I've missed the last two audition episodes but I don't know whether to just skip to the chair part?

Watch at least the ep where the top 40 is revealed. There's a guy who looks like Santa that makes the Top 40.

[Braden]

Okey dokey.

I'm going to catch-up tomorrow.

[BBfanUSA]

The overs 25s have been decided for the liveshows.

Spoiler:

Lillie,Jeffery Gutt, James Kenney, and Rachel Potter are through, Lillie and James deserved their spots. Lorie was the last out

Only 4 girls have performed

Spoiler:

Bree Randal, Khaya Cohen, Jaime Pineda, and Ashly Williams are in the seats right now

[Donovan.]

Lillie was so amazing last night Rachel was awful and at Lori throwing shade at her excuses. It just seemed like the first four acts to go would get a chair no matter how bad they were, I didn't like that. Kelly and Demi knew that there were better acts that were going to come up, but they didn't want to have to send them home face to face.

I really couldn't tell if the crowd were booing the act they didn't want taken out of a chair or the act that they wanted out of a chair, because they'd boo somebody and then cheer them. And whenever a switch needed to happen, the camera would span to the booing crowd, and there would be lots of people shaking their head no.

[Black Dagger]

I ****ing love Ellona. I'm getting Jessica Sanchez vibes.

[Donovan.]

Both of the categories look pretty good so far. But how the **** was Demi even considering getting rid of Ellona to keep Jamie. Jamie was good, but there wasn't anything special.

I'm so glad Danie Geimer did well again, I was scared that I only liked her because she chose that song from the AHS commercials.

[BBfanUSA]

Well, Rion is now probably the HEAVY favorite to win, better hope Top 16 is a judges cut in 3 weeks or else she'll win (barring a scandal where she lied about something or gets a BAD case of Bronchitis.)

The show finished 2nd last night behind Big Bang Theory which it was up against in the US.

I'm starting to get very confident that XFUS gets a 4th cycle. Hopefully if it does, Des Moines is one of the venues because I so wanna try out for the show.

Surprised by the love of Ellona here, especially by Dagger since she was a part of inTENsity two years ago (Albeit the only really good member, I couldn't remember how Arin was in Season 1)

I feel sorry for Rachel, kinda undeserved hate from the audience, it was recorded before Auditions week 2 were shown so.

[Braden]

I'm liking this four chair challenge. I'm so pleased for Danie Geimer because she's my favourite and her voice is beautiful.

I was pissed off with the way the judges treated Primrose. How can Simon sit there and judge somebody's attitude when he's basically taunting her with the opportunity of a lifetime. Fair enough, she made a mistake and could've chose a better song, but I honestly don't think it's all down to her.

It's fairly obvious that Kelly and Demi have preconceived judgements.

[Black Dagger]

Why are you surprised I like Ellona? I've always had a thing for Asian female contestants on talent shows, I have no idea why.. I liked Mahut in InTENsity as well lolol, she can audition and make live shows next year, I'd just love it if every season a new member of Intensity re-auditioned and made live shows now

[Black Dagger]

I think I've actually liked any Asian who has made live shows in a talent show I've watched

Kiyomi Vella (The Voice AUS)
Dami Im (X Factor AUS)
Jessica Sanchez (American Idol)
Ellona Santiago (X Factor USA)

Not sure if I've missed anybody lolol.

[BBfanUSA]

What would be so funny is if the show just stays on the air until the final inTENsity member makes the liveshows.

That would be hilarious.

I recall you hating inTENsity season 1 I think.

[Black Dagger]

I probably hated the fact they were a little cheesy and there was too many of them so there weren't an act you could relate to. I don't really remember series 1 much bar the Rachel Crow breakdown and liking Josh Krajcik a lot.

[Donovan.]

I only really like Rachel Potter's because of her attitude, until her Four Chair Challenge performance. Before that her voice just struck me as whiney. I felt really bad for Primrose since her first audition was so good.

I feel awful saying this, but I really don't want Rion to win. And I know she's thirteen, so I probably should say this, but she's kind of annoying. Like one of those people who always acts happy, but not like naturally happy. Like she forces herself to be happy. That's probably not as bad as I made it seem.

[BBfanUSA]

I do like Rion's voice but I feel like she's one dimensional compared to Rachel.

Also If it's a judges cut at Top 16, I wouldn't be shocked if Jeff Gutt is eliminated if Rachel isn't. Because I'm sure she's the favorite to leave out of the overs. Because he hasn't really proved he's special compared to season 2 and I know understand why he got cut other than being a WGWG

(Now they could just start double eliminating at Top 16, could be possible since public doesn't like the judges cut game that's been played the last two seasons)

Stuff I remember from Season 1,

Tiah Tolliver's Sweet Dreams
Rachel Crow's Performances (especially I'd Rather Go Blind and If I Were A Boy)
Drew's just a Dream
Chris Rene's Young Homie (It's been stuck in my head again)
Astro's Meltdown

[BBfanUSA]

Through via the Boys

Spoiler:

Tim Olstead, Josh Levi, Carlos Guevera, and Carlito Olivero

Groups in the seats (Only 4 performed and took those seats)

Spoiler:

Girls United, Wild Thingz, Glamour, and Restless Road (Manufactured Country Boy Band comprised of Andrew Scholz, Colton Pack and Zack Beeken)

[Donovan.]

Paulina saying no, when she had empty chairs She does not play around with those seats. Anyway, it's kind of cruel to put somebody in your final four when you know that you're just going to cut them later. Lol at her "please take a sit"

[BBfanUSA]

I like the groups that are through. Cannot wait for October 29th

[Donovan.]

I like that Paulina was taking it seriously and not just filling her chairs, but her final four definitely wasn't the four I wanted through. I really like the diversity within the other three categories though.

Spoiler:

Going with how the other three set them selves up with very diverse categories

Overs:
James- Pop Rock?(idk what to call him but it reminds me of Gavin Degraw)
Lillie- Soul
Jeff- Rock
Rachel- Country

Girls:
Danie- Indie Rock
Khaya- Jazz/Blues
Ellona- Pop
Rion- Country

Groups:
Alex and Sierra- Indie Rock/Pop
Sweet Suspense- Pop
Roxxy Montana- Gospel/R&B
Restless Road- Country

She really should have picked boys with stronger identities and more obvious genres. She's got the weakest set now. It should have gone

Boys:
Chase
Carlito
Tim
Josh or Timmy(probably Josh as he has the stronger voice while Timmy has the stronger story)

Which I've just realized is 3/4 of her her line up. Maybe it's just Carlos that throws it off for me. He's too similar to Tim.

[BBfanUSA]

By The way, Did anyone else laugh at how Paulina was saying take a sit?

Next Week if there is no World Series Game 7, there will be a special meet the Top 12 show. (I imagine it'll be a recap show with a bit of unseen footage of the Top 12)

There will be no results show for the Top 16, which is on a Tuesday. So the judges cuts will happen on that show.

Given how everything has been changed up for the 3rd season, I'm kinda expecting a brand new set. I think it might look reminiscent to XF5UK for some reason.

Don I'm looking at your sig and I cannot believe how young looking Lillie is. And she's a grandmum.

[Black Dagger]

I don't like this 4 judges cut thing s0b.

I'm bound to lose a favourite in each category

Boys : idfc tho, they are bad with a capital B, awful.

Girls: Danie or Ellona will go, probably Danie as she's the least harmless and most irrelevant, even though I love her loads (first cut)

Groups: Two manufactured groups and a heavily pimped Alex and Sierra who I love <3. But I like Roxxy so boo.

Overs: Jeff or James, whoever does the worse performance, but again I adore both, so awful.

[BBfanUSA]

Nah I think Khaya will go from the girls, and Rachel has a good chance to go in the overs.

I'd say the groups boot will be Sweet Suspense.

[Donovan.]

She's so perfect her hands give her age away though.

I'm pretty sure most of my faves are safe for the judge's cut. I think Lillie, Tim, and Alex & Sierra are certains for the lives show, but Lillie and Danie are my faves by far and I'm really scared for Danie Demi seems to like her, but she loves Khaya and I can't see the producers letting her get rid Rion.

[BBfanUSA]

The Artists are in LA, they're getting Makeovers and going through Song Choices right now.

They have two weeks to kill it so they better show that they're all amazing or at least the Top 11/12.

[BBfanUSA]

By the way The Top 16 show might be moving to Wednesday if the Cardinals win the next two World Series games. May as well since FOX has no other show to use.
