    Boring..

    It's not very interesting after a while but if your tweens like it there's nothing that bad in it.

    This show is NOT for kids under 13

    Common Sense's review of "Got Talent" is outdated; it was first posted when Regis hosted the show in 2006. Since then, the show has gotten raunchier. Every episode of "Got Talent" this season has been rated TV-14 due to risque performances. There are, however, remarkable performances by some contestants who have God-given talents.

    I love this show. Great to watch with the kiddies.

    I make an effort to turn off the commercials but I do allow the kids to watch this show. It really is great for the whole family. My kids sing and dance while watching this show. I'm glad it's starting back up. I saw a promo for this show the other day and there will be the cutest 4 year old singing. I'm sure my little one will want to be her. Love it.

    Interesting Variety of Things, Some Material of Questionable Value

    This show is kind of fun to watch. There are things on it not so good for kids: drag queens, burlesque, temper tantrums by judges (saying “I quit”, storming off the set, continuing to make a scene in front of camera in dressing room, relenting and coming back. Pathetic). There are other things on it that are OK, like the magicians, ventriloquists, and bluegrass musicians.

    kinda stupid, but not the worst thing on tv

    its entertaining in a weird sort of way, not the worst thing on tv. some of the acts are questionable, especially at first, but when they get down to a few acts, they have normally weeded out the very odd or questionable ones.

    Horrible junk TV

    complete waste of time, an insult to our intellegence. No talent, put some talented people on this show who deserve the air time.Staged, looks like something from the 80's. Low budget, Terrible, Terrible, Terrible

    Mostly entertaining but some questionable talent/characters

    My husband insisted this was a family show and then the weird angel-winged guy and the racy female stripper had him fast forwarding the tivo. We really enjoyed some of the musical talent. In these early episodes it seems anything goes.

    Love the concept

    I love this show a lot. Its funny,wonderful, and even emotional and keeps you on the edge of your seat. Lately there seem to be more provocative acts such as stripping, and pole dancing. So parents have to watch those because you never know when those acts are going to be up ( unless you see a big metal pole) then I'll be able to guess. I'll admit I have laughed so hard, and I've cried. The kids seem to really make me tear up. ( especially this one boy who didn't even talk till the age of three ) that was phenomenal. so be ready to laugh and cry. The judges: Pierce (I think hes supposed to be the mean judge but hes rather kind . Osborne : very sweet. Hasselhoff : very funny. So what are you waiting for you've heard my review so go watch it :)

    Love the talents

    I love wacthing people do incredible talents except for the people who get the xes (I mean by "ENNNNNNNNNNN' THE RED X?) Sometimes though this tv show may show girls in bikinis girfls dressing modestly then slowly taking off their clothes reavilng them in a bikini so just wacth out for those talents.

    Ehhh.....I'm a little disapointed.

    I used to love this show!!!! This year it's just not working for me. They're like completely losing their credability!!! it's like Sanjaya all over again! I really can't beleive some of the people they're putting through. Boy Shakira????? come on!!! he dances NOTHING like Shakira!!!!! and i don't know one of their names but all he did was dance VERY VERY VERY badly and lip sync and he made it to the top 20!!!!! and yet, Fallon, the Ah-mazing guitar player and singer had to go home!!! i have Nothing against Mrs.Sharon Osbourne, but she is the new judge and last year better people made it. she did support both of those acts VERY strongly. I'm not very happy with the top 20 and i srtongly hope someone with REAL talent wins. my personal favorite is Cas Haley (not sure how to spell that)i hope the semifinals and finals are better.

    A great show

    My family normally doesn't watch reality shows, but this time we made an exception. There are tons of wacky, entertaining, and definately talented people that audition. There are few that shouldn't be shown to younger kids, like the strippers, but other than that, this show is great. Piers is strict but loveable, Brandy is pretty and sweet, and David is a mix of te two. Overall, a great show!

    Fun for older kids and adults

    This show is very entertaining and will not bor you one single bit! But there are some things you might want you child watching. There has been men dressed, lets say, not appropiate and lady strippers! If you watch this with your child you will love this show.

    A review...

    I can't get enogugh of this show. Combine American Idol, So you think you can dance, and various other shows and put it in a hilarious inspiring package: then you've got america's got talent. VERY cool.
