Lambert and Hall eliminations are quite fine. I thought Garcia would go because his Genie In A Bottle rendition was one of the worst I've ever seen, but he has promise. The other two simply aren't that good and have no excuse for not still being around.
Scott really is average and has no platform in this contest. I picked her to go home in the pool. Her performance was corny. A worthy selection to go bye-bye.
Epperly deserved to stay, because Miles was awful and because her body of work was better than Brown's.
I didn't think Lilly or Katelyn would go deep or even make top 5, but both out before Paige and Katie is just insane. Black vote plus girl next door vote save the day apparently.
I'm fine with both guys going home. I probably would've swapped Alex for Tim, but both are weak so I don't care much either way.
