I loved Melinda calling the producers out on their favoritism, and she even noted the lack of screentime she had received. It really is unfair that some contestants have built a fanbase by the time the finals have come around, and other contestants really haven't been seen yet. Good for her for getting that out there.

How cruel was it the way they acted like some were safe only to then boot them later? These result shows are a form of torture, and I refuse to watch them again. I wonder how they choose the ones like Janay who are 'in danger' only to find out they are safe. That's another way the producers can manipulate things (garner sympathy at the right time, or make it seem like someone is in danger a lot and needs to go).

"Every element, from the masterful picking to the gorgeous,
keening vocals and a song selection of tremulous grace,
thrills with authenticity and emotion..." - Entertainment Weekly
