"Idol" 2007, Part 13: Four down, eight to go

I'll be honest: I couldn't make it through the entire hour-long elimination episode. Typically I can live with the filler, but an ENTIRE HOUR to cut four people? That's just too much. (Plus, over on "Survivor," the contestants were falling on their asses on a giant Slip N Slide. I can't resist that --- half-naked Boo, y'all! Half-naked Boo!) So I flipped back and forth and caught snippets: three of the axings, the atrocious cover of Tears for Fears' "Sowing the Seeds of Love" (BTW: Why give the man who cannot start a song the opening part of a group number? Hello?); plump Fantasia singing. Overall, I'm glad I skipped most of it.

Our first four bootees are: Paul Kim, Amy Krebs, Nicole Tranquillo, and Rudy Cardenas. None of them will be missed. But I was shocked that Antonella or Alaina weren't among the first to go (they were easily the worst last night, and America hates Antonella Barba), and that Paul didn't squeak by for another week. Delighted to see Rudy and Nicole go. They were both awful.

Interesting to note: Sanjaya was in the Top 4 guys. Can someone explain that to me? Guess I was right about that sympathy vote...
