I might be the only one here but I have no idea who this Jon Lovett was or is! A podcaster is he? I don't listen to any. When I heard there was going to be a celebrity on Survivor, I was thinking a washed up athlete. I would've kept this Jon dude over that crazy about to become unhinged Andy dude though. Those girls are going to be sorry they kept crazy dude instead of celebrity dude.

In the beginning, there was a balancing act with one guy balanced on the head of the one guy balancing on the cylinder. The first time they attempted they lost their balanced and jumped off and had to start again. I give them credit, they continued but they still messed up.

I think one act might've sealed their victory yesterday. Two other ones doomed theirs. Through my eyes.... Dee Dee Simon- How many times is she going to take off her shoes and what is the point of it? She sings well but taking off her shoes has gotten old. Learnmore Jonasi - The joke about his eyes had me laughing a bit. Overall? I don't know. He just didn't make me laugh enough. Brent Street - They are a very good dance group as backup dancers not the main attraction. Airfootworks - I've liked them all season but yesterday's performance wasn't anything amazing. I was disappointed. I wanted them to up their game so they would be a top 3 act. Hakuna Matata - Uh, they messed up! They fumbled their act and yes, they continued like anyone would, but you can't just dismiss this mishap. Richard Goodall - Finally, I liked his performance. I thought he went back to what he felt comfortable with. There were some pitchy notes towards the end of the song. The underdog doesn't win in this movie! Sebastian & Sonia - I really don't care for aerial acts in these competitions, and when you have only one half of a two man team, it's going to be tough. And it will be tough for them. They ain't winning! Solange - I love her! Another good performance from her. Maybe a bit repetitive, but so are the singers and dancers! Sky Elements - They were great yet again. It's going to be tough to knock them out. Roni & Rhythm - Their best performance and best of the night! I usually don't like dog acts but they are special. Very Special! I think their performance just might've sealed their victory! Hakuna Matata and Sebastian/Sonia sealed their doom with a mishap and a one man act respectively. I think Roni is a favorite going into next week. I wouldn't be mad if Solange (who I'm rooting for) Sky Elements and Airfootworks win. Although of the 3 acts I just mentioned, Airfootworks has a longshot to win. So I think the Top 3 will be... Roni, Solange and Sky My prediction is Roni/Rhythm winning AGT. Oh, I thought Richard "butchered" Eye of the Tiger!! He looked uncomfortable and was pitchy throughout the song!

It's been such a blah season that I'm glad it's finally coming to a close. Anyway, I have my favorites but my favorites never seem to win. These are my takes on the top 10 finalists. 10. Learnmore Jonasi - I just never have found him funny. Well, maybe one time. I really don't care much for comedians and certainly not ones that criticize Americans. 9. Richard Goodall - He always looks glum and depressed doesn't he? He is one sniffles from a full cry. He butchered "Eye of the Tiger" and the judges went crazy? He might be a nice guy but it's a big no from me! 8. Sebastian & Sonia - Sonia is a babe but I don't think she is competing. Regardless if she did, aerialists to me are a complimentary type of act, not the main attraction. What else can they do? 7. Hakuna Matata Acrobats - Again, a sideshow type of act. How many ways can one stand on ones head with rollers before falling? This act has reached it's ceiling. 6. Dee Dee Simon - I don't really care for her style of singing. Too shouty for me, but I think America might sneak her in the top three. 5. Brent Street - They are good at what they do but I don't like this type of dance style that I'm sure dancers will get. They aren't The Mayyas or Avantgardey! 4. Airfootworks - I like them! They are different. I enjoy watching them perform whatever it is you might call it. I just don't think people will vote for them since they rely solely on those bars. I wouldn't be upset if they win it all! 3. Sky Elements - I love this act! They always tell good stories with their drones. Very Imaginative! America might not like that they don't perform "live" like the rest. 2. Roni & Rhythm - I like that the dog doesn't have to look at the owner to do his tricks. Their act is very clean and easy to follow. Unlike last year's winner in which they were all over the place and the dog acted like he was in the park playing. 1. Solange - She mesmerizes us with her beauty and her quick changing talent and then slips in some magic which we forget she does well, and you have your AGT winner! I'm pulling for Solange but really I wouldn't be upset if any of the top 4 win!

Yes, they are still required to take the 20 year annuity.

I got 2 of 3 correct. I thought the big female singer would go thru instead of the little girl. That little girl singer sounded like a little girl singing. Pitchy at times and she seemed to forget the lyrics of the song. I think there are people that have to vote for the kid performer because they feel bad if they don't? I'm in love with the quick change artist woman! ❤

I took notes so I could give my take on tonight's show. Then I realized AGT just isn't that good of a show anymore. Clearly Simon gave Sebastian the aerial act, the golden buzzer because of the accident. The act was nothing special. Nothiiiiing! The best act of the night was the quick change act. I will be pulling for her! Going thru... . Quick change act . Stephanie . Dance group

Good point! I'm guessing the drone act can be programmed to fit a smaller venue, but I'm just guessing here.

The best act of the night I thought was the sand magician. He upped his act considerably from his audition. The drones were another act that I enjoyed. I think they go through. I'm not sure about the third act going through. I wasn't overly impressed with the rest of them. I have a gut feeling it will be the ballerina girl. I get that the AGT loves that the audience gets into the show, but I wish they would allow the viewer to hear the judges critiques. I'm sure they have a guy that controls the audience.

Does anyone know what was the advantage of receiving a golden buzzer during the "auditions"? Supposedly the GB advanced to the live shows. Guess what? So did the ones that went through the regular way, by receiving at least 3 "yeses"! AGT certainly fumbled on that idea. Anyway, I was shocked that some acts didn't make at least the top 5. Simon's GB band I thought were moving to the semis. The dog act and the country band were good and deserved to advance. Now that dude who sings ballads, I didn't think he would go through. Is it just me or does he always looks miserable. Unhappy. He performances are all dreary. I do like the golden buzzer in the quarterfinals because it basically takes the place of the judges picking the last act to go through the next round like in past seasons. They showed a preview of next week's acts and the only one I liked were the drones. It sure is quiet on this forum now. Only a few of us watching AGT. See you 3 or 4 next week!

I wonder why Gino has never mentioned that he paid for Jasmine's boob and butt job? Liz's new guy looks like a plant by the show. He looks and acts like a bad actor! If he is legit, what a jerk he is to make fun of Ed's medical condition. I don't like Ed but there is a line you don't cross. Liz's bf could have been the bigger man by saying his peace but being civil and mature about it. I agree with Ed, they won't last. I'm just waiting for Michael to tell Angela to F off and leave!

Wow! So you're saying that all Hispanics look alike?

So in 2 weeks the live shows begin? So what advantage do the golden buzzers have? Can anyone explain the next round?

AGT is fast becoming one of the shittiest shows on tv. There aren't any good acts anymore. That little girl sang out of tune the whole song and they judges are going to praise her? She sounded like...well, like a little girl who is attempting to sing! Not one of the other singers even moved me. Not even .... The two dudes tap dancing and drumming! Too much jumping! The track music was too loud I couldn't hear the drums enough. The tap dancing just didn't mix with drums in my opinion. These dudes are talented respectively but together they're like oil and water. Oh how can I forget the choir. Another freaking choir! They are going to be another choir that the judges say "We have never seen a choir like you here on AGT". What bullh#t! They were boring and should've been given a pat on all their backs and send home! One thing I have noticed and do appreciate that AGT is getting away from all the golden buzzers are not sob stories. I believe all the GB are regular acts. I may not agree with those acts getting the special treatment just like I don't agree with... Those two Japanese dudes receiving the GB for their comedy act. I did like them. They did make me laugh and I kind of expected for them to pull this off (I've seen other similar acts from Japan) but GB worthy? Sophia who gets under my skin already probably had a senior moment. The show needs to go back to basics and possibly eliminate the golden buzzer all together. They also need to cut the audience and judge's camera shots. Why would the viewer be more interested in what an audience member is saying or a reaction from the judges? I don't know if AGT's people read this or other forums but if they do, they would know the fans want these changes.

We just got dicked around! The show just got canceled! On a different note, I didn't realize a couple of years had passed between filming S1 and S2. No wonder Amy looked older and taller in S2.

. Balloon guy made me laugh but it's a no for me. . Golden Buzzer kid was a surprise pick. For me, good enough to go through but not GB worthy. . Dance group kids weren't anything special and I agree with Howie about them. . I agree with Simon about the dude from India. What else is he going to do to up his act? Is stacking more water glasses upping your act? I don't know. . Trapeze dude, I thought he was going to do a somersault when he went from one trapeze to the other. I wasn't dazzled. . Woman rumbling stuff with her feet was ok. I liked the music better than her act. . The saxophone guy was the best of the night. There is room for him to add to his act. It's getting more and more irritating when the camera keeps showing the audience's and judge's reactions. I wonder what goes into this thinking. I wonder why TPTB would think the viewer wouldn't want to see the act without interruptions. I'm so ready for the next round!

. The kid dancer- The kid made ugly faces and didn't dance good enough to have his own show in Vegas. . Comedian- She was ok. But still a no for me. . Aerial act- We've seen these acts before and not all of them are worth saving. This is a no for me. . Boy singing with guitar- Nah! . TT- I did laugh a few times but nnnope! . Little girl singing- She shouted her way loud enough to recieve the GB. . Menudo- I love eating menudo, especially during the winter. Listening to this singing group, not so much. . Dude giving us the bird- Horrible! . Sandman magician- Everyone knew his props was coming from his giant sleeve. After I thought about this act, I didn't like it afterall. . The silhouette group- They weren't as good as others before them, but yesterday's lineup wasn't strong at all. They were the best of this weak lineup. What has happened to all the good acts? Well, on to next week.

. I think The Mayyas and Avantgardey set the bar high when it comes to dance groups. This dance group were good but not amazing. . I wonder what is Howie's criteria for a Golden Buzzer performance? . The dude with a robot dance partner made me laugh but the act will get old real fast. . A big "no" to the father and son rap act. I couldn't understand one word from either of them. . That acapella group sounded awful with or without the track. Just saying. . The dominos dudes act was pretty neat but I think they should've had a smaller act and then build a bigger one in the later rounds. . There seems to be more people questioning why there are so many international acts and why the show's called America's Got Talent when very few are from the US. I get tired of explaining the difference between America's and Americans. Oh well, someday they will figure it out. I'm ready for the next round. I'm tired of the auditions!

I know this is the 1% game show forum but does anyone know under what category is The Quiz with Balls game show?

Yeah I agree! I think sometimes people are expecting the singer to end with a big finish so they don't really pay attention to them when they're shouting their notes.

. The quick change magician was the best of the night by far. . I don't like dog acts but this one was different and pretty good. . The South African kids were ok but nothing special. . The dance group with fire boots were just another dance group. The difference? Fire! . The prison nurse was shouty. Not a very strong show. I hope the next episode is better.

. I thought the best act of the night were the drones! . The Japanese dance group were the 2nd best and I look forward seeing them in the next round. . Finally, a GB act that I agree with. I enjoyed everything about the band. . Those balancing act dudes should've been buzzed. They fell a couple of times. Geesh! . They had already posted a long time ago about the judges getting 2 GB . Sophia is getting on my nerves!

I remember the TV show Person of Interest, the show had the 2 main characters locating and helping people through an AI machine. We got to see how they met but it was through a flashback and kept the main plot moving forward. I don't think we need a full episode of the two ladies and Bobby. Especially when we might get a heavy dose of Colton's family.

I don't find the two ladies interesting at all. They are there to find Colter his next leads or assignments. The worst thing this show can do is get into two characters that are just not worth a story. Maybe in a flashback we will find out the how's, when's and why's. This story needs more of Colton's siblings. And of course, Reenie!

I hope Rita comes back next season and sticks around! Rita is fun and very pretty. Even her facial expressions are cute. Nicole, for being an attractive woman has the most unattractive facial expressions I've seen!
