Ricky could've made the top 12 if they actually showed his auditions. He was better than Danny IMO.
It's not fair because most of the others already had a lot of air time during the auditions, and a lot of them also already had their own fan clubs. Jeanine (another top 36 contestant they decided not to air during auditions) probably won't make it either. I don't understand WHY they decided
not to air at least one audition from each of the top 36, yet they can air some terrible singers, and show the drama.
The drama is nice sometimes, but they showed TOO much this year during group week. BTW, this is also why I hate this new format. I seriously think they should've kept the show as it was last year. That way, people they never or rarely showed during auditions would at least have a chance.
Anyway, I'm not happy with Michael making it. I agree that Ricky or Tatiana should've made it over him.
From Dial Idol, it looks like Michael, Alexis, and Danny make it through 
although I'm shocked that Tatiania did not make it, but i'm pretty sure she will make in the wildcard group, saving the best for last.
