Parker: Troy! Mac Parker. Ever hear of Planet of the Apes?Taylor was my favorite last night, even with dancing so twitchy and spastic that Jon Peter "Pen Boy" Lewis looks like an original B-boy in comparison. Before I send you off to Dan Fienberg's much funnier take, one other quick thought: Why is it that when the teenage girls sing mature songs, the judges complain that they want them to be "young" and "fun," but when the teenage guys sing them, the judges compliment them for being "old souls"? And why am I even listening to anything but the songs and Simon?
Troy McClure: Uh ... the movie or the planet?
Parker: The brand-new multimillion dollar musical. And you are starring ... as the human.Troy McClure: It's the part I was born to play, baby!
Rather than catch up on "Scrubs," "Shield," etc., I took most of the rest of the night off from TV to read a book -- but, since I'm a junkie, it was a book written by Greg House, M.D.

I'll put it to you this way: as I read each page, I can imagine the book-on-tape version being performed by Laurie in his American accent. It's a really funny, smartass book, the sort of thing House would enjoy reading.
Kevin is this year's John Stevens IV; he's so sweet and innocent that (as Simon wisely pointed out) the granny vote is keeping him safe.
Oh, and I should add that people as talented and versatile as Laurie annoy the hell out of me. How dare he be so good at so many things?
Back to the book...
This guy's take on the AI finalists (though a couple weeks old, now)is equally funny... though the notion that Hicks might win scares me. Because I like him.
