Add me to ping list. Wife and I love to watch AGT.
Wish Nick Cannon would return as emcee. Can’t stand Tyra Banks.

Just goes to show you- everybody likes something different! My family and I also love AGT (it’s become the one show we all have to watch together). We all think Tyra is a huge improvement- my daughter just adores her.

Tyra is an entrepreneur and a business CEO!

Agree. I love Tyra in other contexts, but she was often tongue-tied and stammering on AGT. Nick was so much fun to watch interacting with the performers.

He got fired because he was doing stand-up in some entirely other context like a comedy club, and he used the n-word.

Nea Wood, freedom1st, cld51860, Notthereyet - you all have been added to the ping list. :)

Albion Wilde, willyd, TexasBarak, Vinnie - This is a one time ping, to find out if any of you want to be added to the ping. I totally understand if some people just want to pop in here and there to comment but not necessarily be on a ping list. I’m just double checking. :)

I thought Nick Cannon was so funny too. Tyra is ok, but she’s no Nick, that’s for sure.

But I have to confess that his black lives matter video and poem gave me pause in a few spots. Things like:

But there ain’t no such thing as black on black violence
It’s crime against you and me!
Intolerance of people

So it’s like when I say save the whales
That don’t mean the other fish can’t float
It just means that the whales are endangered
Just like my species

There are certainly things I agree with him about, and he stated he wasn’t voting for Clinton or Trump, so I’m guessing Sanders got his vote.

But who is endangering his species more, the very few cops out there, some of which are just doing their jobs, or the black on black violent criminal taking of lives?

Having said that, to his credit, he never tried to politicize the show and I always looked forward to his comments, facial expressions and often involvement in and with the acts.
