American Idol: Meet the Top Five

"A lot of fans are going to be disappointed with tonight's result," said Ryan Seacrest at the start of the hour on American Idol Thursday. That sounded ominous, but then again it wasn't the same as saying America would be shocked or faint dead away. Not a Pia Toscano moment, in other words.

At the halfway point, Seacrest said: "Who is in and who is out? You may be surprised." Again, surprise – but not shock. … I sensed … Jacob Lusk.
