ANOTHER WASTED SEASON

Yup, down to the finals on America's Got Talent, and once again it's all about singers; my guess it's the opera singing lady. Which is fine for all that, but for Las Vegas!? Really?? Would you pay $100 in Vegas to listen to a lady sing opera for 60-90 minutes? Didn't think so. Last years winner was a guy who sang opera, no-one's heard from him lastely, have they? Should been Grandma Lee(comic), Haido Torres(contortionist/dancer, or Fab 5(dancing sisters). But no, singers once again, which I blame on the judges for not thinning out the ranks of singers in early rounds. Hey, let them go on Idol if they want to sing. You know, the only famous winner so far is Terry Fador, the ventriloquist, he really made it to the big time.
And you know what else? The much vaunted $1,000,000 prize...$25,000/year for 40 years!! What kind of crap is that? You know the judges are being paid big time, they have all sorts of famous acts come on for the last shows (for padding) like Shakira, Rascal Flatts, etc, and you they made some nice money...but they can't give the winner a damn check for the winnings? What's 25G going to be worth in 10/20/30/40 years? What a rip.
Remind me, next year I'm definitely not watching...(maybe)
