I hope not. Last year it was only a double elimination because no one got cut the week before because of Idol Gives Back.
I want someone to go this week. It would be too boring if no one left.

I don't think so...if you count up to the finale on May 21....it should be one a week (but then again...math isn't exactly my thing)

Zabasearch suggest no one will leave this week so probably a double elimination next week

yeah...and I just realized my theory doesn't work anyway...lol...

Does anybody remember how they did it last year? Was it during the Idol Gives Back show that they announced nobody was going home? Or was there a results show last year?

If I recall rightly I think there wasn't a seperate results show last year, like this year. The "results" were part of Idol gives back and then didn't happen and the final six were told votes were carried over. I think

I have been trawling the US boards quite a bit, and I can confirm that there is one elimination this week.

That's what I thought. Its one thing to give a freebie during that show...its another to have a whole results show that's a "sham"...but I won't be surprised..heh.

Oh...and I forgot to mention

Yes, that is what I recall, I did think the zabasearch info a bit strange as there was a whole hour results show

I think that it was different last year, IGB was part of the main show and it would have been a kick in the teeth for someone to get that high and then get voted off. This year it seems more of a stand alone show.
