- America's Got Talent (sometimes abbreviated as AGT) is an American reality television series on the NBC television network, and part of the global British Got Talent franchise. It is a talent show that features singers, dancers, magicians, comedians, and other performers of all ages competing for the advertised top prize of one million dollars. The show debuted in June 2006 for the summer television season. From season three onwards, the prize includes the one million dollars, payable in a financial annuity over 40 years (or the present cash value of such annuity), and a chance to headline a show on the Las Vegas Strip. Among its significant features is that it gives an opportunity to talented amateurs or unknown performers, with the results decided by an audience vote. The format is a popular one and has often been reworked for television in the United States and the United Kingdom.

It was launched in 2006 and is still ongoing. People audition to win $1,000,000 and (since Season 3) a one-year contract to do a show in Las Vegas. Performers go in front of three judges equipped with buzzers, if all three judges buzz then the act will end prematurely. The show has been hosted by Regis Philbin (Season 1), Jerry Springer (Seasons 2 and 3), and Nick Cannon (Season 4 onward); and the judges are:
* Piers Morgan (who does his best Simon Cowell impersonation) in seasons 1-6, replaced by Howard Stern
* Brandy Norwood in Season 1, replaced by Sharon Osbourne
* David Hasselhoff in Seasons 1-4, replaced by Howie Mandel The first half of each season sees the judges travel the country holding open auditions, putting forward any act that's worthy enough to consider. Then comes "Vegas Week" where all the decent acts are gathered and the judges choose which ones are actually going to compete. The last half of the season takes place in Hollywood with live shows where viewers vote on who goes forward, though the judges still offer their opinions and can use their buzzers to register displeasure. Two memorable performers, Jackie Evancho and Prince Poppycock (both Season 5 finalists) have their own trope pages. Britains Got Talent is its Trans Atlantic Equivalent.
