I don't understand what you mean by that post.  Is it that you don't like rap music, child musicians, or ebonics in young children?  Or is it all of the above? :headscratch:

Te be fair I didn't think the show was that terrible.  They did get some really great acts, and some really stupid ones.  I just wished they'd show less of the stupid ones.

And to everyone saying that modern TV shows like this suck, may I remind you that this type of show has been around for at least 35 years.   Anyone remember Ed McMahon's Star Search show from the 1980's??  As I recall it was pretty much the same concept.

I just found it amusing that they choose Brits to host/judge and American show.

The British accents are there to add legitimacy to the ratings-based judging style.  The judges aren't there to judge the best acts, but rather to make sure that the most popular ones get the most coverage.

I'm not trolling, I'm really confused.
