To no surprise, NBC has renewed America’s Got Talent for an 11th season next summer. Casting dates were announced for Detroit, New York, Phoenix, Salt Lake City, Las Vegas, San Jose, San Diego, Kansas City, Atlanta, Los Angeles, Orlando, and Dallas.
The reality competition is the highest-rated summer series on all of the broadcast networks. The Tuesday editions are currently averaging a 2.35 rating in the 18-49 demographic with 10.65 million viewers. The Wednesday editions have been averaging a 1.6 in the demo with 8.65 million.
It hasn’t been announced if Nick Cannon, Howie Mandel, Mel B, or Heidi Klum will be returning for the new season or where the series will be shot. The show currently films in New York and had been moved there to accomodate judge Howard Stern. Earlier this summer, Stern announced that he was leaving the show after four seasons so production may move back to Los Angeles.
The current 10th season is scheduled to conclude on Wednesday, September 16th.
What do you think? Do you like the America’s Got Talent TV series? Who should replace Stern at the judges’ table?
Simon Cowell to replace Stern,now that’s an improvement. Now, if they can just bring back Paula Abdul and Randy Jackson.
I want Sean Diddy Combs as a judge
Seeing as they had a farwell for Howard today and that the other judges had to confirm their plans for next season about a month or so back, I bet that the rest are staying but only time will tell.
I could care less. I love Nick Cannon who really makes this show great but after last night’s voting and sending Siro home and allowing others to go this far, I have decided after this season is done, I am done. I will miss Nick. America seems to vote more on sob stories than real talent and how did the regurgitator get this far? He made me sick and belongs as a circus act not AGT.
I gave a previous post before but I don’ t see it anywhere. What I said was I stopped watching for these reasons: I do not like the up close and personal among the judges doing silly things; don’t like the up close and personal among the contestants. These 2-things get tedious. I do not like dangerous stunts which I see every now and then. For example, the “magician” who puts firecracker in his mouth after Howie mixes them up and then the “magician” puts one in his mouth and lights it. Yes, Howard Stern loved this. Shame on him.… Read more »
