American Idol 16: Finale

But this season, I decided to try something different; I've been tweeting my thoughts on all the performances while watching. And, in fact, this new recapping method for me has ended up working really well, particularly because the show went live in every time zone for a few weeks, allowing me to truly live-tweet and experience this show in the moment with everyone else.

It's the second of three live-in-every-time-zone episodes! Once again, that new element brought a lot of excitement to the show. And once again, I live-tweeted every episode. I voted, like I always do. And then at the end of the night, two of the remaining seven finalists were eliminated.
