This is the dumbest show ever. The judges anger me to no end, how can you let that old keyboard lady through and not some of the others.

The girl above really had trouble the other night with the Jewel song, but I'm glad she got through because she's got a real nice tone to her voice and I think she can be real good with some more time.

ugh, tonight was a bore-fest all the way through, save for that fighting gravity act. if they put all the good acts on the same night, i'm going to be pissed because only four of them can go through each week.

haha, hopefully debra's mixed in with a lot of bad acts to secure her place in the semi-final.

She should have joined American Idol...how could she possibly fill nightly/weekly show?

Fighting Gravity should win, give the Blue Man Group some competition.

Remember, this is for entertainment, not some teenaged girl with a pretty voice.

Yeah, I agree with DrStrong. I'm sorry but people aren't going to go watch some girl sing for an hour and a half in Vegas... they want something crazy and whacky.

I have to say though, this week obviously Fighting Gravity owned it. I also am DEEPLY in love with Future Funk.

Unless they're an established musician who decided to give up worldwide touring for a run in Vegas (Celine Dion).

Also, am I the only one tired of people getting the sympathy vote on this show? Last year we had the 3 kids with the handicap grandmother, who they had the nerve to wheel out on stage. Besides that, they couldn't sing AT ALL, but still made it to the finals.

This year, we have those god awful sisters who, for some reason, decided to bring up the fact they have a disease and were told they couldn't sing...but they are singing, and obviously have been for a while, so who gives a shit if the doctor was wrong?

My point is that some people with genuine talent, are getting pushed away for some bullshit act that tugs at the judges heart strings. I just hope the voting public will shut those sisters down before the finals.

Yeah, I'm so goddamn annoyed that those girls got in. They are terrible and you know, shame for their misfortunes in their life but that shouldn't get so many pity votes. So many other people were better this week, that could've become something. These girls aren't going to make it in Vegas. I know sure as hell I would never pay a dime to see them.

And atleast the 3 kids last year were kind of good at singing, these girls just suck completely in my opinion.

I dont know, but Simon Cowell should be on this show, Piers is too nice sometimes.

They also let through a shit magician, i liked the one, cant remember his name, that did the card trick on the last show before vegas. Lance Burton is retiring soon, so a magician would kind of make sense.

Its a shame that the people voting, for the most part dont have a damn clue what would work in vegas.

I totally agree, I loved that magician. They should've brought him back over the cocky fire throwing guy.

I mean, it's sad how many shitty people have gone through lately. The fact that the hand whistling woman got THIS far absolutely baffles me. Sometimes I don't think the judges are all there.

I mean, sometimes Pierce is blunt but sometimes he's such a damn softy. Like for example with the two girls, I thought for sure he'd lay down the line and say they sucked vocally but he didn't?!

Its Piers!! haha, remember he had to correct that Pike dude who called him Pierce.

The hand whistling lady came off as kind of a comedian after the first audition, so I was ok that she went through. Then, her private audition for the judges had no comedy, then there was this recent one...so lame. Glad she is gone though.

Piers said something along the lines of, "You know what, it does matter, this is a talent competition...", when Sharon said that their vocals dont matter since they're so cute....then he basically praised those girls!!!

I am right by saying the hand whistling lady is gone right? These are the only ones going through so far?

-Future Funk
-Fighting Gravity
-Someone else
-Spill Canvas wanna-be

hahaha shit, I can't help but say Pierce.

I mean sure, hand whistler was funny... but after the first one it was like okay please leave now.

But yeah! I thought for sure after he had started saying that he'd tell the truth but nope, he just gave them good reviews like everyone else did. Are they that much of suckers where they just give into pity like that?

And yep, those are the only ones through so far. Who do you like of the 4? I think it's pretty sad that stupid singer got in. I mean yeah the "Mister Clean" joke was funny but.... that's about it. And obviously can't stand the two girls.

I know you're in love with the little boys, but come on, they wont make it. And that is the smallest 10 year old i've seen. The best singer I think is the Jason Mraz type dude, the 17 year old with the longer hair and fedora. He reminded me so much of The Rocket Summer, i would get his CD if he released on tomorrow.

Fighting Gravity is a complete rip off of the you tube sensation of the japanese talent show, that has a bunch of ninjas running around, with the entire set moving and floating. The only difference is that the japanese one doesnt try to hide the guys moving things around.

Basically the japanese guys would have done the Fighting Gravity act with the lights on. But having the hidden guys wearing all black, similar to what a ninja looks like.

I mean, I know Future Funk won't be able to last it that long anyway because they will eventually grow up. :-( But god, the little black kid is the cutest kid I've ever seen in my life. He was so goddamn hilarious last night on the results show.

But I'm not ever really a fan of any singers just because I would never pay to go see any of em, unless they suddenly started making good music that I like or something.

hahaha the Japanese. Weird.

Piers was right, the first half of the show was just horrible. i think Debra was actually one of the better acts tonight, and that's not just my love for her speaking. the other music acts were so disappointing, especially The Strange Familiar. my prediction is Debra, the bicycle guy, the dancer guy, and that last dance group will make it through.

i don't know what i love most about last night, the magician's act, howie's reaction to his act, or sharon's reaction to howie's reaction.

everyone else was pretty terrible. maybe it would've been better if they'd let the judges choose only one of the twelve youtube contestants and let the users vote in eleven. this round in general was plagued with bad acts because howie and sharon don't know what they're doing.

They should have gotten that Asian guy singing that Whitney Houston song. Also, the Evolution of Dance was the best thing I have seen in a while.

The only person I was into was the magician, hopefully he can do well.

Is there some sort of rules for working on your act? Because the first group of 4 from over a month ago have had time to rehearse for their new act, but what about the last group of 4 last week? Are they really expected to have four weeks of advance rehearsing time?

I'm also so over the child singers shit. Sure, some of them are talented but come on. Why the fuck would I pay to see that? SO boring!

I know all of the prelims are NOT live. This is obvious because they would show clips of upcoming auditions. Im pretty sure the voting procedure is real, but then again, how would the public know if their votes are really even counting? I still believe these shows are rigged, even American Idol.

Another thing, the consecutive nights of AGT are probably one night, they look exactly the same as the night before!

I missed half the show, i DVR'd it tho.

This was the magician with the crazy slight of hand card trick right? The more "classy" looking guy the first couple times we've seen him? I enjoy this guy big time, totally different level than the other magician.

I saw the comedian again, which blew, his planted hecklers was very lame.

I feel you though, then the hell are they going to move onto the next stage of competition?

Yeah agreed. I love that damn magician. I was upset when he didn't get through so I'm glad they brought him back and that he owned it.

Next week is finally the goddamn next stage but with 3908 freaking acts how are they going to split it up anyway?!

I lol'd.

so there were 6 weeks of vote offs, each week letting 4 people through.

So, 24 semi finalists after tonights show. That is the way it is supposed to be since it was originally supposed to be 48 acts going to Hollywood.

i pretty much agree with what happened last night. i think the harmonica player was more talented than those, as piers calls them now, magicians, but i was fine with either of them going through. still kind of have mixed feelings on that stunt that couple pulled.

the magician shouldn't have been brought back this week. he should've already been in the semi-finals.

Lance Burton is on his way out, Grasso would be a fitting replacement if he keeps up with his current standard. Plus, he just has that name that screams magician.

I'm very curious about that gothic magician, he seems like he would be pretty decent...nice to see something other than traditional magic on stage.

Criss Angel, holy shit, what can I say. That act was just screaming "body double", when "Criss" went into that crate...I think he has so much money now, he just puts his name out there, he doesnt care whether or not he is being innovative or even creative.

ah hell no, if i had to choose a younger dance group, it would be RNG for sure. Those girls are pretty good.

I'm SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO glad the tap dancing siblings are gone. It was less than mediocre, plus, the girl seemed to only be there because their father made all the kids perform! she never did anything the same way as the guys, and she did nothing to stand out.

Well, she was all tatted up and looked like a tramp, so that made her stand out!

I liked RNG, I feel bad they didn't get in but at the same time they're not exactly up to par with Vegas either.

See, I didn't mind the tap dancers. If they would've gone in a different direction they really could've been awesome. Like, the start of their last performance had a shot of creativity and enjoyment but then they went to straight up boring dancing again and it's just not enough.

And boy, don't be hatin' on Future Funk, they're the cutest things I've ever seen. (Not saying they should win, but I just want to see them go far so I can continue to see their cuteness!)

haha, fine!

But i still dont think children belong performing anywhere near Vegas. You also have to take into consideration how long these people could be performing for. No one is going to want to see a show that goes good for 5 minutes, then take a break, then repeat.

Unless you have a dance group with a BUNCH of people, similar to STOMP, then you're screwed. Fighting Gravity could fall into this same category depending on how long it takes for them to transition from one act to the other, they could probably do a bunch of smaller things involving a few guys, then finish with something like they've done on AGT, using all members.

I dont know, I should be a judge haha.

It was a double, look back at it and its pretty obvious Criss is not the guy entering the box, or even the guy lowered from the rafters when the lights went out.

Criss was lowered very quickly when the lights went out, then ran behind the black curtain behind the box thingy, then the double, which was hanging in the rafters since the beginning, was shown being lowered to the ground when the lights came back on.

This was painfully obvious since they never opened the box to reveal it being empty.

Criss Angel used to be good, despite all of his camera tricks, he did some genuine stunts and crazy slight of hand. Now he is just about making appearances and making money.

Great minds think alike!

And although I'm sure the producers tell them to repeat their stories (because like I said, America eats it up), some people try too hard. Like you said, the Haitian guys who did a not so impressive cover at auditions and don't even live in Haiti.

disappointed by sperry, matthews, and ascendance. sperry's trick was sick, but the execution could've been much better. oh well, if all else fails, we'll still have the video of his dancing detached tongue (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jDmEyKuC6gg). and the one where a chick goes through his stomach (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9yB0L9P9mt8).

kristina young got buzzed off and totally deserved it. wish they'd done the same thing for christina and ali. fire dude took way too long, when other magicians did the same thing almost instantly. kite kid chose a bad song, and he hasn't upped his game, either. i enjoyed seeing future funk again, but honestly, i don't think they belong in the finals.

didn't really like grimm's song choice, but that man can definitely sing.

Yeah, I doubt they'll screw up. We'll have to see next week. I really wasn't that impressed with this week anyway. You have to admit Future Funk were adorable and entertaining as hell though, Sharon's right, they need their own show.

And yes I watch Minute to Win It! I want to go on that damn show, I would probably fail though.

Dan Sperry disappointed me so much!! :( I was hoping for more. A lot more. He did such an amazing job the first time he was on.. then he did this week and wtf?? It felt like he wasn't even trying. I'm also really sick of all the singers this year... with the extreme exception of Prince Poppycock. I love him.

four of the first top five are singers. this isn't american idol.

i can't believe piers voted for christina and ali. and i thought the other two were the dimwits. though, it's america's fault he was even put in that position, if they'd only let arcattack and ascendance through, the judges vote would've been between two much more worthy acts. either way, i have no problem with grimm, poppycock, and the dancers, and it should be interesting to see matthews again.

It's just ridiculous! Even though the magician didn't impress me, what he's done before and the way he presents himself is way more Vegas than those two pathetic girls that can barely sing.

I'm honestly shocked that the judges are still using the pity card with those two girls. If they would've told the truth Tuesday night and said they're not Vegas material people wouldn't have voted for them, but since they keep saying positive things they keep getting through. It's so damn annoying.

Also, regarding the singers... even though some of them are good I feel like it's total bull that they're making it so far. Who's going to see a no name singer in Vegas? I know I sure wouldn't.

I used to be all up in the VH1 Reality TV thread, but that went to shit after they stopped airing those types of shows haha. But now Bret Michaels has another show coming out, this time similar to the Osbournes, Growing Up Twisted, or Family Jewels.

Here are my fave reality shows that are currently on air.

-Pawn Stars
-Hardcore Pawn
-AGT
-Jersey Shore (thats right i said it)
-Keeping Up With the Kardashians (booty for days on that show)

I gave up on the Real World after they started filming in the specifically built sets made to look like houses/lofts. This started a few years ago on the season where the white guy called the black guy ******, and that skinny girl screamed like a psycho after being called a whore. Plus, this show went the model route a while back, which was "that" annoying at first, but it got out of hand quickly.

Last night was school, Jeremy would seem boring if his act goes on for a long period of time.

Grasso was good, but the camera cut killed it for me, it was obvious he ran behind the curtain while that gold sheet dropped down.

That little girl, i dont like little kid singers.

Fighting Gravity again was the shit, but where was the story? One dude said this act had a story...either way, they need to go bigger, and possibly lose the darkness when they do their act. They should just try the Japanese groups act, since they ripped off their entire thing anyway.

Grasso. Got it, thanks.

I do realize it's two singers, but there's absolutely no way that Jackie is not going to be in the top 4, and Poppycock is just way too entertaining and has gotten the support of America. I think all of my choices, except Jackie, could put on an amazing Vegas show. The reason Jackie can't is because of her age. Child labor laws, plus the stress and strain on her young voice would be too much.

i agree.

had my doubts about putting poppycock into the finals, but after that performance, he's definitely through. so is grasso, for that matter. fighting gravity were kind of disappointing this week, but just the nature of their act should put them through. same goes with jackie evancho. but though i enjoy both of those acts, i think michael grimm, studio one, and jeremy are just as deserving for the spots, so this is really tough. hopefully after taking that fall, anna and patryck take away some sympathy vote from christina and alli, but not too much since the dance itself was kind of a letdown as well. i wasn't really feeling taylor matthews, either.

Goddamn, this week sucks. It's so difficult determining who may get through! I love so many acts I'm not even sure who I want through. Loved Jeremy, Studio One, Grasso and Grimm. Hell I liked Taylor too. This sucks! All I know is, those two little bitches that sing better get the fuck out or I'll be raged.

Poppycock did some funky American themed act. I mean, he's a real damn star and he's perfect for Vegas. People loved him as always of course. However Fighting Gravity kind of bored me last night. Still a great act but meh. If they run out of exciting sets it could very well get boring.

grasso! sad.

but once i thought about it, when it came down to who i wanted to see perform again, i realized i'd rather see grimm than grasso. grasso, while he's been stepping it up every week, has essentially done the same trick over and over. still, i think grasso has a shot of making a career for himself whether he went through to the next round or not. and, i just can't get enough of grimm's voice.

kind of sad studio one didn't make it, and also sort of annoyed about just the fact that of the top four, three acts are singers. but fighting gravity, jackie, and poppycock are wholly deserving of their spots, and seeing grimm again should be interesting.

Fighting Gravity needs to do something slightly different from what they've been doing to really seal the deal.

Prince Poppycock needs to go back to foreign language songs, stick with the over-the-top theatrics but not too cheesy. If he repeats his last performance, i dont see him going to the final 2.

Which mistake was Piers referring to? I'm guessing it was when you could see the guy in black in front of the door towards the end. I didn't think much of it. They've made similar mistakes before and it's bound to happen when you have only 13 guys putting the whole act together in a week. Imagine the show with a huge budget and professional stage techs. It'd be the best Vegas show of the top 4.

piers is way too hard of a judge. sometimes. that was one of those times. fighting gravity should win, hands down.

the night just got better and better as it progressed. and that includes the return of the variety acts. never did i want studio one in the running in the finals so much, who knows what more they could've done with a full 90 second act. if only it was top 5 instead of top 4.

I don't mind who takes it because every one of them is very talented. However when it comes to the best Vegas show I'd say Fighting Gravity. Although Poppycock is perfect for Vegas too. But dammit I love Grimm. Well, we'll see what happens!

I thought this was one of Poppycock's better performances. I thought it was stupid that Piers called his act normally "silly", so what if the guy has a serious side...that shows depth. Anyway, I thought Poppycock was awesome.

I'm torn between him and Fighting Gravity.

Its called "The Legend Hunters". Its basically a ghetto version of Monster Quest, know what im talking about?

The Ultimate Fighter is the UFC show that has a competition for a fighter to earn a UFC contract. Its set up like the Real World, as they're all in a house, they can party if they choose, but they train every day with their coaches, who are UFC fighters, then have weekly fights to see who advances.

He's such a hypocrite (Piers). He says this competition should be judged on sheer, raw talent (thus his hard on for the pitchy opera child) but when Poppycock strips away the theatrics to show he can really throw down, talent-wise, Piers buzzes him a second before the big finish. It's so clear he wants Jackie to win, but were they listening to the same audio we were? She was all over the place on the low register and super flat towards the end. Sad the judges can't see through the cute factor...

It is a known fact that on AGT, the judges love children, who the fuck knows why. Her voice will change when she matures, so it is irrelevant how she sounds now.

Poppycock's voice is matured, and thats it, he will sound like that with no change unless its deliberate. He has so much more talent than that little girl, he puts on a show, she just stands there and doesnt move an inch during the whole thing.

If Poppycock was going to do something "different" for the finale, he should have come out with no make up.

part of the reason why i want Anna and Silhouettes to win more than i do Team iLuminate is because i have a feeling they won't. rooting for the underdog, i guess.

also, i know iLuminate will make the better Vegas show, but i just love Anna so much.
