Sometimes the audience and fans can be tougher critics than the talent-show judges, case in point,  the fan reactions to comedian Mr Pants' performance on 'America's Got Talent'. The New York-based comedian's stand-up set impressed the NBC talent-hunt show's judges so much that they all gave him a standing ovation after his performance, sadly fans weren't as impressed with his jokes.

Dressed in a giant pant costume, with his head sticking out of the zipper, Mr Pants, definitely stood out in the crowd. Following the dud performance of Keegan the Bicycle Comedian, Mr Pants walked onto the stage, ready to share his trouser-pun jokes. Though the judges weren't very excited about his act at the beginning, his clever puns had them all rolling with laughter by the end. The judges couldn't stop praising his witty set and were excited to see what he might bring to the table for the next round. Though the judges couldn't get enough of Mr Pants, fans, however, felt that he was as terrible as his predecessor Keegan the Bicycle Comedian.
