America's Got Talent - Top 20
We haven't been reviewing America's Got Talent here at TV Squad this season. However, after watching last night's episode during which they selected the Top 20, I felt compelled to write about it. Why? Because I'm really disappointed. Actually, when I watched the show (especially near the very end), I had about the same facial reaction the "3 Redneck Tenors" had when they were told they wouldn't advance.So far this season, I didn't mind judges making questionable decisions at times since it didn't mean those contestants would be on the Top 20. However, last night, I expected them to make good decisions as the selected ones would have a 1 out of 20 chance to win a million. I get that the show wanted a wide variety of acts in the Top 20 and that it meant not all our favorites would be in the Top 20. I also understand that they needed a few acts that would have people talking. But the judges clearly lost it last night (well, in reality, a few weeks ago), when selecting the Top 20. I need someone give me answers these two questions as I have no idea what a good answer is for either:
- Is Boy Shakira really worth a million?
- Is Kashif really a good Bollywood dancer and entertainer? Because if he is in the Top 20, he must be right?
Actually, I wish that all AGT fans do watch and vote in the coming weeks. Boy Shakira and Kashif need to be booted off asap and it's only by not voting for them that we can show how disappointed we are in the judges decision. But then again, us watching and voting will give NBC ratings... it's a double-edge sword.
