Netflix is top of the pile.Scroll down for full list

Netflix teen drama 13 Reasons Why has edged out Amazon’s The Grand Tour as the most in-demand digital series in the UK, according to research by data firm Parrot Analytics.

Netflix is responsible for seven of the top 10 originals in the second quarter of 2017, though Amazon’s The Grand Tour and Hulu’s The Handmaid’s Tale, which aired on Channel 4, completed the top three.

Amazon’s The Man In The High Castle is also in the top 10 and Parrot’s European director Courtney Williams expects the Jeff Bezos-led firm to catch up to Netflix in the near future.

“Based on Amazon’s continued investment in originals both out of the Us and local markets, you’ll see Netflix’s hold on this chart change.”

How can anyone complain about an American Idol episode that packed in performances from more than 50 singers, a heaping portion of maniacal/delightful bitchery courtesy of “The Vocal Coach from Hell,” and a genuine emotional breakdown from soundbite-spewing cool kid Heejun Han? Actually, if you’ll give me a second, I’m sure I can come up with something — Season 10 Vegas survivor Hollie Cavanagh once again getting the seen-but-never-heard treatment? one of the strongest vocalists in the competition getting burned by a last-minute judges’ switcheroo? the continued existence of Randy Jackson on my TV screen? — but sometimes, you have to...

The remaining seventy contestants of American Idol were up for a challenge this week, being put into groups of three and four, singing music from the 50s or 60s. The Idol hopefuls took over the stage in Cirque du Soleil’s Viva Elvis Theatre at Aria Resort & Casino in Las Vegas and gave the performance of their lives. Finally, Idol delivered two hours of nonstop musical entertainment.

Cari Quoyser, Chase Likens, Skylar Laine, and Colton Dixon brought such a sweetness to the stage and opened the night with great satisfaction. This era fits Quoyser perfectly, don’t you think? The judges did not think that this performance was her best though and unfortunately, she was cut. What a disappointment. Laine was the one worrying about hitting her notes and not ruining the sound of the group with her distinct country sound… but she wasn’t the one the judges were concerned about.

Thursday night's cruel, two-hour episode of "American Idol" continued to prolong the agony challenge the contestants, shuttling the Hollywood Week survivors off to Las Vegas for another round of group numbers. Thankfully, all the outbreak monkeys who were contaminating the other contestants in Los Angeles had obviously been culled from the herd by the time they reached Vegas, so disease and dehydration weren't running rampant through the halls any longer. That's not to say that everyone had miraculously learned how to stay in key following their ordeal in Hollywood -- there were still plenty of mediocre performances in store.

I'm mostly just baffled that the "Idol" producers got away with stretching out the drama this long; we saw solo cuts, group cuts and another round of solo cuts in Hollywood, followed by Day 1 group cuts, Day 2 group cuts, and another round of Day 1 group cuts in Thursday's episode. Were the...

Last night, we saw American Idol hopefuls sing in groups and by themselves and then learn their respective fates in those garish, chairless rooms.

Over the next two hours, the 69 remaining contestants will travel to Las Vegas to perform on the Viva Elvis stage in their last bid to make it to the Top 40. What happens in Vegas tonight isn't staying in Vegas. Some contestants will return to La while some will be going home.

Ryan's voiceover promises that tonight will be full of drama and surprises. I mean, it is Vegas after all, and anything can happen.

Prior to leaving La, contestants formed groups of 3 to 4 for their Vegas performances and were assigned a song from the 50s or 60s. Upon arriving in Las Vegas, they immediately got to work rehearsing with one of the American Idol vocal coaches. All contestants will face the possibility of elimination immediately upon the end of their performance.

With 70 contestants still standing, “American Idol” kicked it old school in Las Vegas with songs from the 50s and 60s. Singers performed in groups of three and four and each team was styled and costumed for the first time. And unlike pretty much every episode so far this season, nobody fainted, fell off the stage, or got rushed to the hospital. But there was drama, and there were, of course tears.

That’s because what happens in Vegas doesn’t stay…...

Some contestants who made it through were then sent packing in a new, cruel turn of events.

"American Idol" opened with 70 contestants Thursday (February 16) and ended with 42, as the Las Vegas cuts — referred to alternately as "brutal," "painful" and "deep" — lived up to their billing.

Some who made it through on the strength of their performances were later told they, in fact, didn't make it through, a new twist. The twist wasn't given a name, but it should have been called the "Gotcha!" — as in, "Oh, you thought you were going to go on to achieve your dream of being a singer? Gotcha!"

In Vegas, contestants were asked to form groups and sing songs from the '50s and '60s onstage at the Aria hotel, home to the "Viva Elvis" show.

The episode began, as all future "Idol" episodes should,...
