AMERICAN IDOL

Fox, 8:00 p.m. ET

 
Last night’s competition show was, indeed, competitive. Jimmy Iovine, who was backstage (or, at the end, on stage) to evaluate the three rounds of singing from the three remaining contestants, awarded one round to each – but gave the overall night to Candice Glover, who ended and stopped the show with a dynamic version of “Somewhere” from West Side Story. It’s the voters who, tonight, will determine the final two. I’d retain Candice for sure, and go with Angie Miller over Kree Harrison. But the finalists have been strong this season. It’s the judges who have been weak.
