It was almost freaky, like it shouldn't be happening! I think she's going to win the whole thing.

Scary neck guy... couldn't watch him but I'd vote for him! Definitely a Vegas show there!

Next week is wild-card week!!!

I'm sorry, but I don't think that is fair. These people have already auditioned and performed and not been voted through by American popular vote, and now they get another chance because the judges like them?

Sounds to me like they are just trying to fill up air space.

The Wild Card acts are:

Michael Grasso (magician)
Connor Doran (kite flying guy)
Swing Shift Side Show (drilling holes in his face guy)
Kruti Dance Academy (Indian/Bollywood)
Michael Lipari & Ashleigh Dejon (acrobats)
Hot Shot Tap Dancers (the 3 bros and sis tap dancers)
RNG (little girl dance troop)
CJ Dippa (little boy rapper)
Harmonica Pierre (...)
Anna and Patryk (little ballroom dancers)
Doogie Horner (comedian)
Rudi Macaggi (illusionist with the saw)

I think the one I marked as Bollywood was the Bollywood act - if so I'd like to see them go through. The rest don't really interest me much.

Looking at the Wild Card acts, I see that two of them were passed over during the judge's picks, so that means they originally got 4th or 5th place that week with the public vote:

RNG
Anna and Patryk

But the other two acts that got passed over by the judges that had received 4th and 5th place during their week from the public were:

Wreckless
Belly Dancers

Wonder why they weren't Wild Cards??????

I'm really disappointed in most of the wild cards.. Doogie and Swing Shift, for instance, I really didn't want to EVER see again.. and I'll FF if I watch the show.

I was expecting to see the belly dancers, I thought they were kind of special because they really did belly dance, whereas a lot you see really just shake their booties.

Two of the selected acts I can't watch anyway - the one who pierces himself and the guy who did the trick with the saw - I don't want to watch Doogie, and too be honest I wasn't keen on the boy rapper. I guess I'll be fast forwarding a lot too.

The only worthy acts would be the young ballroom dancers, the bollywood dancers, the acrobats and harmonica pierre.

But Breaking Gravity, the young opera singer and the subway singer are probably going to be top 3 in the finals.

I can see why they have the wild card. They obviously try to group acts by the way they think they will be eliminated. In other words, they try not to put the stronger acts together in one show.

But sometimes they misjudge and you have more than 4 really good acts in the same show. This eliminates someone that really should have gone through. By having the wild card, it gives the judges a chance to put through someone who was eliminated this way.

I have no problem with the wild cards because if they are good enough to win, then they belong there, if not they will just get voted off again.

DH didn't believe that girl was really singing. I went over to You Tube and plunked in her name and we listened to all of her stuff. She is so cute.

Check out Dan Sperry too. He is the life saver guy that spooked Howie. Apparently he is an award winning magician.

Think about it,if we didn't have the wild card on American Idol we would have missed out on getting to know RJ Helton and Clay Aiken.There may be hidden talent that we missed the first time round.

I didn't know that about Clay Aiken, Luvie! I only started watching these talent-type reality shows when Susan Boyle came on the scene last year. I'm very surprised a "wild card" made it to the final two, and actually has outsold records from anybody else from season two. Thanks for pointing that out...t'was an interesting read from Google.

In 2008, Donald Braswell was eliminated in the quarterfinals and brought back as a wild card. He ended up in fourth place. If none of you have ever heard him, go to Utube and take a listen. Especially his Phantom of the Opera Music of the Night. How he ever got voted off the first time, I will never understand.

I love the boy with the kite, but how is that an hour long Vegas show?

Found a link to Donald Braswell. If you have not heard him, it is worth a listen.
