Telly’s Take
The ratings have been solid so I’m not exactly going out on a limb when I say that NBC will renew this show, unless something unforeseen happens. In addition to doing very well for the Peacock Network, last year’s ratings rose significantly on both Tuesdays and Wednesdays. I’ll update this page as soon as the renewal becomes official.

What do you think? Do you hope America’s Got Talent will be renewed for a 13th season? How would you feel if NBC cancelled this TV show, instead?
America’s Got Talent is a talent search show, they do not get renewed yearly like most shows and since they are finishing up the open casting calls feb 23rd, 2018…..I would assume that they will be coming back by march or april 2018.
Tyra Banks could go
i thought there was supposed to be a show from las vegas tonigh. heard this from one of the performers. cant fing any info……..kinda bummed
If a performer told you this; I would really begin question how valid this person is in sources, it was not a live show…but just an audition. You would have had to sign up ahead of time for it like most do but for the future it can be found here because other than this site and on their show they don’t publicize it much anywhere else

Can’t wait
Waiting for new season, one of my favorite things to watch on TV
I am looking forward to season 13 of AGT ; it is one of my favorite shows .
I’m sure people ;will flock to Las Vegas for the little girl’s puppet show; i think the cool lighted-up guys should’ve won. the little girl is very talented, but the lighted-up guys offered a spectacular show
I love Tyra Banks! She is so amusing, sweet and kind to all the contestants! And her costumes are awesome!
Yes. I hope AGT is renewed for Season 13. For a guest judge next season, I would like to see actor C. Thomas Howell. He may decline, but whoever is in charge of selecting guest judges can at least contact him. He is a great actor, and would probably have a blast as a guest judge.
Renew the show, but with a new host. Tyra is awful – no Nick, for sure.
Let it continue for all the audience.
The golden buzzer has already been used. The little girl singer /ventriloquist made it to finals. She deserved it.
