I generally don't care for kid performers. The kid couple and boy went through. Oh no. The kid / young magicians didn't. Huh??!!

Ya Color, I did not get that at all. Henry was a fantastic magician and had a good presence
The kids while cute should have been cut imo.

Tonight is the the first time I've voted in years. I voted for the two little dancers, Artyon and Paige. I'm in love with them.

The only one of the kids I could tolerate was the ventriloquist. IMHO, kids should have their own talent show.

My favorites last night ... Darcy the adorable ventriloquist, kid dancers Artyon and Page, and Preacher the comedian. I'm rooting for and expecting Darcy to come in first or second at the end. I just love Darcy to bits, and the kid dancers are just adorable although they were somewhat better the last time.

Loved Darcy, the red hair guy that did the acrobatic thing with the spinning circles (don't know what to call them! LOL) and Preacher. I didn't think he was super funny but loved his energy and he just made me happy watching him.

Bello Nock and the Wheel of Death. He was with Ringling Brothers for many years. Now that it is closed, his site says he has his own smaller show.

The question we have to ask ourselves is would I pay to see this act. I agree the kids should have their own show. Like Little Big Shots they just perform, no disappointment and no false hope.

Preacher Lawson
Darcie Lynne
Angelica Hale (little Asian singer)
Billy and Emily - Roller Skating siblings
In the Stairwell (Air Force singing group)
Christian Guardino
Yoli Major
Christina Guardino, Yoli Major, and Asian dance group were in the bottom three. After the on-line vote (or whatever you call it) Christian Guardino was put through. And then because there was a tie in the judge's vote for the final place, they had to go to who had the most votes. Yoli beat out the Asian dance group.
I was bummed. She is good, but I thought the dance group was phenomenal.

I guess my response to the kids need their own show is, why do we let singers on AGT with all the singing contests, why do we let dancers on AGT with all the dancing contests? What I do like about AGT versus other talent shows is the winners actually get their own show in Vegas, giving them an automatic platform to perform - versus other shows that may give you a contract or just money but not automatic public exposure.
I agree, we should be asking would we pay to see these in their own show? I totally would see the kids over most of the adults at this point, I loved the kid dancers but also understand they likely would have needed more to make it their own show. Angelica might not have bern as good as last time but I love listening to her - much more then Christian or Yoli. As good as they are. And I love Darci as much as I adored Terry the season he won. Preacher is fun to watch and I am happy he moved to at least one mire round. In the Stairwell just isn't doing it for me, but hopefully it leaves the way for better acts to move to the finals.
Looking forward to the rest of the kids next week...way too many singers this year yet they are all great so what can you do? And Merrick has to make the finals ...
For the record, my 7 year old son not only adores all the kid acts but also The Masqueraders...so it has nothing to do with age - but talent.

i think the best part of Merrick is you see what a humble kid he is... he is SO professional dancing and yet as soon as he is done, he has the glee of a kid listening to the comments - his smile is priceless.

He was the best last night. It was easy to see how the escape artist did the stunt. Back of the box was open with black curtain hanging down.

I would love a show that included a group of the kids.. That would be amazing and they would continue to support each other.
Include the dog act.
A show in Vegas that parents could enjoy with their own kids.

The twins, Mirror Image, I didn't know they were a dance act until last night. Better than previous two "dances", but still not impressed with them.
I am anxious to see Diavolo. What will they do live for their third appearance??

Mirror Image is kind of childrens recital. They ruined that song.
First thru is the light guys. I did think the group of male dancers looked a hot mess last night.
I'm sad the dogs didn't make it. That act made me smile.

Ok Johnny Emanuel made it, as well as the female singer with the hearing impairment. I forget her name.

That was just terrible to do that cliffhanger with Merrick. Everyone knows he needs to move forward - should have just paired him with Celine and said you both are moving on.
