Judges Were Left Unsatisfied With Antonio's Performance. Here's Why!
Somehow, the judges found his audition piece more entertaining
Remember Antonio, the spoken word poetry artist that was admired by many because of his quick thinking and impressive poems? Well, he was one of the 28 acts who moved into the semi-finals of the sixth season of Pilipinas Got Talent.
Antonio was given another chance to prove that he deserves a spot in the grand finals of the show. He was chosen by the judges simply because they were impressed by his quick thinking.
However, at some point, the judges were left unsatisfied by his semi-finals piece. Somehow, the judges didn't feel anything and that they were even more entertained by his audition piece.
Judge Angel Locsin said that his piece was great but she failed to feel anything.
"Napakaganda ng mga sinabi mo at iniimagine ko na ang ganda siguro niyan kapag naging linya sa isang pelikula. Bagay na bagay siya. Kaya lang Antonio, ang ganda ng sinabi mo pero hindi ko siya naramdaman," Judge Angel said

Meanwhile, Robin simply admired him for his way of speaking.
"Alam mo iho, ikaw ang itsura ng bagong Pilipino eh. Ikaw 'yun eh... Alam mo, bilib ako sa'yo kasi sa gitna ng pananakop ng Dayuhan ay napapa-angat mo 'yung sariling atin!"
However, it was Judge Vice Ganda who did all the talking and criticizing in his performance. Vice Ganda congratulated him for his audition piece had reached millions of views.
"Congratulations sa'yo, ang daming nanuod ng audition piece mo, 7 million na. Alam mo, ang nagiging problema, ang daming magagaling at bagong acts nung audition na sadyang kinagiliwan nating lahat, ang nagiging problema, hindi niyo nasu-sustain yung magandang impression namin sa inyo..
Vice then continued and said that his semi-finals performance was not as entertaining as his audition piece.
"Parang bet na bet na namin kayo tapos pagdating dito, anong nangyari? Katulad nung materyal mong Pakbet, kilig na kilig kami, just like Angel hindi na kami masyadong kinilig ngayon.
Vice then ended his statement by saying that his punchlines are quite old but still, he loves him and that he wishes for him to continue enhancing his skills.
"At may mga punch lines na luma na katulad nung asado at bola bola, yung siomai 'siomai love for you', luma na kasi yung mga 'yun eh. Sana nakaisip ka nga mga mas bagong punch lines
"Gusto ko yung ginagawa mo eh, kaya sana pagyabungin mo pa yung talent na ginagawa mo kasi gustong gusto ko iyan!"
