I've never watched this kind of show before and i have some questions.

When the contestant has extra people on the stage, like the Frank Sinatra impersonator with the dancers, does he provide them or does the show provide them?
When the judges say that the act is much imroved from previous shows, does the act work on that alone or does the show work with them?

How did the Zooperstars get into the final twenty?

How many times do you hear the contestants say "This means everything to me"? Also, how many times in one show does Sharon Osbourne say "I absolutely love you"?

Who do you think is going to win?

Although I have watched all the shows...I don't have many answers for you. But I'll tell you what I know.

Extras / backup on stage-I believe they are supplied by the show. Not sure how the performing act could find and afford to hire the talent.

When the judges say that the act is much imroved from previous shows, does the act work on that alone or does the show work with them?

I would have thought that they had coaches or trainer to help them with their acts, but so many times it has be "we" did this or "I" did that to prepare for the show. I still think someone works with them, but not sure. There must be a lot of rehearsing with new sets and new people on stage. Someone (maybe the director) is providing information about what might work and what won’t work.

How did the Zooperstars get into the final twenty?

Zooperstars...oh good grief. Weren't they the worse? That was a David thing. For some reason, he liked them. He eliminated a better/more entertaining act to keep them.

How many times do you hear the contestants say "This means everything to me"? Also, how many times in one show does Sharon Osbourne say "I absolutely love you"?

Sharon must like it 'naughty' too, she kept repeating that they need to be naughty, and telling acts to be more 'animal'. Other than that, she is probably the better judge, more willing to offer suggestions, not as much negative like Pierce (SP) or 'everything is great' like David.

Who do you think is going to win?

I think the winner will be a singer, but not sure between Donald, Queen Emily and the really big guy and I can't remember his name (David E Boyd or something). I am leaning towards Queen Emily.

spoke with a group of friends at the dinner table this weekend and we were in agreement:
Katrin (4 year old) should not have moved on.

We all liked the Baton Boy. probably not to win the whole thing, but to make the top ten.

How much are people going to pay to see these acts in Vegas? I surely wouldn't pay a lot to see the 4 year old sing. But I will see there was some great talent there.

I couldn't believe it when they called the two great singers forward at the same time and the judge's panel was in shock.
