Producers, read this next sentence. Stop giving the pimp spot to the same singers over and over. I really like Harrison and he's going to win for sure but for goodness sake, give other singers a chance. The producers on The Voice Australia make the producers on American Idol and The Voice seem very fair with the way they draw up the performance order.
Now that I've spoiled who goes last (was there any doubt that he wouldn't get saved by Australia and get the pimp spot?), let's find out who advances to this week's live show.

Honey, how many of these things will we have to go to?
Part 1. Part 2.
Nothing will prepare parents for the upcoming wave of animation movies this summer. They will be bombarded with animation from the small all the way to the big moneymakers. It is a very unusual summer for animation due to the big studios clumping animation together through May-August in the US. HK will be getting some day-date with US but when you add in the smaller animation films from Japan and the delayed Hollywood animation films, it is going to be tough decision after tough decision for parents as little kids will want to watch animation films this summer. The last 2 years has seen about 6-7 animation films hit the big screen from May-August but 2013 will be even worse for parents (but better for kids).

The Voice Australia Season 2, Episode 20: Pimping is what this show does best
We're down to the final 16 on The Voice Australia season 2. There's
been some great performances and a lot of meh performances but it's a
new chapter for the contestants as we have reached the live rounds.
Tonight, they will be performing 1 song each and at the conclusion of
each team's last act, the team's coach will get to save 1 of their 4
artists to move onto next week. Before we get started, I've got to say
that The Voice Australia has been very predictable in who they want to
advance. Harrison has performed last 3/3 times while Luke Kennedy and Michael Paynter have been last twice. They need to at least TRY not to be as obvious and rotate the artists around. Even American Idol isn't that blatant with the performance order.

Fast & Furious 6 preview
Among this year's crop of summer blockbusters, one film stands out in particular. Long known as being non-interesting to viewers, The Fast & Furious series has grown from that of a weakling to a formidable opponent.
