First of all, we have to say that NBC did a really cruel thing in airing this “America’s Got Talent” episode against the premiere of “Rising Star.” That latter show should be allowed to fail on its own merits, because it’s pretty terrible. Don’t hurt your own fanbase by throwing your show around on the […]
In case you haven’t heard just yet, “America’s Got Talent” will be airing a new episode on Sunday night … albeit for a very stupid reason. While the preview below tries to make it seem like Sunday’s episode just had so much great talent that it deserved its own special night, the reality here is […]
Well, you can certainly proclaim right now that NBC has no problem at all when it comes to being cynical and at times evil when it comes to crushing other reality shows. Clearly, the network does not want “Rising Star” to succeed over on ABC. The show is the most ambitious project that we’ve seen […]
Another week, and another audition episode of “America’s Got Talent” that was certainly pleasant. Part of the problem at this point may actually be us, given that we expect something that we’ve never seen before after over a decade of watching talent shows. It’s very difficult at this point to impress us. The acts that […]
Have you heard the name Paul Ieti before? The Army soldier was a bit of a YouTube star last year courtesy of some covers of Etta James’ “At Last” and also Rihanna’s “Stay.” In total, he has accumulated a decent audience thanks to these videos, and he will be making his “America’s Got Talent” debut […]
After two episodes of “America’s Got Talent,” Tuesday had at least some expectations to be entertaining. We don’t expect to see Susan Boyle on this show, but we do at least want something that we can show to friends the next day. There have only been maybe one or two acts this season, and one […]
You have to love the hyperbole in almost every promo for “America’s Got Talent,” where you hear at least a few people discuss how the next audition episode of the show is going to be one of the greatest things that you see in human history. We never know if it can live up to […]
For the second episode of “America’s Got Talent,” the show started to make us a little cynical. There were so many acts that were good, but not great; yet, the judges sold them to us like they were the greatest thing since sliced bread. We’re going to do with this review the same thing that […]
During the premiere of “America’s Got Talent” this past week, you had an opportunity to see some of the first acts to hit the stage in an effort to advance forward. All in all, it was a pretty solid lineup. While the singers were a little weak (which is understandable, given that there is oversaturation […]
Watching “America’s Got Talent” at this point is such a mixed bag, since you really have to reconcile what we love about the show with all the things we hate (the product placement, the canned lines, and the fact that the show hypes up the winners as superstars even when few of them are). Now, we […]
