Default America's Got Talent - anyone watching?

Okay...so, like I wasn't going to watch this because, like, American Idol is enough 'reality tv' for me for a whole year...but mom loves it and get my daughter hooked, who in turn gets me hooked.

But, did anyone else see that little girl at the end of last night's show?!?! She was, like, FREAKISHLY talented!! WOW!!! It was unnatural, the voice that came out of her little face!!

She was really something else wasn't she. I thought she was amazing and I got "goosebumps" while she was singing.

I thought it was a little much though when the judge told her to change her hair, clothes and dress. Come off it she's only 11 and oozing with talent.

Well, Simon Cowell is the producer, so he probably hired Piers and said, "Okay...you're supposed to be like me...so be rude."

I also liked the karate guys and the cloggers. The Russian guy was like straight off the Gong Show.

And...what was with that stripper? I thought this was a family show!!

Okay, so last week I was so happy to see the little yodeller advance to the next round...not so much the Millers. That kid is great, but he sort of annoys me.

Lets see what tonight has to offer!! What do you all think of this show so far? I think it's really entertaining!!

BEB - Was it the gymnasts? They were great. We ended up voting for the piano playing girl. I'm a sucker for little kids with freakishly great talent. But if I'd known you know people, I'd have voted for them instead.

I have to say, I liked that Magnificent guy way better this week than last time with those feathers and that make up. But I was petrified his suit was going to reveal a little something or other!! I thought he cube thing was cool. And he's actually a good looking guy without all the glitter. Anyhow...I also liked the gymnasts and I thought Brandi was right on with the three girls singing in regards to their clothes. But anyhow...I didn't really like All That...I thought they were flat/sharp through most of their song....to me.

What did you guys think?

I just watched this yesterday on TiVo....

What the heck was that thing about the judges waiting until the next day to make their pick? That made alot of people mad--it was as if their vote didn't even count!!!!

I thought the same thing, Jen. They have to get their act togeter on this or the show will end up cancelled. I wonder what the results owuld have been if the gymnasts had been taken out of the vote? Maybe my little piano player would have made it

Hard to tell, Techwife....I knew At Last was going to be the top 2 though...

I HATE that they are doing it a la American Idol/So you think you can Dance with the lights dimming and the tension music.....I don't think they should do it that way. IMO. Although I know it makes for good TV...
