Brooke tells us voting is open. There's one last commercial, and Brooke throws the names of the initial bottom three up on the screen. In no particular order, as always, they are Jill, Chris, and Zayra. I'd be worried about Jill if I didn't know that she's going to bring it tomorrow night.

Wednesday

Jill brings it. But first:

Brooke welcomes us to the show, and then, for the first time, we get the show's title sequence. It is, naturally, a montage of Supernova and the Supernovices, but the surprising part is that they kept last year's theme song. Which is, of course, "New Sensation" by INXS. So amid the glamour shots of the Supernovices and assorted musical equipment, we're treated to the likes of Tommy, Gilby, and Jason being edited to look like they're rocking out to an '80s new wave tune. Can't imagine they were too thrilled about that.

Coming back to the studio, Brooke tells the cheering crowd and Supernovices that voting was up nearly 40% from last week. Up from the lowest-rated week of television in history? How can that be? Anyway, Brooke explains the show and how one of the Supernovices is getting the boot tonight, then introduces Supernova, ending with the "ever-unpredictable Tommy Lee." Tommy loves that, just like I knew he would. Brooke introduces Dave, who flirts with Brooke extra because he totally forgot to last night. Brooke asks Tommy how he feels, and Tommy asks the "peeps" how they feel. Seems like everyone feels good. Brooke explains that after last night's voting, the Supernovices with the least votes will each have to sing another song (Zayra) for Supernova, and then they'll decide which of the three goes home. But first, Brooke wants to give us a little recap of last night, once again overusing the word "controversial" to describe some of the comments made.
