Watch Globe television critics Matthew Gilbert and Sarah Rodman discuss two of their favorite current shows, "Orphan Black" on BBC America and "Warehouse 13" on Syfy.

Note: This post was updated at 9:24 a.m. on May 3 with details on Angie Miller's visit to her hometown of Beverly. See below.

Angie Miller's heading home to Beverly this week, but not because she was voted off of "American Idol." The 18-year-old contestant was voted through to the next round of competition, and in turn ensured that she would get a hometown visit with the show's cameras in tow.

Beverly, beware: there is a parade on your horizon. Miller will be honored with a parade starting at 3 p.m. at City Hall, ending at Beverly High School for an outdoor concert. For more information on the concert specifics and the parade route, check out Boston.com's Your Town post.

Rounding out the top three performers were South Carolina's Candice Glover and Tennessee's Kree Harrison. Harrison and Glover will both head home and continue competing on the show.

Amber Holcomb, who was in the bottom two last week, was voted off during tonight's show.

Holcomb reprised "My Funny Valentine" to end the results episode, a fan and judge favorite which she performed during Wednesday's "Now and Then"-themed show (above). "Idol" host Ryan Seacrest ushered Holcomb's father, Phillip, onto the stage to comfort his daughter as she choked back tears during her final performance.

Do you think that the right person went home? Will you try to see Miller when she's in Beverly this week? Let us know in the comments. After that, get your questions ready for Sarah Rodman's chat about all things "Idol," scheduled for this Friday at 10:30.

Marc Maron's comedy premieres on IFC on Friday night, "Arrested Development" drops on May 26, and "The Office" goes bye-bye on the 16th. Come and discuss these and any other TV shows and events at the weekly chat.

After a surprise twist to last week's results show, "American Idol" allowed all four remaining contestants to continue competing and advance to this week's round of performances. That group includes Beverly-bred Angie Miller, who performed a pair of tracks on Wednesday's "Now and Then"-themed episode. Chat with Sarah Rodman on Friday to get her take on the week's performances, and where she thinks Miller could wind up.

It was a night of different eras and mixed marks for Beverly native Angie Miller on "American Idol" Wednesday.

The top four contestants each performed two songs, one a current hit and the other a standard.

Miller navigated a stripped-down version of Rihanna's "Diamonds" for the former and the Gershwin classic "Someone to Watch Over Me" for the latter.

While the judges continued to praise her skills as a vocalist they weren't wild about her rearrangement of the Rihanna tune, with Nicki Minaj calling it "bland and lackluster" and Randy Jackson observing that "it didn't go anywhere." The Gershwin drew higher praise with Keith Urban complimenting her "timbre, clarity, and presence" and Jackson calling it "an amazing vocal."

Miller also got to mix it up with guest mentor Harry Connick, Jr. who developed a playful rapport with the teen.

Thursday night Miller will discover what the "Idol" voters thought of her performances.

"Dancing With the Stars" honored Boston Marathon bombing victim Adrianne Haslet-Davis, a dance teacher at Boston’s Arthur Murray Studios who lost her foot in the attack. Host Tom Bergeron announced "DWTS" will follow Haslet-Davis's progress and said it plans to have her on the show to dance when she's ready. During the interview, Haslet-Davis expressed her excitement about being contacted by the show, explaining how difficult her recovery has been, but said she will dance again. She and her husband were out walking at the marathon when one of the bombs exploded just a few feet away from them. Haslet-Davis's husband had recently returned from Afghanistan. She spoke with the show from Boston where she's working toward learning to walk with a prosthetic leg. “The future is in front of me," she said.

As for this season's contestants, Olympic gymnast Aly Raisman made it through to the next round, but one funny man wasn't so lucky. Comedian Andy Dick and partner Sharna Burgess were eliminated during week 7. Raisman, who performed her colorful salsa routine again with partner Mark Ballas during the results show, earned 29 points out of 30 Monday night in the individual performance round. The pair tied with country singer Kellie Pickler and partner Derek Hough, who wowed the judges with their samba.

"Mad Men" creator Matthew Weiner recently told Terry Gross on NPR's "Fresh Air" that 1968 was one of the worst years in American history. We see the tensions of the time reflected most accurately in our main man Don Draper, who is unraveling with each episode in this sixth season.

We know what our "Mad Men" characters are going to deal with. We knew the Tet Offensive was coming. We know Martin Luther King's assassination was on its way, and we know the fate of a certain Massachusetts politican that will happen in just a few months.

But with each historic event, we get to watch how each character reacts- sometimes with grief, anger, love, resentment, or just denial. In this episode, we saw that empathy and remorse can sometimes come from the most unlikely of sources, and events like these can cause unexpected reactions. We learned that, whether is April of 1968 or April of 2013, national tragedies touch us all, whether we're close to the source or not. Some of us want to do anything we can (like Megan attending the vigil), or that we want to stay somehow connected (Betty unable to turn off the television). Just a few weeks ago, we all received this unwelcome reminder.

A breakdown of the episode:

Race (and awkward hugs). As was predicted, this topic has been touched more heavily and consistently than past seasons. We saw how deeply divided things were-- whether it was through Peggy's interaction with her secretary of through Joan's awkward hug with Dawn. It was painful to watch these two strong women try to relate to a situation that is so different from theirs. This truth is painfully apparent to Dawn and to Phyllis, but not to Joan or Peggy.

Pete. It's not a secret this guy isn't my favorite character, but he has always been on the cutting edge of seeing past racial boundaries.This tragedy may have sparked a painful realization of his mistakes and how alone he is, but I do believe it's creator Matthew Weiner saying no character is purely good or evil. Nothing is just black or white.

Roger's druggy friend with one of the worst ad ideas ever is Lost's Ethan. Does he always have to be creepy?

Don and Bobby. So far, this scene of Don taking Bobby to his place of refuge, the movies, is one of my favorite moments in this season so far. We see the creativity and smarts Don's middle child has (for the first time, and with no help from his parents). We see the heart wrenching moment when he tells a black movie theater staffer that, "people come to the movies when they are sad." We watch Don fall in love with his son.

Don's darkness. It much be such a hard thing to admit: you have to fake love for your children. it shows how completely problematic Don's thoughts and actions are, and we see the effects they have on so many people. Bobby's worry is about his stepfather, not his own, and Sally's troubled relationship with her father is well-documented. We see Megan and Don, and although they had a "moment" this episode, we see his inability to connect with anyone and impossible standards he sets for people in his life that they will eventually fail to meet, no matter how hard they try (Peggy, Megan). Now, we see him longing for his mistress, but how long will it last?

The episode ended with Don on the balcony, alone. Despite being constantly surrounded by people, he is alone. With each episode, we get more and more insight into how much internal struggle Don faces, and it leaves us wondering-- will he ever be able to get out of his own personal hell, or is he doomed? And who is he taking with him?

Let's just hope it's not Bobby, because as we saw, that kid is pretty cool.

Did you watch the episode? What are your thoughts? What did you think of Michael Ginsberg's arranged date? And the new hope for Peggy's relationship? How did you think the show handled MLK's death? Leave your thoughts in the comments.

Earning her first 10s of the season, Needham's Aly Raisman livened up Monday night's "Dancing With the Stars" with her high-energy salsa. The Olympic gold medalist worked the crowd with partner Mark Ballas during Latin Night, garnering praise from the judges.

Though Raisman rehearsed with another partner this week because Ballas suffered a back injury, the pair tied with country singer Kellie Pickler and partner Derek Hough for the highest individual score of the night.

"That was the spice of my life," judge Bruno Tonioli said about Raisman’s dance. Judge Carrie Ann Inaba said she loved it, and as for judge Len Goodman? "Well it was like a Tequila Sunrise. It was sharp and fruity. It was tasty and refreshing," he said, noting he would have liked her to perform more recognizable salsa moves. As for Raisman, she told host Brooke Burke that she loves being on the show. "I'm having a blast," she said, before learning she received a total of 29 points out of 30. Later in the night, Raisman unanimously won the show's first-ever dance-off challenge when she performed the cha cha against comedian Andy Dick and Sharna Burgess.

Cambridge-bred Ben Affleck is lending his funny bones to "Saturday Night Live" to close out their 38th season on May 18, while former cast member, Kristen Wiig will make a triumphed-albeit-temporary return May 11. The "Argo" Oscar winner will be joined by musical guest Kanye West. Wiig will be accompanied by "Diane Young" rockers Vampire Weekend.

The currently paused season will return May 4 for three final episodes, beginning with "The Hangover" star Zach Galifianakis and Of Monsters and Men.

The May 18 episode will mark Affleck's (and West's) fifth appearance on the late-night sketch comedy series, which makes us wonder if he'll be joining the "Five-Timer's Club," alongside the likes of Alec Baldwin, Steve Martin, and Tom Hanks who made cameos to welcome Justin Timberlake back in March.

Are you excited to see the final three episode of "Saturday Night Live"? What did you think of this season?

"American Idol" ended Thursday night's elimination show with a "twist."

To attentive viewers of the show's schedule, however, the surprise wasn't much of one.

After learning that Kree Harrison and Beverly's Angie Miller were the top two vote-getters and Candice Glover and Amber Holcomb the bottom two, host Ryan Seacrest announced that no one was going home.

The reasoning? Because the judges had the option of using a "save" up until last week but elected not to use it, the show had an extra week built into the schedule. So the producers essentially decided to enact a save of their own and sent no one home.

All four contestants will return next week to compete on the theme of "Now and Then." The 38 million votes that were cast Wednesday will be added to next week's votes to determine who will go home.

Want to discuss last night's show? Globe critic Sarah Rodman chats at 10:30 a.m. with readers about the turn of events:

According to judge Nicki Minaj, Wednesday night was Angie Miller's night on "American Idol."

The Beverly native scored high marks all around for her three performances on the Fox singing competition.

A major Jessie J fan, Miller performed that singer's "Who You Are" during the "personal choice" part of the show and was given a standing ovation by three of the four judges for the piano ballad. (Judge Mariah Carey said she refrained from standing only because her chair was on the train of her dress.)

Miller, along with fellow top four contestant Candice Glover, brought the judges to their feet with their duet of Rihanna's "Stay."

After her final performance of the torch song 'Cry Me A River," Miller's choice for the "one hit wonder" theme, judge Keith Urban deemed her performance "Mystical and celestially powerful."

Miller will discover if voters agreed with the judges on Thursday's elimination episode at 8 p.m. on Ch. 25.

"American Idol" is getting down to the nitty gritty. Globe critic Sarah Rodman will talk with fans of the show on Friday morning at 10:30, following the Thursday night elimination show which could potentially whittle the pool to three contestants, unless the judges use their only save. Will local Angie Miller make it through? Tune in Thursday to find out and check in with Sarah for her thoughts on Friday.

Olympic gold medalist Aly Raisman will again take the dance floor next week during Latin night on "Dancing With the Stars." The Needham native made it through the elimination round Tuesday after dancing a spicy foxtrot with partner Mark Ballas. Raisman, who said she relied on Ballas for support after last week's bombings at the Boston Marathon, impressed the judges with her expressive dance. She earned 27 points out of 30, only topped by Disney star Zendaya and country music singer Kellie Pickler.

Who did go home? Boxing champ Victor Ortiz and partner Lindsay Arnold. Ortiz, who received a standing ovation after he was cut from the show, said he wouldn't take anything back. "At the end of the day, it was a beautiful experience," he said. "It's been a blast. I'm happy to get this far. I definitely needed some dance moves."

Other pairs in the bottom during the sixth round results show included comedian Andy Dick and partner Sharna Burgess, and former "Bachelor" star Sean Lowe and partner Peta Murgatroyd.

Meanwhile, will.i.am and Olly Murs were the night's featured performers. Raisman and the remaining contestants will return with new routines Monday, April 29, at 8 p.m. on ABC.

Did the right contestant go home? Should Aly make it all the way? Leave your thoughts here in the comments.

He's a fox. Clearly.

Reporter Michael Tobin was on the scene in our fair city reporting for Fox News on the Boston Marathon tragedy when two fans attempted to steal some kisses in his live shot.

Like a true journalistic pro, Tobin didn't bat an eye as he deflects his admirers.

And that is all. Over and out.

Needham native Aly Raisman performed a spicy foxtrot Monday with professional dancer Mark Ballas during Stevie Wonder Night on "Dancing With the Stars." Reeling from last week's bombings at the Boston Marathon, she thanked her partner for helping her keep it together. Showing her Olympic strength in the dance they dedicated to Boston, Raisman looked polished in a shimmering light pink gown as she moved gracefully around the ballroom floor to Wonder's hit "Isn't She Lovely," proving more effortlessly expressive this week as she flashed flirty smiles to the camera.

"It was a real foxy foxtrot," judge Bruno Tonioli said. While judge Len Goodman offered some critical feedback about her form, judge Carrie Ann Inaba focused on the positive. "You brought out your beautiful Bostonian elegance tonight," Inaba said. "You're sort of an understated performer, but I see you heading to perfection." Raisman and Ballas earned 27 points out of 30.

Talk about changing times: Remember when Peggy and Joan were secretaries and Don would have secret conversations with his wife Betty’s psychiatrist?

Now, we see Peggy accomplishing so much that her former boss is spying on her presentation, and we see Joan as a partner-- a role model to some, still a secretary to others.

And, most importantly, we see the men of “Mad Men” struggling with these women and their success.

Here is a breakdown of the episode:

Beverly's Angie Miller earned enough votes to advance to the top four on "American Idol," but her competitor Janelle Arthur wasn't so lucky. The 23-year-old Tennessee native was sent home without the judges' save.

Miller impressed the judges on Wednesday night with a pair of performances. First, a touching dedication of "I'll Stand By You" to the people affected by the Boston Marathon bombings, followed by a powerful rendition of Beyonce's "Halo." The judges praised her vocal ability and Nicki Minaj called her version of "Halo" a 10 out of 10 before the results were revealed.

Arthur performed Vince Gill's "When I Call Your Name" (above) and Dolly Parton's "Dumb Blonde" on Wednesday. She had the opportunity to sing one last time and potentially earn the judges save on Thursday, but her rendition of "Keep Me Hangin' On" wasn't enough to go through. Randy Jackson told the crowd that the judges were locked in their decision: two for her staying, two against her staying.

The results show also featured performances from former "American Idol" hopefuls, season 2 runner up Clay Aiken, and season 3 winner Fantasia. Fantasia debuted her newest single, "Lose to Win," and brought all four judges to their feet.

Former "Idol" judge Paula Abdul made a surprise appearance to praise contestant Candice Glover, who sang Abdul's hit "Straight Up" during the diva portion of the performance rounds this week.

Do you think the right person went home? Should the judges have used their save? Let us know in the comments.

Angie Miller took on a pair of songs on Wednesday's episode of 'Idol' and impressed the panel of judges with both selections.

First up the 18-year-old Beverly native picked a song from the year she was born, The Pretenders' 1994 hit "I'll Stand By You," which she dedicated to Boston following Monday's Marathon attacks. She performed while playing the piano and earned rave remarks from the panel, including judge Keith Urban who said Miller has a quality in her voice that makes him want to cry whenever she sings.

Next, Miller took on a Beyonce track "Halo" during the diva-song portion of the night. Nicki Minaj raved that Beyonce "does ["Halo"] like a queen should," and Miller "did that song justice like a queen could."

Tune in to Fox Thursday at 8 p.m. to find out if Miller advances to the top four.

The "Original King of Comedy" D.L. Hughley and pro partner Cheryl Burke packed their bags after being eliminated in the fifth week of competition on ABC's "Dancing with the Stars" April 16.

But despite their elimination, the duo, who found themselves at the bottom of the leaderboard in previous weeks, remained in good spirits.

"I’ve had a ball. I played with house money,” said Hughley. “Thank you team DL and Cheryl for keeping us in this long. I’ve had a ball.”

Hughley and Burke tied for last place with comedian Andy Dick and pro partner Sharna Burgess on Monday's episode, but Dick and Burgess will return to compete again next week.

Also returning to the competition are Boston's own Olympic gymnast Aly Raisman and partner Mark Ballas, who earned a 27/30 for her samba performance on Monday night. Raisman dedicated the dance to those affected by the Boston Marathon bombings.

Disney star Zendaya, former "American Idol" contestant and country music artist Kelly Pickler, NFL player Jacoby Jones, "General Hospital" star Ingo Rademacher, pro boxer Victor Ortiz, comedian Andy Dick, and former "Bachelor" Sean Lowe will also return to the competition next Monday.

Needham native Aly Raisman dedicated her samba Monday to the people of Boston who may have been affected by the explosions at the Boston Marathon that afternoon. She and partner Mark Ballas earned 25 points for their performance, and came in fourth in points awarded by the judges.

In first place were Disney starlet Zendaya Coleman and partner Val Chmerkovskiy (29 points), who earned the first 10's of the season for their Argentine tango. Country singer Kellie Pickler and partner Derek Hough came in second with 27 points, earning a trio of 9's for a highly-praised foxtrot. NFL player Jacoby Jones and Karina Smirnoff rounded out the top three with a 26-point jive.

Full list of how the stars placed:

1. "Shake It Up" actress Zendaya Coleman & Val Chmerkovskiy (Argentine tango), 29 points
2. Country singer Kellie Pickler & Derek Hough (foxtrot), 27 points
