There were no more saves left for Casey "Growler" Abrams this time around. Nope. This time around that strange "American Idol" bubble he seemed to be living in, you know, the same one that carried lame drunken uncle Taylor "Soul Patrol" Hicks all the way to his ridiculous win over the vastly superior Katharine McPhee, well, last night that bubble BURST. Thankfully.
SEE: Casey Abrams SAVED on American Idol
Come on, just admit it. You were tired of his growling, lumbering, lameness. You were tired of listening to the pathetic "judging" panel fawn all over him, telling him how original he is and what a true artist he is. You knew he had all the commercial appeal of a run-over squirrel. You know its true! And so, now he's gone. Never to be heard from EVER again. Okay, except for on the American Idols Live! Tour... but then nothing after that.

Joining Casey in the bottom three were Jacob "Saved By The Skin Of His Teeth" Lusk and Scotty "It Had To Be Somebody, Should've Been Haley" McCreery. This is clearly a message to Scotty to stop listening to any and all advice he's getting about changing it up and all other nonsense and just deliver his deep baritone country crooning the way he does best. Annnnd how about the way they worked Jimmy Iovine's critiques of the performances and predictions into the proceedings? WELL DONE producers. It seems they too have become keenly aware of the gaping hole left by Simon Cowell's departure. This current panel is USELESS at providing any real constructive criticism or useful advice or real sense of what's happening with these contestants. So they've gone to the only person on the show who's been offering any real help to fill the void. If Jimmy isn't sitting in Simon's former chair on the judging panel next season, the producers are ker-azy!
