American Idol

This makes us sad.

After the judges refused to criticize Danny Gokey for a weak performance on Monday night - one that he said he "laughed" over afterwards - viewers followed the panel's words like sheep to the slaughter, as they sacrificed Allison Iraheta in the name of the inevitable Gokey/Adam Lambert final.

In all honesty, American Idol never seemed more rigged than it did this week. You deserved better, Allison.

The men moved on this week, as Allison Iraheta was sent packing.
