[Hamburglar]

Have any of you been watching this, I didn't see a thread on here...


The show is now through it's 4th week and has done 8 episodes. They've had some pretty impressive acts so far:

ive never been able to sit through an episode of this, i just dont get it i guess, the acts are at times so different, theres no way to compare them, i just cant get into it, plus that one judge is just a budget version of simon cowell and it doesnt work

I sometimes catch glimpses, but it's on at the same time as So You Think You Can Dance, and that's a much better show imo.

yes.

What is funny is that Pierce from America's Got Talent & Simon are both judges on UK's Got Talent. I feel sorry for those people.

i can understand why shows see that it works for american idol, and want to use that for their own success, but some things just dont work like that, and you just cant have another simon cowell, hes one of a kind, i dont watch american idol either, but i will watch one or two of the early episodes when they are doing the auditions, he is just priceless in those!

The only way to get through this show is with a DVR and a 30sec skip button. Catch the 10-20 seconds of the entertaining (good or bad) acts they show and skip to the end.

I was surprised to see magician Nathan Burton considering he has had his own Vegas show at the Flamingo for quite a while.

I caught it once surfing.
It made me uneasy, nervous and gaseous.

I'm enjoying the show as usual; I always have a good laugh at the epic failure of the first half of the contestants, and the good ones get me definitely interested. Not bad for its fourth season, but it's exactly the same as its second and third one. Nevertheless, 9/10 for this season (so far).

+1 I just tune in to see the people make asses of themselves.

So far the worst act I've ever seen was that guy with the dancing toe "Monsieur Pedicure".

There are some questionable acts and some just for entertainment value, but there are good ones mixed in. This lady from last week was pretty amazing.

yea it is entertaining with some great acts, but Hoff & Sharon sometimes mess it up cause they dont always vote fairly on talent but if they like someone or if they get hooked on a peticualr acct. Thats weak. but I can tell u a couple acts u can youtube:

Beale Street Flippers - audition
Acrodunk - There performance in the top 40.
Alima - audition, but also peep there top 40 performance. it was terrible but they are beautiful lol
Fab Five - top 40 act
Paradizo dance - audition & top 40 act. They are magnificent

Just to name a few

Really?? Man tru dat about the girl but she has the best energy and personality for age so i was rootin for her, but I was coo with the Obama cat. he was ok. I picked all four acts each time that america voted for and got the only 2 wrong when the judges would pick the last one. The girl Thia shouldve made it over Arcadian broad. And ofcourse Charles shouldve made it over that dog act.
