So there are many of you who loyally watch these shows and, like me, make continual comments to the television whether anyone else is in the room or not. Alternately, there are many of you who do not have the time to keep up with reality TV – there are too many shows, your tivos runneth over, you have kids and can’t remember what it’s like to watch anything beyond Dora the Explorer (you know who you are) – but you also want to be “in the know.” That’s fine. Let me help you understand.

The Voice Top 10 Elimination: If I Showed You My Flaws

Tonight we said goodbye to another hopeful on The Voice, but just one. We're down to 9 after this episode but next week we arrive at the Semi-Finals. Just making sure we are all on the same page. The elimination hour held no surprises this week either but here's a summary of what went down. 

Adam Levine and R. City opened the show with "Locked Away" which will now be stuck in my head for at least the next 24 hours. It's a catchy tune...Adam's part anyway. A very dramatic but wonderful Sia took the stage as well to perform "Alive," and though I always hope Kristen Wiig will storm the stage and dance during all Sia performances, Sia was solo tonight. 

Results! The first two artists Carson sent to safety were Emily Ann and Jordan. Jeffery and Barrett joined them soon thereafter, and following some filler and commercials, Madi (and Pharrell) breathed a sigh of relief as well. America also saved Amy, Zach and (at the 38 minute nark) Shelby, leaving Braiden and Korin in the bottom 2. 

Korin, by the way, looked like Korin tonight and not Gwen's Single White Female roommate, and she chose "Try" as her "save me" song. She also forgot the words. A lot. It was painful to watch. Poor Gwen looked like she was fighting not to run up on the stage and help her. Hell, I wanted to run up on the stage and help her, or hug her, or something. Braiden followed Korin with "Harder To Breathe" to try to win over the Twitterverse. Well, a Maroon 5 song worked for Korin last week so he might have the right idea here. Braiden's performance was worlds better than it was last night. As bad as I felt for Korin, three strikes and you're out kid. Braiden won the Stupid Twitter Save and Korin was sent off on her not so merry way. 

Next week the Top 9 face off again and we are apparently inching super close to the finale. Can Team Blake and Team Adam remain in tact? Will Braiden bounce back from his stint in the bottom 2? Is Madi going to hold strong for Team Pharrell? We'll see what happens on Monday. Til then!
