Did anyone watch this show, it premiered after the Super Bowl last night? It is a talent competition hosted by James Corden and judges Dew Barrymore, Faith Hill, and RuPaul get to vote. They're rerunning the episode tomorrow night at 8:00, it settles into its regular time slot, Wednesday 8:00-10:00. I thought it was good, they get talent from around the world the American judges vote, there is a wall of world judges that also vote. Two standouts were a man from Mongolia and a woman from Japan.

I thought it was good fun and not overly silly. Most of the contestants had sweet talerts and were truly entertaining.

 

But that “sword swallower” was hard to watch (I looked away) and I just waited for that to be over. Glad he was not voted to continue in competition.  

 

I’m going to watch or DVR it for a few more times. James Corden makes me laugh for sure.

Thank you for mentioning this @Jordan2-

I just watched the violin player from Japan (online).

All the judges were cryingSmiley Happy

I'm glad its not on the same night as America's Got Talent!

I didn't watch. Maybe it's better than it sounds. Just not sure I can go another 'amateur hour' competition show. There are already so many.

My husband and I watched it.  I thought it was very good.  I was also impressed by the quality of the different sets for each contestent.  I don't ususally watch these types of shows but really enjoyed this one.

I watched it and enjoyed it.  I had scheduled it because I have always liked RuPaul and Drew Barrymore, but I don't know who the other lady is.  She is quite lovely and nice, so I liked her too.

 

The first act was beyond amazing and I really liked the 3 boys singing.  Sword dude - nah.   I love violin, so that was also a wonderful act and her story was pretty amazing.
