I thought most acts were mediocre except the little girl ventriloquist who was outstanding. Glad she got the golden buzzer. I miss Nick. Tyra can't take his place.

Darci was my favorite too, it will take a lot to top her!

I don't like clowns and was ready to flip the channel when he walked on stage, but WOW, glad I didn't. Totally unexpected!

I also like the magician who did the card trick.

I like Tyra, but I too missed Nick.

It was fabulous, I still have to see the rest on the DVR. So Much Talent! Where was I when they passed it out?

Deliberately didn't watch it last night because I can't stand Tyra Banks.

I read not too long ago that there is already a lawsuit filed against Tyra for the way she treated a child who was on the show. Apparently the show is going to edit out as much as they can before her appearance is shown, but some of it will make it to air.

Also heard that Tyra is doing well as the new host, except that there is concern as to what will happen when they get to the live shows because Tyra often needs more than one "take" to get it right.

Saw the last half hour. Darci was great!

Miss Nick - he was such a good host.

AGT and BGT are two shows I really enjoy watching. Glad they've both started their new season.

Loved the chicken and the magician too. Forgot them.

Thanks for posting that. She was wonderful and so pretty.

That chicken was so funny! Not a big fan of Tyra but I love the show so have to overlook her I guess. Puddles was looking like a thumbs down until he stared singing. Darci was a doll!!

I wonder what happened to Nick? Anyone know? He did such a good job on that show, so talented, and I loved the way he would get on the stage and 'rescue' a contestant when things got too awkward. Wonder if Tyra will be able to do that. I'd never even heard of Tyra Banks before, don't think I was missing much. To me it seemed like she was trying to imitate Nick's expressions, reactions, etc., but it didn't come across as very natural. I missed his antics a lot. But I love the show more than I disliked Tyra, so I will get used to her. I hope.

The chicken surprised me, I thought it was a definite buzzer act, but it was pretty good once it decided to do its thing. It will be interesting to see how they upgrade that act for the next level. Just how entertaining and talented can a chicken be? ? ?

I'm with Simon on the clowns, I most definitely do NOT like them! And I thought Puddles deserved the buzzers he got! But that voice was a big surprise!

And the brother-sister dance team! Wow! How in the world can anyone spin that much that fast and not be falling down dizzy?

Nick and NBC had a falling out and he walked away.

Don't watch much TV ... and don't know whether this "AGT" is available in Canada ...

... but, to me, who worked in Alberta for a while, over 30 years ago ...

..."AGT" means "Alberta Government Telephones".

ole joyful

I can't say I have any love for ventriloquism (it seems scary/weird to me) but I teared up over lovely little Darci's performance which someone posted on Facebook. Incredible!

LOL OJ! In this case "AGT" means America's Got Talent. I have no idea whether it is available in Canada or not.

I thought Nick added so much to that show. I don't see that with Tyra although this is the first time I've ever seen her.

OMG - not a show for me but I did check out the young lady after reading this - WOW.

I thought Tyra did an ok job. And I agree with Emory, not a big fan of ventriloquism. She was cute though. And the clown guy....creepy. He has a good voice, needs to ditch the costume.

"Nick and NBC had a falling out and he walked away."

Nick Cannon did a Showtime Comedy Special and NBC had some issues with a joke he told on the show. Nick felt the network didn't have the right to censor him when he is doing things not connected to AGT. So, he left.
