At least we have Cowell to be really harsh on singers who aren't fantastic. Tape Face was great.

That drat Satyr posted:People here are always good about figuring out how these acts are done - so... how the hell did the clairvoyant act do that? My first guess was a thumper with an incredibly efficient set of codes for transmitting information. My second guess was a transmitting/receiving microphones implanted in both their jawbones/inner ear capable of subvocal communication but that might only be science fiction so far. Maybe he's a ventriloquist and he was talking for her the entire time. That would be a novel approach and pretty loving brilliant, actually.

I rather liked the Russian Pole act.

This week might have been my favorite audition episode this season. The YMCA guy was absolutely great. The 14 year old contortionist was fun as hell, and the acrobats had me holding my breath. The kid magician was kinda meh but he was cute at least.

Even though it was pretty obvious how the kid magicians trick worked (switched with Sis behind the suitcases on the right and you could kinda see mirrors under the center table when the camera cut to above the stage) I didn't see the switch and appearance coming and his performance was great. I haven't finished yet but I hope he goes through. As always I loved Brundage the Rubix wizard. No idea how he does those split second solves aside from fantastic sleight of hand. As for the card corner I assume it's a memorization trick and that there's a limited selection of cards in the deck that map to certain corners or pieces of a gimmicked cube. A very cool trick.

somekindofguy posted:Aw hell, Brundage got the axe? and we get a kid rapper in the live shows? Great. Kid rapper didn't go through did she? It was the other chick, who I thought was a singer?

I really hope Tape Face makes it through. He's so fun to me. Edit: I wonder if he is a former Blue Man. He has the stare going and the refusal to speak. Victorkm fucked around with this message at 02:48 on Jul 20, 2016 |

A Big Dark Yak posted:I know "everything's riding on this" is supposed to be inspirational and all, but maybe don't quit your job and put all your hopes at the whim of random Twitter users who vote for contestants on a goofy-rear end talent show that once had a bunch of dogs win it? I agree it's pretty dumb to bet your livelihood but goddamn I rather enjoyed both of Malevo's auditions so I hope it works out for them.

Why is Sam Morrill on AGT? He's a pretty big comic.

Of course not, but when you've already had a comedy central half-hour and a last comic standing season, and are probably on a first name basis with Howie Mandel and George Lopez and doing a set that you've been perfecting for years it just seems silly.

Aphrodite posted:Myq Kaplan was on recently too, and he had also been on LCS, and had his own Comedy Central and Netflix specials. Yeah. I felt the same way about him.

somekindofguy posted:Clarvoriyants: I think I've seen that chalkboard bit before, but not with the mentalism angle. The number of jellybeans thing was cool. From what I've seen of Brundage he is a master of sleight of hand. He either replaced Howies cube with a presolved cube or Howies cube is gimmicked in some fashion. I think it's different depending on the cube Howie picks.

AnonymousNarcotics posted:How did the clairvoyants do the chalkboard part of the trick? Everything else seemed fairly obvious. Robotics maybe? Or possibly since we got the proof of her showing the board they swapped out the board in the air during the preceding stuff. We couldn't see it at home because of the limited camera and most everyone in the room was paying more attention to the judges table.
