America’s Got Talent was live last night with the third of four quarterfinals. Some of the acts seemed nervous, but some were incredible.

Howard Stern noted how the judges from all the other shows are leaving, and he wonders why. This is interesting given that AGT has asked him back for another season.

The Untouchables were up first, and Howard Stern called them “remarkable.” Howie said that with dancers their age it typically seems like a recital, but they seemed professional. Sharon says she adores them.

Wisconsin native (this writer’s home state) Rock Star Juggler Mike Price was up next. He incorporated a unicycle into his act, but the judges weren’t impressed overall. He didn’t do himself any favors by dropping a bowling pin. Price cited the pressure as the reason he dropped it. Duh. Of course there’s pressure. It’s reality TV.

Known as the urban Glee, Inspire the Fire took the stage next. Howie wasn’t inspired and he thought it seemed like a cheesy high school musical. He said that The Untouchables outdanced them and that their singing wasn’t strong. Sharon said everything about it seemed wrong. Howard said they did themselves a lot of damage and that it seemed like a rehearsal.

Cristin Sandu took the stage next. His act was extremely difficult and he fell, but without harm. Howard gave him an ‘X’ because it didn’t work. Sandu too cited nerves. Sharon felt sorry because he is talented. Howie also feels terrible and the judges and the crowd gave him a round of applause. The end for Sandu is in sight.

B-boy Elusive performed next. The judges again say how stiff the dance competition is this year, and Howie can’t wait for the dance-off between him and Turf. Sharon doesn’t know that it’s a million dollar act. Howard had previously liked him more than Turf, but he’s unsure if he’ll go through or not as he didn’t think the performance was spectacular tonight.

Jake Wesley Rogers has a very strong voice, but this was easily his weakest performance. Howard didn’t think that Rogers was able to connect with “Toxic.” Howie didn’t like the arrangement of the song and that a singer would need to blow everyone away because he doesn’t think a singer will win this year. Sharon reminds everyone that he is 15 years old and that he is her favorite of the night so far.

All Wheel Sports – but mainly people jumping on trampolines – took the stage next. Sharon loves the combination of everything and thinks it’s the best act of this kind to come on the show. Howard loved it but doesn’t know that America will send them on. Howie said that he saw a headlining act at Las Vegas, but doesn’t think it translated to TV. He’s right.

The New York City based band Wordspit and The Illest took the stage next with a very risky song choice – an original song. Howie said that they were and are his favorite group that auditioned for the show. He thinks that they made the most disastrous choice they could have made by performing an original song. Sharon called their energy fantastic, but viewers at home can’t feel the energy. She agrees that choosing an original song was a bad choice. Howard loved that they did original music as it shows that they can write music. He also said the song they performed was an amazing song. They wanted to come out and give us them, not somebody else.

Jacob Williams, Chicago based stand-up comedian, promises that his act tonight will have his best jokes so far. His routine brought the audience to their feet. Sharon thinks that he’s awkward, but she likes him. Howard sees him having a career in comedy. Howard thinks either Williams or fellow comedian Tom Cotter could go all the way. Howie calls him the best act of the night, and that he thinks we will see him again.

Drag queen All Beef Patty took the stage next, and Howard doesn’t think she showed enough to move on. Howie agrees with Howard that she appeared more cabaret than Vegas. Sharon hopes people vote for her because she “lifted the show tonight.”

Escape artist Spencer Horsman‘s act promises to be one of the most dangerous to ever be on the show. The spikes that he hangs over are proven to be deadly. Sharon thinks the wiggling behind the screen is boring. Howard thinks the excitement was taken out of the act and that he failed. Howie noted that seeing Horsman’s elbow scraped seemed like a letdown after what the spikes could have done.

Lightwire Theater took the stage, and Howie said all his twitter followers were saying one thing – “Wow.” Sharon said they were spectacular. Howard says they left it all on the stage and it was a million dollar act.

Picks to advance: The Untouchables, Elusive, Jacob Williams, and Lightwire Theater

AGT will be back tomorrow night at 9 PM ET/PT.
