Is anybody else out there watching this show? Several of my co-workers and I are, and I commented to one of them that the show has the good, the bad and the ugly. She quickly added, "And the stupid!"

I thought they had some really good acts on this week's show, especially the man who sang "Ain't Too Proud to Beg" by the Temptations (he had the crowd eating out of his hand) and the little Asian girl who did the contortionist act - I think she should be in Cirque du Soleil!

I thought the couple who did the "polka today" was pretty bad, but I did feel sorry for them because they seemed so disappointed. I thought the act where the little girl was acting like she was beating up her dad was just weird.

I'm only watching parts of it when nothing else is on.

A lot of these people should not be getting through. Ugh. Too many horrible acts from people that just want to be on tv for 5 minutes. Hopefully the top ten are decent.

Probably can watch more now since Hell's kitchen's over. We DVR one show with that little boy David singing Ben. That was so sweet and it's hard to believe he's got autism. He will not get praises just because he's cute ....that little kid can really sing and there's such innocence in him since most of the little kids singing in that show before had some kind of an attitude. I also like the Sinatra guy-- great voice. The 7 ft guy with the milk drinking still makes me cringe and I had my eyes half open when he was on.

I don't think a lot of the circusy-type acts can really go very far, even if they're impressive in the auditions.

I liked the black guy in the first audition who sang opera (Neal Boyd -- just looked it up), Eli Mattson who sang "Walking in Memphis," the autistic boy who sang "Ben," the guy who sang "Ain't Too Proud to Beg," the guy from last night who sang "You Lift Me Up." I don't know why the crowd was against him at first -- he had a beautiful voice!

I also liked "Nuttin' But Stringz." the Frank Sinatra Guy, and the James Gang.

You can find most of these on You Tube.

I wish they would keep anything remotely adult or stripper-like OFF the show.

I'm just tired of all the dancers.

Some of those singers that got through were so good they brought tears to my eyes.

The disappointing part of this show is it seems that if you don't have some singing involved in your act, you are not likely to win. They carry through a lot of singing acts & I thought the concept of the show was to give other type acts a chance to win. Seems that certain specialty acts may need their own show in order to have a chance (accordian players, for sure).

But, also I'm tired of Sharon's constant "I love you" to all the flaming you know whats. It just makes me sick. I'm not a huge fan of this show, but I do enjoy the last couple of weeks. Yes, I tuned in too due to Hell's Kitchen being over. kd

I'm not an avid watcher of it, but whenever I'm flipping through channels and I see it I'll watch it. It's pretty fun to watch, since they usually show the interesting talents. It's more fun to watch than American Idol(Which I also watch xD).

I love this show. I've cried so many times watching it...only the sad stories, obviously.

I think it is a good idea for those in the talent industry to watch this show. I say that because the judges are the pits. There's a lot of good potential being voted off every week & then they waste our time keeping on things so unrealistic like calling divas talent. I declare, if a guy who goes through the trouble to become a woman on this show thinks that is talent & the country allows that to win, well I just may have to shut down my TV forever! As far as the muscial talent, I didn't see justification in a 12 year w/ good voice & piano skills being voted off while allowing the 4 & 9 year old to continue. Yes, I think they are absolutely adorable, but didn't see at all why the 12 year old didn't continue & also allowing entire groups to continue as well. I thought that Kat was excellent & could not see why she was voted off. She needs to be on Broadway. I'm hoping by voting time there will be something left worth voting for. These judges don't have a clue! kd
