Another American Idol shakeup???

During last night's show wrap-up, apparently FOX messed up the vote phone numbers on the screen. Anwar, Mikalah, and Jessica were the victims. Tonight, there will be another HOUR show with added live segments to allow for the re-vote. I suppose I'll watch - heh, what else is on Wednesdays at 9pm (how quickly I've forgotten "Alias")??

This fiasco smells worse than the cheese of Constantine's performance....why??

1. It was not a live show - what intern was in charge of proofreading the phone numbers?
2. The numbers were not corrected after they aired on the East coast...even though there was time to do so.
3. FOX needed to dump "Point Pleasant" to try to win the week of ratings...and an AI "emergency broadcast" is just what the doctor ordered.
4. Mikalah (I hate that she's stayed around long enough that I know how to spell her name) was going for sure this week - so FOX wanted to cause a sympathy vote reaction for her....I fear what that means for Scott.

TVJunkie - please get thyself to the salon to help us figure out this convoluted season....
