There was a moment during tonight’s episode of America’s Got Talent
when I had faith in the system.  A rather ordinary magician with a
generic sob story did a traditional and dull trick.  The judges
recognized that they liked him and his story, but there was nothing
special about the act.  The Hoff said no.  I thought for a moment that,
for once, the show would rise above being a stupid personality contest
and actually reward talent.

That dream died, because the other two judges said yes.  Despite saying
that his act was boring and they’ve seen the same thing by many other
people who they didn’t put through, they put him through because they
liked him.  This is not a talent show, it’s a damn popularity contest.
