'America's Got Talent': Antonio Restivo gets through with Sharon's vote
Antonio Restivo, AscenDance, Michael Grimm and Alice Tan Ridley advance on "America's Got Talent." So the voters got it half right.After a video recap of last night's show, Nick Cannon gets to some results. He invites the Mona Sampath Dance Company, AscenDance and Ronith down. Oh, bummer. Mona Sampath is going home, I fear. And then yes, it is AscenDance that advances. At least they got through, they were very good.
Now we have a performance from a Cirque du Soleil group and it's awesome. That is something I'd like to do -- get to Las Vegas and see Cirque du Soleil. Wow.
The next trio of acts is Cheer SF, Alice Tan Ridley and Iron Horse, so of course Alice Tan Ridley gets through. Hmm. I don't agree with that and think the Bollywood dancers were better than she was, but she's got a sad story and that's how this show goes.
Michael Grimm, Lil Chris and the Strong Man are next. Obviously Michael Grimm is advancing. Is there any suspense tonight at all?
I mean, the last trio is Wreckless, Hannibal and Antonio Restivo. It's going to come down to Wreckless and Antonio and the judges are going to pick Antonio, I'm just sure of it.
But first -- that Train song that you cannot get out of your head no matter how hard you try. I imagine the halls of the looney bin echo with the refrain of "He-ey. He-ey-ey-ey-ey. He-ey-ey-ey-ey. Tonight."
The Train guy then says that to stay on top, you have to "stay true to yourself" but also "compromise." Huh. Okey dokey.
And sure enough, weird cool Hannibal Means is sent home first.
I love it when I've caught up with the live broadcast and can't fast forward commercials. It's so educational. Did you all see the singing seafood commercial for green tea? OMFG. Was the tea spiked with LSD? And then there's the "buy a computer, get a Geek" commercial where the young kid wants the naughty librarian redheaded geek and it's just a half-step away from "it puts the lotion on its skin." Yikes.
So we're back for the big dramatic judges vote. Howie votes Antonio, Piers shows he has a heart and follows it by voting for Wreckless and then Sharon puts through Antonio Restivo.
I'm okay with that. Antonio is more Vegas, though I do think with training that Wreckless could be amazing.
What did you think, gang? Agree with the four acts that advanced?

Pretty good but as you said no real surprises. Even though Hannibal is a wierd act he is a good singer I could of seen him going through.
Why did ALice receive a standing ovation after singing and being picked but Michael Gimm did not?? Is it because its gabroury sibidaes mom?
nick, it's because everyone was relieved that alice made it through her group, while there was zero suprise for michael given his weak group.
In some weird way, Hannibal Means, made me smile, I could have
been under the influence of that talking fish ice tea commercial. No one can argue that he didn't have a beautiful voice! Michael Grim is my favourite, he sounds so much like a young version of Rod Stewart...I bet he could do Maggie Mae and Do you Think I'm Sexy proud. I'm mesmerized by Ascendance, they've taken the art of rock climbing to a whole new level...they truly are poetic to watch. I thought Alice Tan Ridley did a great job on a Gladys Knight song, but then I don't expect everyone to agree.
I don't get it.... Why do they allow those who already have a vegas show to be on AGT? Antonio Restivo has been playing in vegas for about a year . Go to the link below.
