m1key Posted March 28 Share Posted March 28 (edited) looks like my format prediction was wrong already lol. Futon Critic reveals that first live show cut is Top 20 -> Top 14, and the theme of the Top 14 episode on Sunday 4/21 will be Rock & Roll Hall of Fame. Not sure why they are repeating that theme two seasons in a row but it's very broad so I'm fine with it tbh. http://www.thefutoncritic.com/showatch/american-idol/listings/ Edited March 28 by m1key Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Based on the taping schedule, there will be 11 episodes in the voting round period total (from Hawaii to Finale), the most of the ABC era thus far. We won so hard!!!!!!! My *updated* format prediction is as follows: Sunday, 4/7 - Hawaii Group 1 Monday, 4/8 - Hawaii Group 2 Sunday, 4/14 - Top 24 Results/Top 20 Perform Monday, 4/15 - Top 20 Results/Top 14 Reveal Sunday, 4/21 - Top 14 Perform/Top 12 Reveal Monday, 4/22 - Top 12 Perform/Top 10 Reveal Sunday, 4/28 - Top 10 Perform/Top 8 Reveal Monday, 4/29 - Top 8 Perform/Top 6 Reveal Sunday, 5/5 - Top 6 Perform/Top 5 Reveal Sunday, 5/12 - Top 5 Perform/Top 3 Reveal Sunday, 5/19 - Top 3 Finale regardless if it is right or wrong we are going to be getting a strong format that will allow for contestants to have growth arcs so i can now sleep peacefully *edited after Futon Critic update. i have a feeling the judges save will be brought back which could change around the numbers after we get to Top 14. Looks like the Top 14 is the cutoff for the semifinals. Edited March 28 by CarmenSandiego Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TeamAudra Posted March 28 Share Posted March 28 (edited) 1 hour ago, RTV said: https://idolchatteryd.com/liliana-tovar-dalton-dropped-out-of-american-idol “…Her mother Christa also posted the news of Liliana’s departure from the show on Facebook. Liliana “decided to withdrawal from the competition last Fall; however was delighted American Idol aired her episode nonetheless!” Sometimes, the televised singing shows make very odd editing decisions. Remember, the auditions we just finished watching were filmed last fall. Hollywood Week was filmed in December. Yet American Idol dedicated four a half minutes of a late March episode to introduce us to Liliana. Not only that, they pre-released her audition clip, using it to promote the final audition show. Only to turn around and delete it from their YouTube channel sometime after Sunday. Seriously, check it out. They have taken down Liliana’s audition video….” Edited March 28 by TeamAudra Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
QueenKalie Posted March 28 Share Posted March 28 It is weird since she clearly withdrew before even going to Hollywood week to begin with. So they had plenty of notice with her. I get showing her on tv because it was a cute story / performance so why not show it. But posting it on Youtube and then taking it down later on is bizarre behavior though.

TeamAudra Posted March 28 Share Posted March 28 Her video is still up on all other platforms. They shouldn’t have deleted it from YouTube. They’ve known since last fall and chose to air it anyway. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TeamAudra Posted March 28 Share Posted March 28 (edited) Just now seeing that Will sang “Ain’t No Sunshine” in Hollywood. Between that and his T24, he’s really angling for that crossover vote. I’ve actually seen clips online of him performing that song at his shows. He genre hops quite a bit. I’d put him more in the Stapleton lane than I originally thought.

m1key Posted March 29 Share Posted March 29 that performance was INSANE. all of their abilities were perfectly highlighted in their solo sections and it sounded even better when they came together. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TeamAudra Posted March 29 Share Posted March 29 1 hour ago, thevoiceisthetop said: It was just OK for me. I’m not a fan of overdone runs, and that’s where Odell took it. He can clearly sing, though. I thought Abi was a little off-pitch at times, especially in the beginning. I’m just not a fan of the tone in her high notes. Maybe she’ll grow on me over time? Julia’s tone doesn’t work for me either, but she’s a good singer. I’m expecting the audience to like it. They’re all a bit old-fashioned, and the older viewers will eat this up. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wildestinvegas Posted March 29 Share Posted March 29 (edited) jesus f christ. abi is just amazing. she just knows when to go big, when to pull it back, when to use her head voice, when to go full chest. just a great singer with pretty good instincts, i think she will go really far. odell and julia were great as well but odell did WAYYYY too much with all the runs and julia was on her higher range for her entire solo, would’ve liked to see more dynamics from her but her tone is beautiful and so soulful, she’s def gonna be a vocal powerhouse. my ranking would be the one below. taking a quick look at facebook, it seems like they have the same. 1. abi 2. julia 3. odell Edited March 29 by wildestinvegas 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KelseyW Posted March 29 Share Posted March 29 Abi and Julia proved that they deserved the platinum tickets... Past ones were meh for me... And most didn't survive Hollywood week in past seasons. My only complaint with all 3 of them showing what they can do vocally? There was no melody or beat to the song. Just runs. If I didn't know what the song sounds like originally I would've thought man they made that their own! Still really impressed with our final two girls though. Ah in my dreams!

If that's not the case this season that is a great sign. tbh i blame the song choices for some reason they love to do upbeat useless songs in hawaii. it does make for a potentially very strong moment for the one or two contestants that get ballads though, and i'm sure that's what they intended for kenedi.

QueenCami Posted March 30 Share Posted March 30 ATEEEEEEEE julia is ridiculous that first note she hit was insane. abi and odell were excellent as expected but i wasn't familiar w/ julia so that was a shock for me 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
QueenCami Posted March 30 Share Posted March 30 i do agree that there were a few too many runs for both abi and odell. i'm a big running fan but i think that when the runs fill up all the empty space in a song, it becomes over done. still amazing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
