I hate this new format. The only thing I like is that one can vote right away as soon as the 1st act performs. It gives some sort of advantage for the 1st performer being in the Death slot.

I totally agree that they should bring back the Wildcard round next season. It gives us an opportunity to see them perform again and they also get more screen time for the viewing public to be more familiar with them.

From 48 (Vegas round, judges cut down to 36)

to 36 (4 wks - 12 acts per week, 3 regular rounds, 1 wildcard round)

to 24 (2 wks - 12 acts per week, 2 regular rounds, 12 voted in + 4 wildcards by judges)

to 18 (2 wks - 9 acts per week, 2 regular rounds 10 voted in + 2 wildcards by judges)

to 12 (1 wk - Semi-final round, 5 voted in + 1 wildcard by judges)

to 6 (1 wk - Finale - 5 finalists and 1 wildcard)
