BABY WE AIN'T GOT NO PLACE TO GO/I HOPE YOU UNDERSTAND: Scotty entered tonight's Idol finals as the presumptive favorite, and nothing about tonight performance-wise changed the inevitable. I did like seeing Lauren singing to her mom, though.
Is this the first time the performance finale had a halftime show? I did appreciated the relative judicial silence, but I was in no way the target audience for tonight.
Tomorrow: the two hour-plus parade of nonsense and frivolity followed by ten seconds of actual news. We won't be covering-it-live, but will be open for your live, lively comments.
