ABC's comedies soared and CBS' "I Get That A Lot" delivered another decent performance, but "American Idol" did enough to help FOX win on Wednesday night, despite the not-so-impressive sneak launch for "Good Guys."

‘American Idol’ has its two finalists

To nobody’s surprise, and to the relief of the “American Idol” executives, it will be Crystal Bowersox and Lee Dewyze singing in the finale next week. It’s hard to argue with the results. Bowersox has been strong all season long, and Dewyze has emerged over the past month to join her as a favorite. The contrast between the indie coffeehouse artist and the paint-store rocker — and believe me, you’ll hear that story line a zillion times this week — will be fun to watch.

The judges love him, but I don't really like his voice, and didn't think his performances were as good as the judges make them out to be. I guess people don't get it either. They obviously see something in him that music outsiders like me don't see. Although Casey was worst. I think even he was surprised he made it to the next round. Maybe people didn't the fact that Michael was pretty much begging to be in the top 3 during the previous show.
