America's Got Talent Season 4

<< < (5/8) > >>

apskip:
I am not interested in matching the standards of the American public, whose votes will determine the outcome of all future rounds. Here are my revised picks for the top 10:

Pete Peterkin
Eric and Rickie
Texas Trio
Fab 5 cloggers
Lawrence Beaman
I Shaara
Voices of Glory
Barbara Padilla
Rockin' Rory
Charles Dorsey

Two who just missed my cut were Kevin Skinner and Drew Thomas, in both cases because there are a lot of professionals out there already doing what they do, country/western singing and magic/illusion.

 (:;) Hairspray ? :(

what agt did to Sky Claudette was uncalled for,I was an audience member for the night that Sky & Vlad performed,and I have seen them perform on many occasions and they are very good at what the do,I recalled the agt crew pulling plastic off of floorboards that they had placed on the stage ,seconds before they went on stage , plastic on stage during fire performance does not gel,Please folks Google Sky Claudette's Name to see what this truly talented performer is all about ,because watching this video over and over again just makes me remember when I was sitting out in the audience watching the AGT crew pull up plastic,and to sensationalize their program they had extinguished both Sky & Vlad's fire when I could see in plain view that nothing was out of control,and no one helped her when she was down,all osbourne & hasselhoff did was laugh ,also I was reading on hecklerspray  that they put her on a prop ?? so this sounds like Agt. planned this whole mess,Agt put Sky Claudette's life at risk,this is clearly a case of Endangerment !

AGT4 Reduction from "round of 40" to "round of 20" 8/4/09

first, you need to know that "Simon Cowell made a call to Piers, Sharon and David in their jet and told them he was edicting the reinsertion of 8 teams that they had overlooked but had plenty of talent into the competition. Nick Cannon announced that Lake Houston Dance Company and Diva League, two of my least favorite acts, would be added to the first group of 10 to make 12 competing for 5 spots in what must be labeled the Semifinals. The for 2 hours starting at the end of the show, phone lines are open to vote by text message or on the NBC.com website for your favorite acts (up to 10 votes each method).So here goes in order of performance:

Breaksk8 - a decent but that excellent performance

Thia Megia - she sang her heart out but her talent is limited

Platt Brothers - I love these guys and what they do, but they basically have little chance with this type of act

Diva League -if Simon Cowell was responsible for bringing this group back, then shame on Simon Cowell Since I think it was all orchestrated, then shame on teh exectuvei producer. That would be ... Simon Cowell! Piers stold the show with this scintillating line: 10 drag queens lip syncing and dancing on stage is not my idea of entertainment. Nor mine. Get them off the stage.

Manuels Horn - the audience and particularly the judges were expecting on beyond the yodeling dominatrix from the preliminary round; what they got was a traditional song and dance routine; Manuela did not have the talent for that and was embarrassed (or should have been) by the outcome. She has the least chance of any act of moving ahead in the public voting.

Grandma Lee- her jokes were about the geriatric set adn were quite funny.

Mosaic - I thought they were great but I love a cappella singing ( I do it myself often) and the audeince is not very fond of it.

AcroDunk - simply the best act of the evening

Drew Thomas Magic - sizzling and in my rating system there were a close second

Arcadian Broad - he played the piano too long adn did not dance enough as a result, but his dancing is super

Kevin Skinner - I don't like his style of music but he is very good as a performer.

Lake Houston Dance Company - who let this act into this show? Oh, it's that same culprit Simon Cowell. I guess he deserves the same opportunity to look fooolish as the rest of us.

I rate AcroDunk, Drew Thomas Magic, Kevin Skinner and Arcadian Broad as the sure things. The group of maybes for the last position includes Mosaic, Breaksk8, Grandma Lee and Thia Megia. The "out for sure" group is Manuela Horn, Diva League, Lake Houston Dance Company, Platt Brothers.

We'll see what happens on the Results show. Stay tuned.

Results show for Quarterfinals round 1 8/5

That results show did validate my projections of Acrodunk, Arcadian Broad, Drew Thomas Magic and Kevin Skinner. The 5th act going through to the semifinals was Grandma Lee (although Arcadian Broad was the one who actually finished #5 in a judges-decided runoff). This group will be performing again on the first round of the semifinals Sept. 1.

apskip:
Performance Show Quarterfinals round 2 8/12 and Results Show

The acts who made it to the semifinals from this group were:
FabFive
Paradizo Dance
Texas Tenors
Voices of Glory
and, in a stunning upset due to the problems Tony(not the dog Rory) showed in performance, Tony Hoard and Rory, in a judges-decided runoff for #5 over Charles DeWayne. I could not believe that the judges put Tony/Rory through and left Charles out in the cold because there was a large gap in talent. It was a travesty of justice, which we will see again later in the quarterfinals.

This group of winners will be competing with the first quarterfinal winners group on 9/1.
