TAZE K. @tazeknight Nov 18 Saw the first episode and was very disappointed by the decision of judge May. Stuart was the obvious person to go, he was in a different league than Michelle. I could not believe May said it was a close call. I’m not giving this show a second chance. After the episode I looked to see if others had the same reaction and saw an article in the guardian that mentioned he was saved because of who he is. I don’t know if the show corrected their philosophy later to base evaluations on true merit. Ann was awesome though! Loved everything she did. See more Read all reviews
