*bump*

The new season is underway. Two people have already fallen OFF the stage!

Danny the parrot ftw!

I liked the taser juggler and the dance group that used the Tron-like LED's in their outfits.

The rarity of singers advancing to Vegas so far is a good sign because we all know once the voting starts what will happen.

I really hope we get a new Talent winner this year. People Singers win on America Idol thats all good and fine but seriously this is Americas got talent not Americas got Singers.

Although I disagree with you on the grounds that singing IS a "talent," I also believe that singers and even dancers have WAY too many venues already to showcase themselves:

• American Idol
• The Voice
• The Sing-Off
• CMT's Next Superstar
• X-Factor
• So You Think You Can Dance
• America's Best Dance Crew

And these are just the ones I know of off the top of my head. I'm sure there are other obscure venues out there, not the least of which is YouTube, which gave us no less than Justin Bieber, and every singer on Ellen Degeneres' record label.

I think it's time to devote AGT to variety acts or limit itself to singers and dancers that use the singing and/or dancing as a part of a variety act, just like those iLuminate dancers.

Then again, it's never going to happen, since singing and dancing will always be the money-makers with the general public.

 

[SuperBatman]

OK let be clear I think Singing is a Talent I just think that it gets voted on too much to win on almost every program.

 

[Rowsdower!]

Which singer do you guys think will win this year?

 

[SuperBatman]

Well most of the acts tonight were nothing special. I mean I hate how Howie tries to convince the other judges to vote to put people in that don't deserve it. That Horn guy wasn't good yet Howie wants to put him through.

Just caught up with the season, and man, this season sucks, except for the girl that does those spot on impressions (her Kathy Griffin was hilarious), none of these have been memorable.

 

[Marx]

I haven't been overly impressed so far this season.

 

[echostation]

Does anyone know who the all female dance group was on tonight's episode where they all looked so HOT, they were also playing with fire sticks...

 

[Marx]

I can't remember the name of them but they were the ones swinging from chains and wearing chaps, right?

 

[Iron_Stark]

Those girls were hot.

I'm still not all impressed overall with the acts.

 

[echostation]

yep that was the group. I tried seeing who they were in past episodes but couldn't find them! darn shame, also the one ginger haired buff fit chick with that bald magician Seth Grabel is unbelievably hot

 

[Marx]

I'm a fan of the singer with blond hair and all of the braids...and the male pole dancer. (When he's not wearing high heels. )

 

[Iron_Stark]

I thought the girl was going to cause the magician his spot in Hollywood for not placing that cube on right. Lol. He looked like he was ready to smack her.

I still can't believe that Maurizio and that chubby dancer with the shirt 2x too small went thru.

I'm still LOLing at the gnomes and Piers dislike for them! And when they took a picture with him and that girl gnome gave him a kiss, haha the look on his face was priceless.

There's no reason those two should have gone through.

There's no reason those two should have gone through.

...or the parrot that got stage-fright

Yeah they are putting through some poor choices.

 

[Asgard]

The magician that did the levetating box illusion was pretty good. Im still trying to figure out how he did it.

 

[Marx]

First round of 12 performed tonight! A few good performances.

 

[TheIncredibleSk]

The little girl was awesome.

 

[Iron_Stark]

Wow the first three acts bombed.

 

[Philly Phanboy]

Most acts bombed last night.

For me, the only strong acts that I see advancing are the illusionist with the mirror trick and the Silouhettes group. I really have no idea who the other two acts to advance will be.

 

[Marx]

I'm sure the "Silouhettes" will go through. I just wish they had stuck to something else instead of going with a gimmicky "Proud to be an American" theme.

I'm really hoping that the male pole dancer goes through...but I'll be surprised if he actually does.
