Ah... I wish I had TiVo.. My man and I are going to for Birthday Sushi tonight and we'll probably miss it.
I've seen reruns on BRAVO and oh my god.. Leonid's a HOOT!
Well I guess I DID ask, didn't I? LOL
Ok, well just in case you missed it you can click below and watch.
Hasselhoff told Bianca she reminded him of Liza Minnelli. I have to admit that I can't take his comments 100% seriously but I only pray that she understood how great of a compliment that is, regardless of who gave it.

It's between The Millers and Bianca. Bianca was awesome, but that LD! Oh my GOD, he was BRILLIANT!

Loved Bianca tonight. She is the epitome of talent. I love the quick change thing, but it can be learned. Even Brandy did it. But Bianca is pure, raw talent. That's what the show is about. Rappin' Granny, while entertaining, is not a million dollar talent.

If the Quick Change act wins, I think America is CRAZY! Sure, it is a whole lot of fun to watch and try to figure out how they do it, but they do the same flippin thing every time they are on the show. I was able to tell where they were going to move on stage.
At Last was a let down tonight. I don't think they have a shot at winning anymore.
The Rappin Granny is entertaining to watch but rapping is great enough of a talent to win one million dollars.
Bianca Ryan will definately WIN this competition. She is the best talent on the show and even though she mumbles a bit when she sings, she has incredible range and power with such a mature tone.
Taylor Ware is a cute young singer/yodeler but I don't think she has a chance at winning compared to the other girl around her age, Bianca.
All That is really entertaining to watch and I do think that they will get a lot of America's votes.
The 5 kids in Celtic Spring are REALLY talented, but I don't think they are anything that America is really looking for. We are basically in the American Idol age and a young, hip singer will probably win, and they aren't that "hip." But they surely can dance and play the violin well!
Realis is also one of the most talented acts on the show. They make it seem easy to do those moves while it is probably incredibly hard.
The Passing Zone should not win this competition. They are funny and that is the only thing they have going for them. They should try stand up comedy instead.
I have never really been a fan of the Millers as I, like Piers, can't stand the older brother Cole, but LD is an amazing harmonica player and he will get really far in his career. They probably will be in the final three though.

they are liek penn and teller or The Amazing Johnathan Sort of magic/comedy act. They are in fact comedians.
They also appear in the recent doccumentary "The Aristocrats" about the dirtiest joke ever told.

Luckydave- I pretty much agree with every single one of your opinions. Like exactly. It's almost eerie how similar the thought process is.
And the winner is...
Bianca Ryan!
Discuss.

Congratulatons Bianca!
I still wanted Passing Zone or All That to win... oh well.
I was rooting for All That or Realis. Those two were my favorites.
WOW, WOW, WOW!!!!
Bianca - remember the little people who cast you!!!!! :) LOL j/k
I couldn't resist reading the spoilers. I can't wait to see her reaction when it airs here.

BLAH!
A million dollars - she'll need it when she blows out her voice.
It was one of the most poorly produced and directed shows I've seen on television in a long time. Everything about the show was off. The camera was never on the right person at the right time. The finale was completely lackluster and anti-climatic. They ran out of time before the winner had a chance to warble a note. And Regis was a completely inept host. Everything about it, including the winner, was second-rate. And that's being kind.

Good for her! I voted for her. I thought the way they did it was so weird though. And completely anti-climactic. Just... bad. The groups they put them in to also seemed very strange. I couldn't imagine At Last and Realis not being in the top 5. And then Bianca didn't do anything when she won. And Regis was just... boring. I liked the outcome, but I thought it was executed poorly.
She was fantastic, and I'm happy she won. But Regis-oy vey. I don't care how popular he is now with his morning talk show. He's one of the dumbest people I've ever seen on tv. Or anywhere, for that matter.

My opinion is MY opinion.
She should go to American Idol when she gets older.
A million dollars my tuchas!
The magician deserved it.
Let's see Bianca make her voice disappear and reappear on CD (before she got the million)!

YAAAAAAAY BIANCA! I'm so excited for her; she will have a huge career when she gets older if she doesn't have it right now.

Don't tell me that "Rapping Granny" lost? What a crime! Obviously this show was rigged from the start. I think they must all be ageist racists for not giving Granny her million bucks. And she didn't even get a car! Where is the justice in that?
I am not a big fan of these game show talent contests but I am in the minority according the the ratings.
I agree it did seem odd to not air her singing after she won but there may have been many reasons for that. I don't assume to know but she was clearly in shock and perhaps she wasn't able to right away. It's a LIVE show ... so what to do?
Anyway, NBC.com has posted exclusive footage of her singing "And I am Telling You" afterwards. Judging by the footage I'd say she was probably STILL trying to compose herself. I think it's cute how her baby sister is pointing on the "and you, and you, and you" part. Think she's watched Bianca rehearse much?
Let's hope they take some of the advice some of you have posted here for next season. A lot of it is worth incorporating.
