Kitt you are not alone.. I was not pleased with that choice by the judges.. Alice was good.. for sure. I like the rock climbers.. they need to add something to flash it up, better set, something.

This woman who was on Britain's Got Talent is suing Simon for a bundle.. but she seems delusional and full of excuses, and pretty rude and unappealing as well.. http://www.tvsquad.com/2010/07/23/simon-cowell-sued-by-britains-got-talent-contestant/?icid=main|main|dl2|link4|http%3A%2F%2Fwww.tvsquad.com%2F2010%2F07%2F23%2Fsimon-cowell-sued-by-britains-got-talent-contestant%2F

I'm betting some of the acts that "went home" will end up being made "judges choice" or something. Each week, My DVR says that on the first show of the week, "12 of the top 48 acts perform." Then on the results show, it says, "4 acts move on to the top 24. So lets do the math. We're at the top 48 now. 12 acts each week perform from the top 48, so that means a total of 4 weeks of 12. 4 from each week go to the next round. 4 times 4 isn't 24. At least it wasn't the last time I checked. That means at the end of these 4 weeks, there will still be 8 open spots for the top 24 (assuming that is indeed the amount of spots being contested for right now). All these dramatic pauses and such (like last week, it just happened to be each of the first two judges picked one of the last two acts, leaving it up to the third to be a tie breaker). They're all for drama. At the end of the contest, some of those "close" acts originally sent home will be invited into the top 24 by judges vote. Just wait and see if I'm right.

They are going to have at least one show with people who have submitted entries on Myspace. Using your maths, maybe it will be two shows of Myspace acts?? Or maybe four Myspace and four Judge's choice.

The auditions were on youtube.com. There are 12 acts from youtube.com that were selected by the judges, that will appear on one of the shows (I'm guessing the 5th), and 4 of those 12 will also go through. I had read the final is 20, with two weeks of 10 each, and the the very end is the Final 10. I'm questioning the 24 that your DVR said "Who" .... so if that is right, there are 4 unaccounted for, and you might have something there.

Maybe an extra four judges' choice is a "shock" "last minute" thing because of the quality of the contestants. A shock last minute thing they told Who's dvr about weeks ago ;).

Or maybe I have a very smart DVR. If it does go to a final 24, I'm gonna have to figure out how to ask it the next Lotto numbers.

Well...I think it's confirmed at 24. TVGuide.com says "advance 4 of the top 24" in their write-up for this week and for next week. Google.com brings up a lot more announcers saying the same thing in their articles about "top 24", but I have yet to find anybody that explains where the numbers come from. You Go Who!!!

I have been timing the pauses before the person who is going on is announced. In the first three cases each week, it is exactly 30 seconds. It feels like an eternity.

Veru Weird show last night. IMO they could all go home. No one really stuck out for me.

Nor for me. There was one near the end who I thought should get through but I can't even remember who they are today, so I guess they weren't that exciting. They really pushed that dance troop! Stressing no other dance group had got through, and that these were their favourites, and having them appear last, which is meant to be a boost for the votes.

I ended up fast forwarding through most of the show.. I agree, they could all go home with no great loss.. bring back some who have been sent home.

The one's in black have already performed, so by process of elimination I came up with the 12 left who will perform next week and highlighted them in red. Crazy red-headed Mary Ellen will be one of them (LOL)

Sharon and Piers had already voted for the bicycle person, so Howie didn't get a vote so he said that Jeremy could go on through to the semi-finals and that the two dancers could come on over to his house.

Man! This last group got screwed on bracket selection. There were very few quality acts last week, and too many this week!
