One original member of the Top 22, Philip King, dropped out for unspecified personal reasons and was replaced by Chris Labelle.
Listed below is a selection of criticisms and praises from the Judges Jake Gold, Sass Jordan, Farley Flex and Zack Werner from the Top 5 Performance show to the season finale.
