TV column "Das Supertalent": the show goes out of breath

Then comes Miguel. The boy is ten years old and says, "I've been singing German hits for five years." So, five years! Then he carries in a surprisingly adult voice "You made me strong" by Helene Fischer. Judge Sylvie Meis swallows. Bohlen swallows and says, "It was very very sweet, you have talent." The boy gets a standing ovation and is allowed to stay. The spitters have to leave. But does the viewer want to see everything a second time?

"Any shit"

This style continues. A boy takes notes with the violin, like car sirens and cries of donkeys. A woman sits on a turntable for three hours and turns and turns. A lady from Switzerland wants to dance on boards because she thinks he's "great, honest but also sensitive". She brought him a picture and some chocolate, then rubbed his hands in front of and behind him, claiming that she was giving him energy that way. "I have been waiting for many years," she says, starting with her dance. The problem: she does not know how to dance, so the boards imitate her first then throw her out. "It was aerobics, it was a fighting school, but everything was crap!" Bohlen said.

More and more acrobats

It's the 12th season and you can not shake the impression that the show is out of breath. More and more acrobats from far away countries are in action and between many simple and bbad. In any case, no artist can be found so far that can be worth the 100,000 euros of earnings. A professional gymnast from Russia and Ukraine shows figures raised in the look of the Beatles. Two breakdancers dance and promote their own dance school. Lisa from Cologne swings with the high trapeze above the audience. Slow motion is supposed to make things more dramatic. Jury Bruce Darnell thinks it's "awesome", but Bruce thinks everything is "very, really great, awesome, very pretty!" And a professional billiard player from Las Vegas shows off his talents. "It's hard to show tricks on TV," he says. The casting is recorded anyway. Only the Supertalent final in December will be live.

Harmless, but not top clbad

Many are harmless, very kind but without real clbad. About Lorenzo from Italy. At 27, he is a pizza maker and amateur singer. "Making pizza makes me happy, but I love music." His languid performance is very pbadable – but nothing more. Just like the singer of 79 years of the choir "Heaven can wait" of Hamburg. The choir only includes singers over 70 years old. The old lady with the blues voice sings a medley by Jan Delay. And then comes Achi, since he participated in "Adam seeks Eva", also called Mr. Torpedo. "Maybe I can dance a little bit," said the Austrian. "Oh, shit, it can not be good," says Bruce Darnell. Achi shakes like on ecstasy and is expelled quickly. The boy obviously wants to go on television. He asks: "It was really crap?"
