Is this show rigged?

What do you mean?

As for when they pick the top 10 whatever yes it is rigged in the sense that they never pick 10 brilliant acts but rather 5 brilliant and 5 mediocore which makes it easy to knock them down.

This is common sense and X Factor does it too.

All talent shows are. That's why some performers get to tell their sob stories, while other performers get 20 seconds of screen time. Network TV time is valuable, the winner is chosen far in advance.
