'America's Got Talent': Summerwind Skippers vs. Fiddleheads for last spot

So last night we had the "America's Got Talent" Season 6 Wild Card acts. Who do you think advances? I really am not sure, honestly. Could go several ways.The first group of acts brought down is Shevonne, Yellow Design Stunt Team and West Springfield Dance Team. I think West Springfield should advance out of that group, but we'll see. These are three of Sharon's four picks, so she'll get one at least. And then it's - West Springfield. Cool. I'm excited to see what they do next.
Now some of the cast of "Les Miserables" is here - they're performing in L.A. right now, so that's why they're there. They do "One Day More" and goodness, it is a fabulous performance, I'm all teary-eyed. Great musical.
The second group of acts is Avery and the Calico Hearts, Charles Peachock, Those Funny Little People and The Kinetic King. None of them got through, I'm sure of it. But then! The Kinetic King gets through! I'm shocked, truly. It's not that he isn't good, but his act is totally wrong for this show, the set-up is way too long and last night's thing was actually pretty boring. Hmph.
The third group is Landon Swank and Seth Grabel. Landon is the one who should advance, but maybe neither of them did? Nope, Landon does. Cool.
Colbie Caillat is there to perform, that's neat. I like her. Still - bloop bloop bloop.
The last group is J. Chris Newberg, the Summerwind Skippers and The Fiddleheads. I think Summerwind should advance out of this group. If I had to say who was going home right off the bat, I'd say Fiddleheads. But it's J. Chris Newberg. Huh. I'm OK with that, as long as Summerwind advances.
Also, at this point - Sharon has one act through (West Springfield) and Piers has two (Landon Swank and the Kinetic King). Howie has none.
Piers votes for Summerwind (his act), Howie votes for Fiddleheads (his act) and Sharon votes for ... Summerwind Skippers. Cool.
Also, I totally agree with a commenter on my recap who said the judges on this show are more about their own egos than any other reality competition show. Seriously, they are awful. They need to stop being so ridiculous.
Next week: The semifinals start. Do the Wild Cards get to wait for the second semifinals night or do some of them go next week? That'd be kinda sucky.

America, yo u seriously think west Springfield Dance team isbetter than J. Chris Newberg? yall are sick.
i have no problem with west springfield gong through, but j chris should have gone theough over them.
It is sad that singers seem to be the only ones that have a shot at winning the show. J. Chris Newberg is a really funny comedian and he doesn't go through, but someone like the Kinetic King does. The 5 seasons this show has been on they have all been solo singers that have won (Yes, I count Terry Fator as a singers). The last 4 seasons have been male singers. The last 2 seasons have been singers with an acoustic guitar.
I hope the people that actually vote for this show pick a different kind of act this year because there are some really good ones that top a lot of the singers.
Andrea Reiher, you are right "Also, I totally agree with a commenter on my recap who said the judges on this show are more about their own egos than any other reality competition show. Seriously, they are awful. They need to stop being so ridiculous."
The judges are ruining this show and making it hard to watch.'America's Got Talent'was going downwards fast when Howie started fart jokes, and the stupid and demeening Little People Act came back
I agree... I used to be a Howie fan, but he's becoming quite unsufferable!
I am happy for WSDT, Summerwind Skippers, and Landon Swank. Would've liked to see J. Chris Newberg one more time. I like the Kinetic King, but they always say to the acts: "How is this gonna be a one hour show?" so... How is this gonna be a one hour show?
I agree with what people are saying... The judges are SO annoying. Especially Howie. He's such a child. Please tell him to tone it down.
Howie is driving me crazy! He is truly a child and I totally agree that he is quickly bringing this show down to unwatchable levels. Funny Little People? Really? Ridiculous!
And what an insult to those talented people who get cut out of this massive TALENT competition so Howie can get a cheap laugh...
The only point in watching this show is to see the variety acts, which are the only acts which can make it in Las Vegas (ala Terry Fator). However, once the semifinals begin, the show turns into a new version of American Idol Juniors. I usually quit watching when the singers are the only ones left. Don't need another show about singers. This show won't work until they ban singers and dancers since they have their own shows (ABDC, Idol, SYTYCD, the Voice, etc.)
"America's Got Talent" judges are killing this show, they need to be replaced
I love the Kinetic King
I love the Kinetic King , but I agree with Alex "I like the Kinetic King, but they always say to the acts: "How is this gonna be a one hour show?" so... How is this gonna be a one hour show?"
I aslo agree with Jeff "Howie is driving me crazy! He is truly a child and I totally agree that he is quickly bringing this show down to unwatchable levels. Funny Little People? Really? Ridiculous!
And what an insult to those talented people who get cut out of this massive TALENT competition so Howie can get a cheap laugh..."
