the wildcard is a joke only letting three of 12 contestants go though, just so the judges can have their say. When i first heard of it i thought the wildcard would be someone that made it to the chairs in H-week, but not the voting rounds. Nothing was farther from the truth.
The show went seven seasons without the save, and needs to go away far far away. Even though the save was use to save one of my favorties this season, Micheal Lynche, i still don't like it.
