Tonight marked that night forIdols eighth season. (No sense putting Paula legato! NEXT: Time for Lil to go? Credit: Lewis Jacobs/NBC And even on that count, the judges failed. Sure, Simon noted Lils performance was like something out of a wedding, but wait! Lets cut to Ryan interviewing Lils adorable daughters! And then lets have Randy scoop up one of the little cuties in a long-lasting hug. Oh, just like that, everything was over except the tears and the sympathy voting....

They all haveAmerican Idolscrapbooks and colorful poster boards about theirAmerican Idolobsessions that they probably made for class. Ohhhh theyre so young. Youre pretty old, you know?

American Idolis back, friends! Hey, remember last season whenLaine Hardy won? Neither does this show! That intro is basically like, Laine Hardy won, BUT DID YOU SEE ALEJANDRO ARANDA? Apparently, he is being credited for changing this entire show. Case in point:Idolis still clinging on to the notion that people want to see bad auditions. Katy fights for her but ultimately loses. A weird no but okay, boys. To, as Katy so aptly puts it, the oval of judgment!...
