America's Got Talent Season 9 Quarter Finals Round 2

Oooh boy, this was a bad night. Let's get this over with. Order of acts are listed from Best to Worst.

1: Aerial Animation (Aerial Acrobat) The only act of the night that had some imagination behind it. She could be this year's Kenichi.

2: Andrey Moraru (Hand Balance) He is very good at twisting his body around and doing incredible poses and moves, but I feel if he made the act a little more dangerous, he would really up the ante of entertainment.

3: Darik Santos (Comedian) The judges are spot on with Emo Philips comparisons. This guy seems like he could be Emo's son. But he's not at the talent level that Emo was on his bad days. Darik's jokes are very much styled like Emo's, but Emo's do a lot better job of going to places you don't expect. That being said, Darik did make me laugh a few times during his act.

4: Loop Rawlins (Cowboy) Tonight seemed more of the same, despite the ring of fire, which really didn't do anything. He's very good at twirling the rope around, but he needs to step his game up.

5: Mat Franco (Magician) He's got one thing going for him, he's no where near as bad as David and Leeman. However, his trick wasn't very good tonight. It was obvious Howie was in on the act. Sad.

6: Acte II (Opera Duet) They were the most solid of the singers tonight, but it was a weird opera rendition of "I Will Always Love You." They made it this far in the list just by not sucking as much as the others.

7: Hart Dance Team (Dance Group) They had an interesting gimmick, but they didn't do much with it. It quickly devolved into a typical dance group routine, and we got to much of those as it is.

8: Jacob Curlee (Singer) I was to busy getting over my nausea from hearing about his foster home story again to really listen to him sing. From what I did hear, it sounded mediocre at best.

9: Mara Justine (Singer) When she gets into her lower register, she really sucks. When she gets higher and at her normal range, she only sounds slightly sucky.

10: John & Andrew (Dancers) They move really well together. I don't care that it's two guys dancing, but when two people are dancing, they should be doing something inventive. I saw none of that.

11: Livy, Matt, & Sammy (Band) They did a horrible rendition of Queen's "Fat Bottomed Girls." It was an indie band cover and it was as bland as you would expect it to be. This sucked hard.

12: Juan Carlos (Stupid Waste of Time) This was a stupid waste of time.
