America's Got Talent is about to take the stage for its fifteenth season. The nation's favorite talent show competition is returning to NBC this week with a new group of singers, comedians, dancers, and more performers to keep the whole family entertained while social distancing. Despite the production shutdowns which have impacted the TV industry since mid-March, America's Got Talent has been lucky enough to continue auditions virtually — as they say, the show must go on.

Season 15 of America's Got Talent features host Terry Crews alongside former judges Simon Cowell and Howie Mandel, returning judge Heidi Klum, and newcoming judge Sofia Vergara. Parts of the season were filmed earlier this year, and for the first time in the history of America's Got Talent, viewers will watch some auditions without an audience in the room. Other auditions to be aired were conducted virtually after traditional production was halted. With that in mind and the uncertainty around filming the rest of the season, there could be some unforeseen delays in the airing of season 15.
