Yeah, IA with your picks. I used to never watch this show. I didn't like how they exxed everybody. I think they have done like American Idol and started showing more of the good acts instead of the bad.

I'm not sure why they put the 82 yr old thru or the guy who lifted Heidi.
The guys and the drums et al were my favourite of the night.
I'm kind of disappointed to hear about the young opera singer. It makes it seem like a big act pretending not to have sung in front of large audiences etc.

Well, Jasper, who knows how big the audience was in Romania's got talent? Lately we have more foreign acts on AGT. The Japanese act last week came to be on the show. Wonder if they are handpicked by producers or if they have a work visa and are here doing shows?

Some acts are given the ticket for the next round cause the live audience would boo if they weren't. Then they get cut before going to the live shows. Although some will be on a live show to give the tv audience easy choices cutting.
Favorites from this week:
Japanese dancers w/the drones (although I was more impressed with the drone choreography/programming than the dancing).
Argentinian Dancers/Percussion artists.
Family singers (mom, daughter and stepdad).

Finally, a beautiful use of drones!!
And that singing group from Chicago on the stairs... yeah.. very touching and entertaining. What beautiful young people.
The Ukulele girl.. next Taylor Swift.. well really she is like a young Ingrid Michaelson.. uke and all. In fact the song they played in the background after she performed WAS Ingrid Michaelson.
Another one put through to live rounds who might have benefitted from more practice in front of an audience.. at least I think.

This is actually the first season where I will be watching every ep. My new dvr is the kind with many tuners so I won't miss a thing.

Yes, she was Texannie...her delivery was pretty funny.
The young guy who sang Sinatra was great.

Loved Standup girl. Great Trump slapdown. Also about keeled over in histerical laughter when Simon Cowell was on stage with the voluptuous Spanish lady.

I actually liked the last Italian guy who sang the Frank Sinatra song. His family was hysterical.

Loved the Italian guy. He has a great voice and it is so nice to hear a song that I can actually understand the words!! Ha.

The guy was hysterical. He took over the show! Exactly someone that would do well in Vegas.

Yep, the first note or two were a tiny bit squonky...made me wince...but when he got his footing...man, his voice was like velvet fog but way better than Mel Torme. Sinatra at his best, all over again.

While the Sinatra singer was good, it's just a lounge act (think cruise ship). Not worthy of the golden buzzer. Damn.
My favs:
Juggler
Not much else was memorable to me as a Vegas act.
This was a weak episode (IMHO).

I'm with you Konamouse, the Sinatra quy was fine but not exceptional and certainly not golden buzzer worthy.
I have a friend who can sing circles around him.

I loved the woman who changed costumes & the Estonian contortionist. Too many singers.

I think Simon was impressed with the last singer's story to give her a golden buzzer. I did not think she was that good.

I thought she was very good singing that song which she has obviously practiced a lot and has a deep meaning for her. The real question is how far her talent extends.
So all of the golden buzzer winners were singers?!?!? I find that a bit frustrating because there are so many singing talent shows.

how many young girl singers that surprise Simon with stories can they have on one show? This is the third on this year alone.
no matter what,they will be sad when they have to cut one.

Kookliebird, I agree. She was good but I think her story got her the golden buzzer.

All of the golden buzzers I remember were young girl singers. Has Heidi done her golden buzzer yet?
(ETA: The Italian singer! At least he wasn't another young girl.)
