Pretty behind. Sorry guys for spam.

Sideshow Opera. I thought the mix of Opera and Knife Throwing was cool, but the knife throwing wasn’t that good especially compared to Deadly Games and the singing wasn’t that good either. They were alright but they drastically need to step up. The foot throwing was really cool though.

Izzy and Easton were good dancers and they are def the best dance duo we’ve seen in a while (way better than Artyon & Paige and Quin & Misha), but for me personally, I could do without Izzy- yes she helped progress the story but damn shes annoying and I think Easton could do good on his own. I don’t really care but I’m just saying. The next round though they need to really make a name for themselves and stand out from the other amazing dance groups and solo dancers or else they’re QF fodder.

Lamont Landers..I had some hope for him but right when Simon stopped my grin slowly dropped and it dropped even further when he said he was singing another song of the exact same genre. What a huge ass waste of time and hell he needs to learn some manners, he was really cocky. With Daniel emmet I get why he got extra time to learn a new song bc he had a lot of potential but why give this guy so many chances? There’s nothing special about him and he needs to be cut the next round or else something is wrong.

Ndlovu was alright, way better than DYC. They put a smile on my face and even if the singing wasn’t the best I thought they were good for the message they were trying to spread. I don’t think this should go too far but they stood out from this not so good episode.

IDEGO. Very interesting premise and it was kind of funny. Unless counted as a comedy act I don’t know where the talent is exactly but it was super entertaining and it’d be cool to see them again.

Emannne Beasha. Oooh an XV representative. She is imo the best kid singer this season but that doesn’t mean too much since besides Charlotte the other two suck (Sophie and Ansley). It was your typical unexpected kid singer but she did pretty good. Nothing absolutely amazing but a thumbs up from me.

Lukas & Falco were a really nice dog act. Besides the rope spinning there wasn’t anything too original but it put a smile on my face and if they improve and do some more new and unique tricks they could go far.

Verba were sensational. However, people are acting like they just saw a shadow act for the first time. I thought they were really good and definitely the best act this episode, but Attraction still stand as the shadow kings. I found VUB and ADEM better dance groups, but they were still enjoyable to watch and if they step up and incorporate more unique storytelling features (like the mix of dancing behind and in front of the screen, that was cool) they could be a huge contender for the win...but I’m not setting that as my final guess yet. I want to see what else they can do.

Ben Trigger. Was funny seeing the golden buzzer pressed by “accident” but the act itself wasn’t that talented. I don’t really care how far he goes. Wasn’t terrible but besides the accidental buzzer it was kind of boring to watch.

Pretty weak episode. Hopefully tomorrow’s episode will be better.
