Susan Boyle, Britain's Got Talent ITV

America's Got Talent was pretty big last night. And if the show scores five more audiences just that same size…well, then it still won't be as big as the biggest Susan Boyle YouTube clip.

Boyle, the Britain's Got Talent runner-up who is expected to pop up sometime this summer on NBC's America's Got Talent counterpart, was only glimpsed—provided you didn't blink—in Tuesday's season premiere.

The show could've used a bit more Boyle. While it averaged a night-best 11.3 million viewers, per preliminary Nielsen estimates, it fell 1.5 million viewers shy of last summer's opener.

Meanwhile, on YouTube, the top Boyle clip stood at 69.2 million views—and counting.
