"Not good enough for AI"--I love it! Thanks for the laugh, Nick!

Good gawd, Julienne made it? She is one of the worst singers. And yeah, definitely not good eough for AI!

I think Terry Fator has this in the bag. But I'd be happy with Butterscotch. The other two? Go try another singing contest.

Nick ITA, thats why I dont really watch this show, it is just a singing comp. I wish they wouldnt allow singers and just have fun different types of talent. This gets ratings though so I guess america just loves singers..yawn

Got lots of busy signals trying to vote for Terry Fator.

My thoughts from last night's show:

1. Cas: If he was really that good, why hasn't he already made it? Or at least making money at it? He's old enough and has been doing it long enough. Not a fan. And hate the sob story. Totally turns me off.

2. Butterscotch: Love her voice, love her beatboxing, but not sure she's mainstream enough to win. Plus, although she's got a great voice, yet again, another singer. Don't want a singer to win a talent contest, thank you very much. Plus, she's just too humble or something. Needs an injection of personality (although she's gotten better as the weeks have gone by).

3. Terry Fator: This man needs to win. This man can headline any act anywhere in the US. He absolutely frickin' rocks, he's the best ventriloquist I've ever seen, and he's got personality to boot. If he doesn't win, I'll be seriously surprised.

4. Julienne Irwin: Why is this little girl still in the show? What? Does she have every student in her junior high school voting for her, plus all the teeny bopper types? The first song she sang was way too big for her. She needs to go away and in a couple of years, try out for AI.

For a TALENT contest, I think Terry's got it hands down.

(Sorry to see the Glamazons go, but not surprised. Not surprised about Sideswipe either. Glad to see the other two vocalists outta there.)

Costa, I disagree with you somewhat. I really like Cas. Cas does make money at it. He said he has been making $100-$200 or so a week playing small clubs. We all know you have to be in the right place at the right time to "make it". That being said, as much as I have enjoyed him this week, I did not vote for him.

I agree with everything you have said about Butterscotch. She was amazing last night, but somehow I just cannot see her as the million dollar winner.

Forget about Julienne. She is young and so out of her league.

Terry Fator is unbelievable! I absolutely love this guy and would pay any amount of money to see him perform live. I will also be so very surprised if he does not win it all. What he does is like no-one else I have ever seen.

Just my

Terry Fator is actually what got me to watch the show. I was switching channels one night and saw just a few of the performances, and then came Terry. He just knocked it out of the ballpark, that night and ever since. I noticed on tuesday that all the contestants were weaker on judges' choice (well, I admit, I turned down the volume on Julienne, couldn't take any more) EXCEPT for Terry. Garth Brooks and country, here we come: nothing throws him....he is the total pro--and NOT A SINGER, HURRAY! (And yes I voted for him and never have voted on this show before.)

I haven't watched any of it. I refuse to watch Springer and I don't care much for Hasselhoff either.

I never watched Springer before, but he is a great host encouraging everyone.

Thanks for the link, Konamouse! Didn't realize he had a website. I love the fact that his PUPPETS have "bios" too...threw me at first when I brought up the "bio" page!

Lots of talented people haven't been discovered yet. I am all for Cas

Terry is great, and Terry will now increase his audience tenfold but Terry was already in the business really.

Move over - I'm hoppin' on the Terry Fator bandwagon, too! Loved the Roy Orbison wig and glasses on the turtle! Mrs. Osbourn didn't get it - she called him Elvis !
I really can hardly listen to Butterscotch. I don't mind beatboxing - In fact, Blake Lewis was my favorite on AI (I still replay a few of his songs over and over in my head!!). But when I hear Butterscotch, I hear spitting and rude noises. Then, when she sang "straight" in her first song, I found her voice totally weak and, well, not pretty. I think she'd make a fine piano singer. But then, I'm rooting for the non-singers to win this year, so I'd better lay off little Butter! (but she is really cute!!)

The finale is on right now. Hoping Terry Fator wins, but I'm worried that we will have another youngster (Juliene) win due, to all her texting friends voting.

Terry Fator performed with Kermit the Frog and friends tonight; great fun!

(Butterscotch performed with a "celebrity" whom I had never heard of; ditto for Julienne dueting with a young country singer I had never heard of before!)

I'm with you Beth - the only "celebrity" I recognized was Kermit. Kinda pathetic on my part. However in my defense, I stated earlier I don't care for hip-hop or country music.

Who WAS that fourth celebrity with Cas? I missed the intro, and didn't recognize the person/s. I'm afraid I didn't think of it as so much pathetic on my part; I had a reaction of: was that the best they could do?

I'm not sure who they were either. I heard Jerry Springer say as they were finishing up, with Cas you could call yourself 41. So are they called 40?

Looks like Juliene is going home.

Quickchange is back from last season.

Julienne is first eliminated, thank goodness.
