America's Got Talent

Quarterfinals, Week 1 Results

Release Date: Jul 13, 2011
Episode Description

Twelve acts stepped onto the "America's Got Talent" live stage Tuesday night, but eight dreams will be crushed by the time an hourlong results episode is over tonight. After a few words from Howie, in which he claimed that Tuesday night's episode let him feeling like he was dreaming, host Nick Cannon brings us some real results. To the results: Nick calls the Fearless Flores Family, Duo Aero and Snap Boogie to the stage. After a recap of who the judges loved and hated (they pretty much loved the Flores Family and Snap Boogie, and didn't much care for Duo Aero), Nick tells us just one of them will remain in the competition. Piers says he's surprised to see the Floreses and Snap Boogie on stage, but that if he had to choose between them he'd take Snap Boogie. America agrees. Snap Boogie is on to the next round. After a big, long hug from the Flores dad, Snap tells Nick he's "super-happy" and that the crowd gave him all the energy he needed Tuesday to get through a leg injury. Sharon says she's "absolutely overjoyed" and that Snap "really, really" deserves to be there. Nick gives Cedric the Entertainer a chance to plug his new game show, which is ... oh, hey! It's on NBC, just like "America's Got Talent"! Be our guest: Avril Lavigne takes the stage to perform her new single, "Smile." Later, we're treated to a performance from the Tony Award-winning musical, "Priscilla Queen of the Desert." Back to the results: Nick calls for Squonk Opera, Sandau Trio Russian Bar and J. Chris Newberg. The recap comes and we recall that Piers and Sharon both buzzed Squonk Opera, they thought the Sandau Trio was one of the most amazing and dangerous acts they've ever seen, and while Howie loved Mr. Newberg, Piers was not a fan in the least. Only one of the three can go through. Howie says he thinks Chris has a career regardless of what happens here, Squonk Opera may be too weird for America, and that voters will likely have gone with Sandau Trio. He's right. Piers jokes that he's "bitterly disappointed" in the result because the "singers from hell" and the world's least funny -- er, second-least funny comedian" (a shot at Howie) have gone home. He's excited to see what the Russian bar act does next. Up next are Dezmond Meeks, Echo from Animal Gardens and Anna Graceman. The judges were mixed on Dezmond, with Howie saying it was "cruise shippy"; they liked Echo, but maybe not enough for a million dollars; and they loved Anna. Sharon's put on the spot and says she's "confused and worried." She specifically points out Dezmond and Anna first. She doesn't give a prediction. The act going into the semifinals is Anna Graceman. She says she feels "so special" and thanks the voters. Howie reminds us how he told Anna her world is going to change. He tells her that more fans of the show ask him about her than any other act and that she has "arrived." The judges will decide who gets the last spot. The candidates: Those Funny Little People, the Fiddleheads and Miami All Stars. The judges agreed in their adoration of Miami All Stars; Piers hates Those Funny Little People, while the other judges love them; and all the judges generally love the Fiddleheads, but agreed that they took a wrong turn Tuesday with "Billie Jean." One of the three acts will go home based on the votes. And that act is ... Those Funny Little People. Piers stands up in appreciation and Sharon slaps him on the leg while Nick tells him, "That's not nice." That leaves Miami All Stars and The Fiddleheads, who get a chance to make their cases. The leader of the Miami All Stars tells the judges that their whole crew is trained in several other forms of dance, even though they've only shown the ballroom/salsa stuff. He vows that they'll never be bored watching Miami All Stars. The singer from The Fiddleheads calls out the producers, essentially saying the band took bad advice instead of sticking to its own style and he thinks they can make the most of another chance. After a conveniently placed commercial break to give the judges "time to think," Sharon reveals her choice first. She praises both acts, which she acknowledges are very different. She insists she was disappointed with their song choice on Tuesday, so she gives her vote to the Miami All Stars. Piers thanks America for sending home Those Funny Little People. He tells The Fiddleheads they're a good act and they've improved, but his vote goes to Miami All Stars. Howie's vote is rendered moot, and Miami All Stars are into the next round. First four semifinalists: Snap Boogie, Sandau Trio Russian Bar, Anna Graceman and Miami All Stars.
