They had a lot of the stranger acts on last night. Leonid, Findgersnapper, Quick Change, were certainly unique. This thing should have been wrapped up a few weeks ago. I'm getting tired of seeing the same acts, and that's all there is now that they are getting closer to the finish.

I watched it on DVR just now. WOW this show really is bad. I agree with you about the rude judge and how he is with kids, which is ridiculous. They wanted to mock Simon and it is more sadistic than anything else. I have to say that I agree with him on the quick change people though. I thought it was unbelievable the first time I saw them, but now I know their act and dresses by heart. I think because they argued back and cried the will probably get the vote now. This show has to end soon. I can't imagine a show like this coming back for another try either.

I wouldn't be surprised if they bring it back. It was such a big hit this summer that they made the shows longer each week and added last night's "Wild Card" show. I've watched the show and all, but never in "real time". I tape and watch it in like 20 minutes. Two hours to show 10 acts? Gimme a break. Overall I haven't enjoyed the show very much. I just rarely give up on something once I start...Although, I do call the show "America's Got Issues". What were some of these people thinking??

LOL I had the same watching experience or philosophy if you will as you on this one. When i am backed up on the DVR, it is my last choice. I fast forward through most of it. I tend to think they brought the wild card show on because of how much flack they got for the rappin' granny choice. I have even debated (time I will never get back!) about what is a million dollar talent??? Who knows, I sure don't, but I do hope America voted in the magician tonight.

This show is like an accident, you just got to take a look no matter how bad it may be. I'll say it again, that God for TIVO and DVR! When it gets really bad, you can just FF.

I only watched the end of the show tonight to see who won. Sorry, Tuzza, the quick change artists won the vote. I guess it's America's way of saying screw you Piers!

It appears they are already advertising for auditions for the new show that starts in January.

My two favorites are Bianca and Passing Zone. The only reason I'm still watching is because I watched the first show Bianca was on when I saw the preview and I want to see her perform in the finals to see how she does. And the Passing Zone guys are quite similar to a juggling act I saw before only they called themselves the Zucchini Brothers. The way they banter with each other is exactly the same as the Zucchini Brothers. If they start juggling canned spam then I'll know for sure.

I watched tonight since I am stuck on the couch with a remote and a laptop. I can't believe we screwed over that magician guy all over some damn tears and a granny novelty act. That guy has more than anyone else, changed up his act and wowed the crowd each time. I think if you look at what is worth a million dollars, I am looking at, if these people took their show on the road, could they eventually sell enough to make a million. Who is going to pay to come watch 90 seconds, no matter how good it is?!?!?!?! I don't think that guy would make a million in a night, but he has enough material it seems to actually have a show to buy a tix to. I like Passing Zone too. I am just cranky for not watching it on DVR and not being able to FF. Penn and Teller did make me laugh though.

Am I wrong or has Pierce made himself irrelevant? Even for next year. I mean he seems to be looking for things to piss and moan about.

He actually complained that Celtic Spring played Amazing Grace.

Really now Pierce...Unclench.

But he's right about the Millers. What in the hell are they doing in the final?

Pretty much the same act, except they ended with him wearing an "America's Got Talent" shirt and her an "NBC" dress. And they did a quickchange with Brandy.

And Pierce complained as usual. He called David the most arrogant person in the competition.

The Millers really should have done something that focuse more on the Harmonica. There was to much emphasis on the brother singing. I think they blew it.

My wife voted for Celtic Spring hoping they win to piss Pierce off.

I watched most of it. Glad I got to see The Passing Zone and Bianca again. The yodeling girl did OK to, I see Nashville in her future.

Piers should just pack it up and go home. I can't stand him. If he's back in next year I won't tune in, even for the finale. He makes it painful to watch the show.

Piers did have a point that Amazing Grace was played as a 'tactic'. I don't like it when the contestants argue back with him.
Right or wrong, he does have a valid point about a group going farther if they lost members.
Rappin' Granny as annoyed the hell out of me, but last night I was blown away! Loved her choreography.
Something about the little girl with the amazing voice has always bothered me. It's like she is imitating the record not just singing the song.

See it's the same way with AI. If they have talent...let's hear them sing original stuff.

Bianca won! I am so happy for her. She really does have a great big voice for such a small girl. She was the only reason I watched it as much as I did.

I didn't hear any other cash prizes announced, but they gave out three cars to the weird talent winner, the Millers, and All That.

SO am I the only person who thought that the writing of the show is mean spirited? Yeah, it was fine splitting the finalists down the middle and taking a break before revealing which 5 were being disqualifited for lack of votes. What I objected to were All That and the Millers being dragged up front and Philbin saying: "Well? Which one of these two acts won the million dollars? The answer is 'Neither'!" Sorry for the scatological reference but that was just plain "shity"

You know, this show was hard for me, cause what is worth a million dollars? I think for me, I thought of it as, who could really sell out an audience night after night. I think Bianca was good but something always seemed off to me as well. I really think the only that could really take this on the road and make some money is the two jugglers, passing zone?? They had a ton of stuff, they could fill up an hour plus of time, all were entertaining, they were funny. I think they deserved it.

Good show, went on too long. Piers had great real life business advice and it's a shame that more of the acts didn't listen to him. Even when Brandy said she loved an act, she looked like she was afraid during their performance.

I wouldn't go to see Bianca for a 90 minute show. But I would definitely go to see At Last and The Passing Zone. I didn't vote though ...

Simon did pretty good producing this show and it will be interesting to see if it gets picked up again.

I hate that a singing act won this. Go sing on American Idol or Rock Star. Bleh, tired of singers. I want "Entertainment". THe magician (so glad to see him utilized in that opening montague) or the Passing Zone - THAT is Entertainment. I would pay to go to a show with either of those folks. You couldn't pay me to go see a singer. Bleh.

The show has already been picked up again. I believe the next season starts in January.

What's wrong with a singer winning? She was good. With training she will be great. There are many singers out there that have had hour long TV shows and specials, not to mention the concert tours around the country. Don't quite get where you're coming from is all. She's only 12, give her a break.

I also like the Passing Zone. I would have been just as pleased if they had won instead of Bianca.

Well, for me, Leonid's last performance was worth the price of admission. I can't remember when I laughed so hard. Almost PIMP.

The girl who yodeled (Taylor Ware?) is on the MDA Telethon. Same red checkered top and jeans and pigtails. Singing Cowboy Sweetheart and the other song she did. Great stage presence.

I enjoyed parts of the show. So glad Leonid didn't win, but he never really had a chance. I beleive that a few of these acts could get good contracts in Vegas.
