We all just need to be mindful that Australia prettywell always runs behind you when it comes to TV shows...and having read the result tends to put a dampner on watching the show *LOL*
Typing the result in white would stop those that as yet haven't seen results from having it spoiled...if you want to read it then all you have to do is highlight it

I'm sorry Sharni. I don't think anyone has intentionally spoiled it for you. But waiting till two days later to post anything about the show is difficult if now downright unrealistic. It's hard enough to keep quiet until after the West coast sees the show, much less another day or two.
As far as us typing it in white........wouldn't it be just as easy to ignore the thread until after is shows in Oz?

Just out of curiousity ... when aired internationally, is it the same week as ours in the US? I'm not sure if that makes sense, but I feel like someone else I talk to from OZ made it seem that they were a couple of weeks behind in viewing (at the most two weeks).

Did anyone else watch it tonight? In my opinion they each had one good performance and one not-so-good performance. I think it's gonna be a real toss up as to who gets the least votes tonight.

You bet I watched it, it just ended!
I've about come to the point where I don't want anyone to leave. I'm not a fan of Anthony's by a long shot... but I do like the boy's voice. I think Carrie can usually outsing Vonzell, but I think Vonzell is absolutely adorable and a joy to watch perform. Bo... I love his voice and the boy is hot, whew!
I mostly agree...they all had one performance that was good and one that wasn't. Bo is the marginal exception. His country song was sort of Mr. Roger-ish but I still liked it.

I agree, Flutelady.............As much as I love Bo, I think his first song was his weakest. He should have chosen something more upbeat than Travis Tritt's "It's a Great Day to Be Alive." He's at his best when he does the more uptempo stuff. Carrie did well, but as the judges said, the band and their arrangement of her second song was the weak point.

Yup. I thought both Bo and Vonzell sounded fabulous on their second songs. I liked Bo's trim, too. I had to laugh at my daughter saying that Vonzell's dad looked like a pimp... lol

No i dont think so
This is an international site...and as such consideration should be given to all....not just your fellow Americans
It's not like i'm asking you to not discuss it for a month or something...an extra two days isnt gonna kill ya...then i too can join in the ongoing conversation regarding the current elimination...not ignore the thread.... then days later after the convo has died add my piece!

I live in Canada and there are shows that are discussed here that I watch but my viewing is a season behind. In fact Daniel Jackson returned long before I ever saw him on Stargate. I learned about it here in a thread. I just avoid any info I don't want to know about.

I don't think there's a simple solution...........so I'll just keep my opinions to myself on the program from now on. It's almost over anyway.....and it won't matter anymore.

Its 2 extra days for gawds sake....seems simple to me
I knew that fact about Daniel too by the way *LOL* but that didn't spoil the show because i wasnt informed how he returned or in what form...(as a human or an ascended being)

Sharni, what you propose is censure to appease one instead of a group. I would just avoid the thread if I didn't want to know about something....seems I've gotten that advice myself in the past.

EXCUSEEEEEEEEEE MEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE.................... I remember SOMEONE chewing on my butt because I posted right after the show....AND I apologized for it because I forgot about the time difference AND I haven't posted since.
Why is it any different for you?
Shall I retrieve the quote you said to me?
