Sure is. #lowstandards

Could that mean that they're finally beginning to tone down #lowstandards? (Not overscoring the males as much)

There's no voting tonight. That's next Tuesday.

I might prefer the lack of extra set pieces. This could make it more like the first few seasons. I'm also hoping that Derek can somewhat compensate for the excessive nitpicking by way of his scoring. This could be a refreshing change. Same thing goes with no live band. Will #lowstandards finally be toned down?

I can't agree more. But next season will be 10 years since Season 10. Where did the time go?

I remember that too. Even on day one, #lowstandards were there. Maybe after all this, the judges will be less harsh on female contestants. That's also one of the reasons I didn't like the Season 1-27 elimination system (lowest combined total). Thank goodness they changed it to judges' choice last season so that shocking eliminations can be stopped. I totally agree!

There's no way it's been 15 years. Where did the time go?

One thing I'm hoping for is for this to be All-Stars 2. It's been 8 years since the first All-Stars season, and 15 years since this show premiered. I'm also hoping they keep the judges' decision for every elimination, and maybe the scoring system could be fixed.

I seem to agree with this. Plus, I can't believe it's been 10 years since Season 9.

I hope that by the time S19 rolls around, the COVID-19 pandemic will be over.

Congratulations, Just Sam!!! At least we got another female winner in a sausagefest season.

If there is anything good this season, maybe we can salvage it by getting another female winner in Just Sam. This season has otherwise turned out to be another sausagefest.

I think it's pretty gross that there is only one female in the finale this season, out of a Top 5 (20%).

I surely agree.

I'm hoping that Julia makes the Top 5.

Team Waffle for me.
