Gripe of the Week

I have to say that before this season, I had never really watched America's Got Talent. I don't know if it's because of my usual opposition to those type of shows or because I am afraid if I watch David Hasselhoff too much it'll turn me gay. But coincidentally enough, I started watching this season regularly and it happens to be the first Hoffless season.







The Hoff



He was replaced by Howie Mandel, who is awesome is his own right. I think of the 3 judges he is the best one because he is not too harsh, but also is a pretty good judge of talent - why? Because of the 3 he is the only one with actual marketable talent. Piers was only chosen because they needed a "Simon." And Sharon Osbourne - I didn't realize being the wife of a washed up rock star qualifies you as a talent scout. Anyhow I digress.

Here is my gripe. On Tuesday night's show, there was an act that I, and an enthusiastically cheering audience thought was a no-brainer to make it through. Her name is Nina Mojares and she is 10 years old. Sharon said she was a "very talented young girl," but didn't put her through because she was "very precise." Piers said he didn't think she was ready. The only thing I can say about Piers is that at least he is consistent. Howie commented she was trying too hard to be an adult act instead of being herself, but he voted her through. I'll get into why Sharon is inconsistent (besides not voting for a girl she thinks is "very talented") after this video. Take a look for yourself:






Whether or not you agree with the judges' decision, you should agree that she is better than Mary Ellen, a 74-year-old who is more of an Almond Joy than a Mounds "singing" and "playing" keyboard.





Besides a good 5 minute laugh, I don't see why this lady has any real talent that will carry over into the rest of the competition. Apparently to win Sharon over you have to be "barking mad" as opposed to very talented.

And that, my friends, is my gripe of the week, brought to you by corn. It goes out looking the same way it did when it came in.

  1. See that is the exact reason why I cannot watch that show - at least Idol is more "legit".... they get down to the best talent each week. This show is just shit on a shingle most of the time. Brought to you by a Corn eater ;-)

  12. I think what you composed was actually very logical. However, think on this, what if you were
    to write a awesome headline? I mean, I don't want to tell you how to run your blog, however what if you added something to possibly grab a person's attention?
    I mean "Gripe of the Week" is kinda vanilla. You could peek at Yahoo's front page and see how they create article titles to grab people to open the links. You might add a video or a picture or two to get people excited about everything've got to say.
    Just my opinion, it would make your posts a little bit more interesting.
