They were whittled down to 4. The acts performed their finales.

Who is YOUR "America's Got Talent" Winner?

 

[RockJock]

If Terry gets a Vegas headlining show, my wife and I are there.

 

[ILoveCats&Tivo]

I hope Terry wins -- he is awesome! I would love to see him live.

The best of the rest is Cas. I like his unique style.

Butterscotch. BLECH ! I didn't think it fair that she had background stimuli (dancers) added to her act. Even my kids (21 yr old boy and 16 yr old daughter) found both of her final performances horrible.

Julienne. I know she is young, HOWEVER, this is a competition and you can't give out points just because someone is young and inexperienced. I found her very off key. Kid's didn't like her either.

Good luck Terry!!!

I really like Butterscotch. She's come a long way and I think she has great talent.

 

[Mikeyis4dcats]

I think Butterscotch has good talent, but it's not much of a show for more than a couple of songs. She should expand into singing more IMO.

Terry has an amazing act.

Cas is great, but in a show like this, I value variety over ability to continually perform the same style of music.

Julienne will be great in a couple of years.

The poll question is confusing.

As I said in the earlier AGT post, if it's "who I want to win," it's Terry, but if it's "who I think will actually win," I have a gut feeling Julienne has the fan base.

The question was meant to guage the feelings of TCFers on who they think should win/who they want to win - not trying to guage TCFers opinions on who they think the voting public will vote for. This poll will NEVER show up on "The Power of 10"

I try to think of it as "who would I pay to see live" . In that case, I have been thinking of driving 12 hours to see Cas perform. I would only see Terry if I were in Vegas and he was playing, or if he toured to my town. As for the other two, I'd show up late just to miss them if they were an opening act.

 

[Magister]

I would take my kids to see Terry perform. Would be the only act that I can imagine my kids enjoying with me. And heck, the dude is supremely talented.

Sure Cas wants to do this so he doesn't have to have a real job. But Terry seems to have a sincere passion for it, and he is able to bring it.

I hope that Terry wins and voted that way.

However, I like Cas and hope that maybe he will get some talent scout to get him a contract or something (kinda like what they did for the runner-ups on American Inventor).

I would be very surprised if Simon Cowell (one of AGT's producers) hasn't already signed Cas to a recording contract of some sort. (I wouldn't be surprised if he has Butterscotch and Julienne signed as well - Julienne may not be ready now, but a lot of people must believe she's a star waiting to break out, so she might as well be under contract now.)

Well, not all of us...

I'm still a little surprised Julienne finished fourth (assuming they didn't list the three losers in some random order - they never did say "the top three" and "the top two", as I recall). I figured that the only way she had enough support to make it to the final four in the first place is if she had enough support to win.

I know a lot of you may have missed it, but Quick Change was invited back for the finale for an encore appearance. Now I have been pretty vocal (written-word-wise, anyway) about the fact that they do the same exact thing every time they perform. According to the them, it's different every time if the color of their clothing is different. Whatever.

I am now here to publicly state that I was very entertained by the actual change that they threw into their act on the AGT Finale - Dania's pratfall in the opening sequence! HILARIOUS!!! Oh ya, for the record, one year and who knows how many performances later (they are, after all, an official NBA half-time show - oy!), their act - except for the aforementioned pratfall - is EXACTLY the same as it was all four (or five or whatever) times they did it last year!!!

I just hope that pratfall gets it's fair number of hits on YouTube!

 

[wbrumfiel]

I wasn't sad to see Terry win but I really liked Cas. I really hope he gets signed by someone and can make a few CDs. I think I'd buy them. Also, he just seems like a cool kinda guy that youd like to go out and have a few beers with.

 

[TIVO_GUY_HERE]

Terry was on our local radio yesterday morning. He said out of the Million bucks, he cleared 200,000. WOW I guess it's like the lottery, take all now, get 1/2 then pay taxes on top of that. That sucks tho.

 

[That Don Guy]

Well, they did keep saying in the credits that the million would be paid out over 40 years from an annuity unless the winner chose to take the annuity's base value as a lump sum.

I think I would've taken the 40 year pay-out. Assuming of course it's transferrable in my will.

Why? It's all math
