AGT is secretly hoping for “accidents” like this. Inviting several danger acts to audition, they allow a few to go to the “live” shows. AGT knows that sooner or later something will go wrong and it will be broadcast live creating enormous buzz and increasing ratings.
Apparently last night, it did. Glad I didnt watch that act.
Neither can I. The nature of the show is that in order to move on, one has to do things progressively more dangerous, having started at a pretty high level of danger to begin with. It's not a matter of "if" but "when" someone's going to get killed.
The irony is that there is a lot of really excellent talent this year. They don't need the freak show or circus carnival stuff to get great viewership.
PS: That 12 year old country singing girl who was adopted at birth? Wow.....she's gotta' have some interesting DNA.
