Subject: SPLIT TALENT UP AGAIN. All talent in one night has to skew scores in some way. It is such a long show Author: No name [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ] Date Posted: 10:40:59 08/12/25 Tue Author Host/IP: NoHost/165.225.62.123 In reply to: 's message, "Miss America Wish List" on 15:30:03 08/10/25 Sun [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ]

Subject Author Date Of course it does. I even believe that placement mattered back when they were split into 3 groups. As an audience member I simply cannot fathom sitting through 51 talents, back to back. No matter how good. In addition, I 've also found myself getting antsy at locals that have 15-20 talents. I can't imagine what those judges must be feeling. I would assume they would start tuning out after the first 30. Whoever the production director is that suggested this madness must be a complete amateur at producing stage shows.

All the talents are not the same, so there is some variety. Just curious (NT) -- No name, 13:34:03 08/12/25 Tue (NoHost/128.163.239.178) It would have to be a very mesmerizing entertainer to keep my attention focused for that long. Someone like a Streisand or some show with lots of effects. I'm assuming with intros and everything else this talent night drags on for 3 hours or more. I'm sure I'm not the only ADD person out there and I'm also pretty sure that after about 30 talent acts a couple of judges are about to chew their paw off to get out of there. Do they do this in alphabetical order?

They compete in lottery order for interview & talent. 10/11 miss semi-finalists were in the second half of the show. 9 of the 11 teen semi-finalists went in the second half of their show as well. Will be interesting to see if the pattern follows this year. (NT) -- No name, 22:41:27 08/13/25 Wed (NoHost/165.225.58.23) Robin doesn't care. It's a business; rules are just a bother to her. Look at PA where contestants had restraining orders against a bully contestant, and it didn't matter one bit to Robin.
