PureAGT Season 8 – Finale Live Discussion Post/”Matt Chat”
Since it was such a hit last week with me & the two Matts (hence the nickname), I’ve resurrected the live discussion post – so join us, won’t you? 🙂 Come chat about the show as it goes on, and see what other readers have to say. Who did well? Who did bad? Who surprised you??? Won’t you join us? We don’t bite…hard 😉
I think Collins can only hope for 4th place…at BEST.
I agree, I don’t think he’ll win. But I still think he did himself proud. If you’re not gonna win, at least end at your strongest, and I think that’s what he did.
I don’t think Jimmy Rose’s voice is that special. I hope he doesn’t win.
Jimmy should’ve just sang that original song for the third time. Like Tone. I would’ve been more likely to vote for him.
Here come the heavy hitters. Enter Sandman!
LOL! Taylor makes me smile and laugh like no other 😀 Yep, me thinks I’m gonna vote for him. Kenichi and Forte really have to knock my socks off to sway me 😛
Taylor had a very good performance. Not great, and I liked the first one better. But very good. He probably won’t win, but I think 2nd is realistic.
I think Taylor is funnier than Tom Cotter
God, Taylor is on fire tonight – and I think his after-banter with the judges is the best part!
You’re right on the talk with judges. The Mariah joke sold me.
Hmmm…not sure Kenichi really sold it :-/
I disagree with Mel B
Kenichi, to be honest, choked. Hiedi cited his previous performances, but they were all better than this.
I agree with Mel B- the interaction with the people on screen was not as good as in past performances.
Kenichi was good…but I wasn’t that wowed unfortunately. I don’t think he’s got this in the bag quite as much as before.
Sorry, but I was bored with Forte’s last performance
Forte has fantastic sound like always…but again…I wasn’t blown away 🙁 Yep, definitely voting for Taylor. I think he could just be the spoiler of the season. I would actually kind of love that 😀
I’m worried that the doomsday scenario is a possibility. With both favorites (Forte and Kenichi) choking, it’s wide open, which means Collin wins via teenage girls.
Here’s how I would rank tonight’s acts from worst to best:
6. Jimmy Rose
5. Collins Key
4. Cami Bradley
3. Forte
2. Kenichi Ebina
1. Taylor Williamson
I know putting Taylor at #1 is a bit of a longshot, but that’s who I’m hoping wins.
I really like Collins, but to be honest, if Forte or Kenichi don’t take this, I still have a feeling Taylor will. Collins did really well tonight, but I’m not so sure that, even with his fanbase, that he can win. I’m…just not sure if I see it.
By request, a new poll: https://pureamericasgottalent.com/2013/09/17/pureagt-season-8-post-finale-performance-poll-who-will-win/
I just checked vote AGT.com and it has Taylor receiving the most votes on Twitter. I slept through part of last night`s show-wasn`t feeling well. I woke up in time to watch Forte`s beautiful renditon of “Caruso”. It will be interesting to see how tonight`s voting results.
