During auditions I said to my wife that that football player had a great chance to win. He has been my pick since the outset. Close second would be the 16 yr old from outside buffalo. The red head who sings like Sinatara.

I love the show too

Glad they are gone:
Scooter Girl
Model Guy (what a cocky a-hole)
The guy who wanted to have sex with Simon ("come on Simon you know I'm good, you loved me at my audtion, please keep me Simon, I'm your favorite"),
Cocky 16 year old girl ("they are looking for american trash idol, the show will suck without me")

Sad they are gone:
Bikini model

Glad they are still in it:
Any hot chick
Football guy
Pimp daddy
Smiley 16 year old

Mad they are still in it:
Jesus and Noel

I resolved not to watch it at all again this year lest I be sucked in.

The main reason I got sucked in last year though was that the winner (Ruben) was from here in Birmingham. By the time he got to the finals it was almost impossible NOT to watch it. I think for the season finale it had some unheard of ratings here in the Birmingham TV market - I think I heard something like a 70-80+% share (meaning that % of TVs in the B'ham market were all watching that one show.) Events like the SuperBowl (or the locally beloved Iron Bowl) might garner something like 40-50% share at best.

I'm glad Michael Cowen is gone. What a sore loser. Ohh Simon you remember my other auditions you said I sang the best rendition of your favorite song .. wah wah.

I'm glad he's gone! That 16yr old red head is lucky he's still in it. His auditions were a disaster but the judges must have really liked his voice in the beginning.

Actually by "me too", I mean that we watch it, though I admit I don't complain. My personal motivations are towards apprentice, and obnoxious fiance - which is the best show in a decade :D

I agree my obnoxious fiance` is awesome!!

What a suck up, that Cowen is...so glad him and other male slut is gone as well.

The 16 y/o redhead kid is still in it for the one performance he did, sings broadway and crooning very well.

No one on the show could sing 3 times better, hell none of them are even in the same league as Ruben and Clay

i love the redhead.

i can't pick a fave yet, since i haven't seen a lot of these people yet. the chick that sings like macy gray grates on my nerves, mostly because macy gray gets on my nerves.

My prediction for winner of it all: the pink hair girl named Amy.

She sang Celine Dion's song better than Celine Dion.

I wouldn't be too quick to pick a winner yet. There are still a few people we haven't seen much of. For instance, that skinny anti-social chick with the spiky hair who was complaining about her groupmate's mother. I'm not saying she's good, but just that I haven't really heard her sing yet, and there are a few others.

I won't miss Scootergirl. She had a good voice but she was a bit too freaky and not in a good way.
