Let’s talk about Monday night’s TV!

THE VOICE: Some really good battles tonight, with mostly the right outcomes. It’s almost impossible for all the right people to stay, but it felt…mostly okay? And I’m really glad Rachel Christine was saved by Blake. It feels like they could be an interesting pairing.

AMERICAN IDOL: Look, I feel like so much of what I’ve been writing lately is complaining about things/formats, but this felt like a disservice to the singers. I really wish only the singers in jeopardy had sung, so it was more clear-cut who was singing for their lives. (Not to mention, it might have allowed the other singers to get an extra 10-15 seconds.) Or, on the flip side, don’t have this drastic of a cut this week? Either do more last round or double up for a few weeks in the next few episodes. It was just brutal.

But, also, wow. I didn’t think Nutsa would necessarily be a judges’ pick, but her rendition of “And I Am Telling You I’m Not Going” made her undeniable.

THAT’S MY JAM: Renée Elise Goldsberry’s Broadway rendition of “Sexyback”?!?! Incredible. But I was also really impressed by Kenan Thompson’s version of “Wonderwall,” in the style of The Sugarhill Gang. It’s always fascinating to see how they work around people who are not as, uh, vocally skilled. But Kenan’s “Wonderwall” was fun.
