The second season of America's Got Talent is scheduled to premiere on NBC in the summer of 2007. Jerry Springer will replace Regis Philbin as host [1], and it is unknown if Season 1 judges Piers Morgan, Brandy, and David Hasselhoff will remain.
The show was originally announced to debut in January 2007[2], with a timeslot of Sunday nights at 8PM; however, the network has replaced it on the winter schedule with another reality talent show, Grease: You're The One That I Want. This move will keep America's Got Talent out of indirect competition with American Idol, which airs in the same January-May timeframe that AGT was supposed to be competing in and has consistently been one of the highest rated shows on television. This change also will allow the show to have a standalone results show, which would not have been possible on NBC's crowded winter and spring schedules.
