So far this summer, NBC's "America's Got Talent" has dominated the airwaves with higher ratings than all of its competition.

In last night's episode, the top 40 contestants were revealed as the hit reality show starts reaching the core of its contest.

One moment that really struck me was when 13-year-old dancer Arcadian Broad was put through to the finals.  He said that he had waited a long time "for something like this to come along."  I think it's great that he's achieving his dreams, but really?  A long time?  YOU'RE ONLY 13! 

WATCH Arcadian's first audition.

It would be a completely different story if you were 60.

Just saying.
