That, and he focused more on being creepy, which...like, you really shouldn’t do. I think Riana fills that niche better. But yeah, he was fine. Possible dark horse, but I don’t know where this could go. 6.5/10

Academy of Villains: Not gonna give these guys a proper score since they weren’t fully televised, but I really wish they were, because their act is fantastic. They’re super creative and full of charm, and they never fail to impress. I really hope we see them again, and in full.

Vivien Vajda: I liked her a lot, but I wish I saw more. There’s so many cool things this act can go, I just don’t think we saw any of it in the audition. 7/10

Joseph O'Brien: Didn’t really like him that much. His voice is good and all, but he’s super unmemorable. Out of the fully televised singers we’ve seen so far, I may remember him the least. 5/10

French Accent: Honestly? He was great! This kind of comedy is super hard to do well, but the fact that he not only did it well, but he kept a strong personality and sense of his audience throughout, is really impressive. I liked it a lot. I dunno if we’ll see him again, but I’m glad I saw it once. 7/10

Glennis Grace: Holy shit, this girl can slay my life and everything about it. She was amazing! Every fifth episode usually has one of these really good non-GB singers in it, and, while the episode wanted Brody to be it, I think Glennis fits the role like a glove. What an amazing voice. 8/10

Dr. Eisenberg: He seems like a nice guy, but...uh, no thank you. 2/10

Kenny Thomas: I liked what he did, and I liked the prospect of him accidentally running Howie over, but I don’t think he showed us enough of what he could do, which seems to be a common theme with these danger/acrobatic acts lately. Still, he’s got strong potential. 7/10

Rob Lake: Finally, a fully televised magician! He was pretty good, and I really liked how intricate and detailed his whole setup is. I don’t think his showmanship really shone through enough in this one trick, but the trick itself was honestly pretty damn impressive. He was pretty great! Good job, Rob. 7.5/10

Brian King Joseph: To me, my favorite kind of act with a “sob story” is when the story affects the act or the performance, a la Mandy Harvey. With that said, what Brian’s doing is impressive enough on its own. And he was also SUPER KICKASS! Seriously, I don’t even like the song he picked but hot damn if he didn’t make it sound super unique and awesome. I love his style, I love his story, I love his personality, and, if I’m being honest, he may be my favorite tonight. Bravo, Mr. Joseph! 9/10

Andy Huggins: Comedians are kind of slim this season, and, while I don’t think we’re quite sure if he’s a contender, I thought Andy did a passable job. Yeah, it was super dirty and gross, but he played it off well, and I got a good chuckle from a few of the jokes. He was alright. Once again, not sure if this is a million dollar act, though. I did like how it kicked off the "NBC wants Mel B kicked off of AGT" montage, though. 6/10

Bill Thrasher: Well, that was something. Not sure what it was, though. 3/10

Brody Ray: I think you guys are being a little tough on him, to be completely honest. I know he’s ANOTHER white guy with a guitar, but, honestly? He’s a really good white guy with a guitar! I think his story is great and his voice is strong. Not the best we’ve seen, but certainly pretty good. That said, I bet he’s gonna split the vote COMPLETELY if he makes the lives. How do the conservative white Southerns choose between loving WGWGs and hating LGBT people? 7.5/10 Troy James was good, that's all i'm saying.
