American Idol Recap - Down to the ELITE 8 ... But Wait, MAYBE NOT

   American Idol 2010 has been pretty interesting and "watchable" this season to say the least. It was the 7th week for eliminations and viewers, including yours truly, couldn’t have been more surprised.

   Early on in the show, the three remaining ladies of Crystal Bowersox, Siobhan Magnus and Katie Stevens were announced safe...of course, not without the over dramatic and often dragging Suspense!!

   The group of guys that were pretty assuredly safe was Lee DeWyze, Casey James and Tim Urban.  Shockingly, Big Mike Lynche was on the bottom along with Aaron Kelly and Andrew Garcia...yet, Tim Urban was granted safety for the week over a more appealing and more talented Mike Lynche?? Proves the power that A.I. has over TEENY BOPPERS!!

    In the end, Mike Lynche, didn’t get enough of America’s votes to move on to the next week. WHAAAAAAAT? How is he under Andrew Garcia??  Voters had to have thought Big Mike was safe and didn't vote ... sending him to a close "early exit". But, Big Mike sang a rendition of "This Woman's Work" to vie for the only “save” vote allowed to the judges. The song and his performance worked as it was unanimously decided that he should stay.

    Below is the list of the remaining acts and the odds of them taking the crown. And since we constantly love to remind ourselves of our shortcomings, we also added the original top #24 list with our very own top pick big winners ...
