The Season 12 Finale

Image
After four months with an amazing Twelfth Season, it was time for it to come to an end with The Finale! I was looking forward to this episode a lot, like I always do with the finales of other seasons, because I know that we would probably be in for four of the best performances of the season. I also felt like this would be the closest finale the show had in a long time, as while other finales have been great with amazing performances from all the contestants involved, there has always been one contestant that was clearly the frontrunner compared to the other ones. This time, Wasp and Buffalos were both equally strong, so it could have gone either way. And, when I found out what songs they were going to perform, I still knew that it could go either way because of how strong all four of their songs were. The episode started in a very unique way, as it opened with a guest performance from a past contestant. While a past contestant coming back for a guest performance to open the show is no...

The Semifinals

After an amazing episode last week with the Quarterfinals, it was time for the Semifinals! I was looking forward to this episode, as I knew that all three singers were great, which meant that we were in for three great performances. When I first saw the trailers for this episode, I was a little confused as to why they weren’t showing Rita in the trailers, but I quickly found out from the internet that she was sick during this episode, so she wasn’t there at all. I was a little surprised that there was nobody filling in for her, but if I had to guess, this probably happened at the last minute, and they didn’t have enough time to find someone else to fill in for her.  The episode started off the same way that many other episodes this season started, with a group performance from the three remaining contestants, who performed “Some Nights” by Fun. As I have said several times already, I enjoy these group performances, as they give each contestant a chance to stand out together and sho...

The Quarterfinals

After an amazing episode last week with the Group C Finals in Peanuts Night, it was time for the Quarterfinals! I was looking forward to this episode, as I knew that we had four amazing contestants left, and as a result, we would be in for four amazing performances. The episode didn’t begin with a group performance, but with Nick introducing each of the four remaining contestants while “Just Like Fire” by Pink was playing, which I was okay with as this was also how the Quarterfinals began last season. After that, Nick explained how the episode was going to work, as he said that the contestants would perform, the audience and panel would vote, the top two singers would advance to the Semifinals, while the bottom two singers would compete in a Smackdown.  The first performer of the night was The Wasp. In his clue package, he said that he really felt the love making it this far in the competition. He then said that growing up without a consistent definition of what true love looked li...
