Gotta be honest, based on all the commercials I’ve watched, TPTB could not project the outcome of tonight more. But I’m hoping for some good songs 🤞

Edit : The wardrobe dept is usually better at dressing the judges cohesively, but they’re kind of a mess tonight. Love Rita’s dress, though. 
 

Edit 2 : Ugly Sweater is a firecracker! Where was this personality in past weeks?

Goldfish vs. Clock will be amazing. I had no idea who Charlie Wilson was. I heard of the Gap band but I didn't realize he was so famous.

His voice still sounds the same. He's the only surviving member of The Gap band.

I ❤️ the Beets! That just erased the bad vibes from the beginning of the show. 
 

Edit : I don’t know how the judges are struggling this much(if its real). Their voices were super recognizable tonight.

I never recognize any of the voices. Not even the one time William Shatner was on.

If you want to know, I’m certain Beets are 

Spoiler

Clay Aiken & Ruben Studdard


 

Edit : Can I petition to have no dead/dying/ill wives next season? I get that everyone goes through shit, but this is one of my happy, relaxing shows and those stories just drag the mood down so much for me.

It's so obvious who the Beets are--I thought at least one judge would get it right.  

Seriously. If you've ever heard

Spoiler

Clay

 especially, sing, you'd guess it in a second

Yep, the spoilers I've found on the internet agree about the Beets.

And other spoilers:

Spoiler

Goldfish is Vanessa Hudgens
The Beets are Clay and Rueben
Gumball is Scott Porter
Poodle Moth is Chrissy Metz
The Clock is Thelma Houston
Seal is Corey Feldman

I hope the judges were being intentionally obtuse re: who the Beets are because they weren't even trying to alter their voices tonight.

Goodbye, Seal! As entertaining as that was, it was giving 'drunk uncle at a 4th of July party" vibes, not actual good vocalist.

If Seal is the person that was mentioned in the spoilers post it would make sense. Seal wants/tries to be singer but just isn't that good.   

EDITED: It was Corey Feldman. That bad voice was recognizable.I  recall when he was some morning TV show (maybe GMA?) and had girl back up singers dressed as angels.

I really with they hadn't used the bell already(and I can't believe I'm saying that since I hate the bell). Gumball and Beets deserve to be in the finals.

I'm worried about the Beets now, because groups don't  usually win this thing.

 

ETA: I only recognize the Gumball as an actor, but the IMDB says he was a singer before he became an actor.

Damn, I really wasn't expecting this given that they're big name singers as compared to Gumball. 

Edit : Wow, based on the looks on their faces, the judges really didn't know who Beets were.

I can understand why Rita wouldn't know who Clay and Ruben were because American Idol wasn't on in England. I don't know why the others didn't know them.

Noted, I haven't watched this show except for a couple of clips now and then that friends send me to see "Does this sound like XXX Person to you?". And I don't know, are the judges instructed not to be instantly right on all of their guesses? Because Clay is arguably one of the most recognizable voices from Idol, IMO.

Right.  I'm assuming it's simply the passage of time and they forgot what Clay sounded like since he's not the superstar he once was.  I recognized his voice immediately because I'm a fan, but I guess if someone doesn't follow him year to year, they forget his voice.

I've often suspected that they sometimes purposely don't guess correctly in the first round or two in order to amp up the suspense.  But in some cases, like the Beets, they simply didn't know.

I think they should do an all group season. It's nuts that they have duos and groups perform and they never win. Pentatonix should have won during their season.

I feel the same that Wilson Phillips should have won on the season 8.

Yay! Nick's wearing a turtleneck and the ladies look good, although they should lose the yellow feathers on Rita's outfit.

What in the hell is Rita wearing? I think this is the first time I’ve liked Jenny’s outfit more. 
 

Edit : Why does Clock seem to have an accent tonight? I’m not remembering it from past weeks.
