Yes, yes, it has to be done. American Idol is finally over. I can has my soul back nao?

( This finale needed less Golden Idol train-wreck performances, more Matt and Anoop. )

I am shaking right now, y'all. American Idol results show was intense. Obviously I need a life.

( Bring it American Idol )

The finale is only a week away, and the contestants do their level best to underwhelm in the first half, apparently. Idol attempts to lift the mood by giving back while I contemplate a nap. The judges are ridiculous as usual. Kris Allen takes it upon himself to save the entire episode. Good times.

( You can dance if you want to, you can leave your friends behind... )

( Possibly the awesomest song choice in the history of AI (Maybe), an Archuleta rehash, and... some shit I've never heard of. Woohoo! )

( Cut for spoileriness. )

( So bad it made my soul cry. Now with video and extra swearing! )

( Cut, in case someone hasn't watched last weeks episodes yet. And also, 'cause I'm long winded. )
