How it Works

The season begins with auditions with the judges. Similar to The Gong Show, if the judges don't care for the audition, they press a buzzer. If all three judges press the buzzer the contestant is eliminated from the competition. (They have been known to cheat and press each other's buzzer.) In the semi-final round, the viewers of the show call toll free to vote for their favorite contestant, eliminating one contestant each week.
Here Comes the Judges

Season one of America's Got Talent was judged by David Hasselhoff, singer Brandy, and ex-journalist Piers Morgan. The show was hosted by Regis Philbin. Season two Sharon Osbourne replaced Brandy as a judge, and talk show host Jerry Springer replaced Philbin. In season 4, Nick Cannon replaced Springer.
Season 4

While taping auditions for the 4th season of the show, it was reported that judges Piers Morgan and David Hasselhoff got into an extreme argument after disagreeing on the approval of a set of contestants. Hasselhoff threatened to head-butt Morgan and verbally assault him. The argument ended when the audience booed Hasselhoff and the judges left the stage for a cooling off period. The argument is expected to air during or after the season premiere on June 23, 2009.Reality TV World: Piers Morgan and David Hasselhoff Clash at Talent Audition (April 13, 2009) Also in season 4, MySpace auditions will be featured on one episode of the show.reality blurred: Myspace Video Auditions Will Be Featured on America's Got Talent 4 (May 4, 2009)
