ameican Idol ever? I find him very mediocre.?

Not at all. I have heard that people say he appeals to older people (I am 62) and he makes me sick to watch how he prances around on stage. Also, given the fact that he has made his living in show biz the last few years is not fair to the other contestants. Without his "gyrations" he is less than a mediocre singer. Kat should have won on talent any day of the week.

Chris was the only one who's progress I paid attention to, so I was shocked and disappointed at first...not so much anymore...cuz the boy has got it.  I'm sure you know by now that Fuel has offered him a spot singing for them.  If he had won the contest the folks at "Idol" would have owned him for the next who knows how many years...so the way I see it he's much better off.

When Chris was booted, my whole family swore we were through with the show for what's left of the season.  Being creatures of habit that we are, we sat through the program (albeit we DVR'd it for about 20 minutes before we started it so we could fast forward Elliot Yamin's songs.)  Katharine and Taylor are good, but not compared to Chris.  Like someone already said, though, he'll do fine, maybe even pick up with Fuel.

No, Stevie is my favorite and American Idol really sucks this season, might I add. Stevie and one of the bald dudes that sings like Bon Jovi are the two best on there. This season sucks hugely though.

I think Chris's time was coming.  He's an amazing singer and he'll have a career no matter what but I was getting a little bored with him.  It's the same every week.  I think Katharine will take the win this year!

Amen.  Idol always wants to set up a pop or country singer.  It's crap.  Chris is a rocker, let him rock.  Even if he gets voted off, he'd have a record deal within days, so either way he wins, and we win.

i am soo mad! how could they do that? i think american idol is rigged. he had too many fans to be the bottom one. katherine should have been the one to go. but i think chris will get a record deal soon from someone else anyway. he has enough talent and doesnt need american idol to make that happen.

I think she's a bad singer, in my opinion anyways. The only reason people voted for her because her dad was in jail and they'd show these "sob stories" of her just because her dad was in jail. In my opinion Melissa McGhee and Brenna Gethers were bad singers, but Melissa's parents (both) were in jail. Brenna also lost two fathers in her life. Back to the point, I agree with you and I think that Chris, Paris and Taylor blew me away too! Katherine blew me away too!

omg i so think that is unfair.  Kathrine so should have gone out. she is soo robotic (if you know what i mean)  Chris is the best evr to be on American idol!

Well, Katherine McPhee wasn't an American Idol (remember, Taylor Hicks won).  Out of Carrie and Kelly, I GREATLY prefer Kelly Clarkson- Kelly sings good music while Carrie sings country garbage.

I thought Chris would win the whole thing. But noooo. Too many people had to vote him off. Taylor is good, but he is nothing compared to Chris.

I personally have been a fan of Taylor Hicks since way back.He hasnt changed who he is,and Katherine(no offense to any katherine fans) is using her looks too much.Shes went from sweet and nice to kind of,sleezy.I mean,i liked her at first she was very talented and she still is.Her actions just proves she is changing it up too much,just to sway votes and win.Taylor himself hasnt changed.His auditions each week are consistant and are getting better.He isnt like any previous idol winner or contestant and i believe he deserves to win.We shall see who wins,good luck to them both!

It's horrible!!!! No, im in denial....i'm going to turn on idol next week and he will be there!!!.....he will be there I tell you, he will!!

it was the best for the IDOLS as far as songs choice except for Kelly  I really want her to leave as she is just too country...... & she is acting dumb but it will get her in the end........... I wish people would vote for voice talent not LOOKS......

This week's installment aired on Tuesday night, when Taylor Hicks, Katherine McPhee, and Elliot Yamin each performed three songs.\n\nOn Wednesday night it was revealed that Elliot Yamin was eliminated. \n\nThey did a fancy new thing where they showed that each of the three received votes around 33%. It was only a matter of .20% or so separating the frontrunner from Elliot.\n\nOn Wednesday next week the winner of American Idol Season 5 should be reviled. Oops, I meant "revealed." Or maybe I did mean "reviled." I wanted Chris Daughtry to win...
