'''America Needs TalANT''' is the eighteenth episode in season one of A.N.T. Farm. It aired on November 25, 2011. This was the first hour-long episode of ''[[A.N.T. Farm]]''.
 
 
==Plot==
 
[[Chyna]] and Lexi audition for a popular talent show, [[America Needs Talent]], and are invited to the next round in Hollywood. However, during their drive to Los Angeles, [[Chyna]], [[Olive]], [[Fletcher]], [[Cameron]] and [[Darryl]] encounter some wild adventures that almost keep Chyna from getting to the show on time. Elsewhere in Los Angeles, Olive and [[Paisley]] enter a game show competition called "The Brainy Bunch" while Cameron, Fletcher and Darryl wait in a very long line for a popular food truck.
 
 
==Episode Summary==
 
In the first half of the episode, a reality show called "America Needs Talent" arrives at Webster High, and everyone auditions to be on it; however the only people who get picked to be finalists on the show are Chyna and Lexi. Unfortunately, Chyna's dad Darryl is afraid of flying anywhere, so Chyna, Olive, Fletcher, Cameron, and Darryl end up driving to LA themselves and end up in Solvang, California, where they get harassed by a walrus after Darryl insults and honks the walrus to get out of the way, getting them in a windmill jail. Eventually Darryl, Olive, Fletcher, and Cameron end up on the turbine of the windmill, and Chyna rescues them by slipping through the bars covered in fish oil to slip through and flip the switch to stop it. While this is happening, Lexi's suitcase at the hotel in Hollywood is mistaken for a suitcase filled with money, and Lexi and Paisley try to find it. In the second half, Chyna arrives just in time for the show, and both Chyna and Lexi go on to the final round. Lexi then tries to make herself a role model by pretending to be Chyna's friend, which ends up Chyna and Lexi being roommates at the hotel. Later, Lexi tries to steal Chyna's song to humiliate Chyna on the show. However, Chyna overhears Lexi tell Paisley her plan and gives Lexi a fake song and costume design and props to use for the show, and Lexi ends up as the one who gets humiliated. After they both sing, Chyna tells Lexi that there is enough spotlight for the both of them and they hug. Meanwhile, Olive and Paisley enter a game show competition and Paisley keeps pressing the buzzer with goofy answers, and Cameron, Fletcher and Darryl wait in line at a popular food truck.

==Trivia==
 
*This is the first hour-long episode of [[A.N.T. Farm]].
 
*"America Needs Talent" is a parody of "[[wikipedia:America's Got Talent|America's Got Talent]]".
 
*"The Brainy Bunch" is a parody of "[[wikipedia:The Brady Bunch|The Brady Bunch]]" and Barry Williams, the host, played Greg Brady.
 
*"Yo! I'm From Jersey" is a parody of "[[wikipedia:Jersey Shore (TV series)|Jersey Shore]]."
 
*During Lexi's "America Needs Talent" audition, she was dressed as [[wikipeda:Nicole Polizzi|Snooki]] from "[[wikipedia:Jersey Shore (TV series)|Jersey Shore]]".
 
*Nicky G is a parody of "[[wikipedia:Paul DelVecchio|Pauly D]]" from "Jersey Shore" and Nick Cannon, host of "America's Got Talent".
 
*"Deadliest Batch" is a parody of "[[wikipedia:Deadliest Catch|Deadliest Catch]]".
 
*This is the second time Oprah is mentioned on A.N.T. Farm, the first being [[ParticipANTs]].
 
*This marks the first time Wacky the wolf is seen talking (singing opera).
 
*"America Needs Talent" abbreviated is A.N.T.
 
*'''Reception:''' 3.409 million viewers.
 
*When Chyna tells Lexi that her song is going to be "Beautiful", it actually was the song "Beautiful".
 
*Paisley's quote "America Needs Talent is a battle to the death? These reality shows are getting out of hand." Maybe a reference to "The Hunger Games" from a trilogy of the same name

==Goofs==
 
*It is never said how [[Angus]] was going to pay for all the food he bought or how he even got to Los Angeles.
 
*Before [[Lexi]] put the blanket on her hair was a mess, but a minute later, without a brush, her hair was like usual.
 
*[[Chyna]]'' (excluding the theme song)'' has never sang [[Exceptional]] yet, although Lexi asked if she was going to sing Exceptional. It's possible, however, that she sang it off-camera
 
*Chyna mentioned Lady Gaga, though in [[CANTonese Style Cuisine]], [[Madam GooGoo]] appears who is an obvious parody of Lady Gaga, though they may both exist in the universe of [[A.N.T. Farm]].
 
*[[Olive]] sleeps at the hotel but in [[Slumber Party ANTics]] it is said that Olive has never slept at other people's houses, though she may have gotten over her that by now
