Judges’ Comments:
Heidi Klum said the team did an amazing job to start the show and said they are so full of energy. She described them as “explosive”, like a soda that burst open when shaken.
Howie Mandel agreed it’s very exciting and everything and that they were amazing. He said one of his favorite acts throughout the years was V. Unbeatable, who dances and does all those acrobatics. “And this is the American version of that kind of talent. I love watching it. I do think that cheer needs to be front and center.” However, Howie wonders if their performance is better or if they upped it from the last time. Heidi and Sofia said it is. Howie concluded by saying, “Listen, I thought you were great last time, I thought you were great this time and I’m gonna be cheering you on.”
Sofia Vergara thinks they were amazing. She said, “The energy they bring to the stage is unbelievable. What you guys do is not easy. The training, it’s like athletes. I totally understand how hard and difficult it is and I do think that you guys did a better job than the first time, no matter what this guy (pointing to Howie) here said.”
Host Terry Crews commented that he agrees with Sofia Vergara.
America’s Got Talent Season 15
This season is most notable for its production being affected by the COVID-19 or coronavirus pandemic in 2020, which impacted audition sessions. The program initially moved to filming without an audience present at auditions, before ultimately suspending production. Auditions were later allowed to continue, but via online applications from those quarantined in their homes.
The production staff decided to push through with the broadcast as planned and premiere on May 26.
Production resumed the week of June 22, 2020, filming on a film backlot in Simi Valley, decorated to look like a drive-in movie theater. Everyone, including the judges and host Terry Crews, wore masks when not on camera. The Judge Cuts round was reduced from four episodes to one, and the acts were reduced from 72 to 60. The live shows will feature 44 acts over four weeks, compared to 36 acts appearing over three weeks last season.
Producers decided to include a virtual audience for the Live Shows and Universal Studios Hollywood was chosen as the venue for performances to take place.
Prior to the first quarter-final’s live broadcast, Cowell became involved in an electric bike accident that left him with a severe back injury. Cowell had surgery to repair the damage, and the production staff recruited guest judges like Kelly Clarkson and Kenan Thompson to stand in for him until doctors would allow him to return to AGT.
