To no surprise, NBC is bringing their successful competition TV show, America’s Got Talent, back for another round next summer.

The competitors and acts might be different each night but the judges will remain the same next season. Piers Morgan, Sharon Osbourne, and Howie Mandel will return, as will host Nick Cannon. Though Morgan will supposedly be taking over Larry King’s timeslot on CNN, he’ll apparently be able to juggle both jobs.

Here’s the official press release from the network…
