Ok, this is the last of it – one hour tonight and two hours tomorrow night (the “Elevator Show”), and then it’s our turn to start voting.

But before we find out who makes the Top 36, I’m curious – who here already knows the Top 36? It’s out there if you want to find it, so has anyone spoiled themselves already?

Also, if you haven’t done so already, get yourself registered for the [American Idol Top 36 Pool](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=505371)!

I don’t see a thread yet so I’ll get one started–final cuts are happening now!

I don’t like the way this one started out. Why show the night first, then go back to the auditions? I got confused, although part of that might have been my 3 year old talking to me.

Hmm…this is the first time I’ve heard Blind Guy’s voice, and I am not all that impressed.

I hate the song “Hey Delilah”. I can’t believe how many times I have to hear it.

Yeah, I found out. I won’t say, but it looks…O.K. Some odd choices if it’s accurate, but we’ll see.

I’m not really taken by anybody yet. At this point I just want to see Tatiana get cut, and/or see “Norman Gentle” continue to annoy Simon.

What the heck does Paula have around her neck? Is it in case Oil Rig Man needs to do some emergency repairs?

I will have to give up on the season if Crazy Mermaid Girl makes it through.

Someone, please…reassure me that there’s no way in hell that Tatiana isn’t getting cut tomorrow.

Oh, for heaven’s sake. You have to be kidding me.

Why oh why did they let Tatiana through? I am speechless.

Some of the ones that I really like made it through, so I’m glad for that. Some of the ones that I don’t care if they make it to Top 32, but really wanted one more night made it too. Surely surely, if Tatianna makes it to the Top 32, America won’t vote her through further?

And what’s up with the Judges’ Mansion!?!?

We’ll need someone to reassure both of us, Jadis.
