NBC announced its summer series America’s Got Talent will now expand to a two-hour season premiere on June 23 at 9p and the start date of the new Great American Road Trip series has moved to July 7 at 8p. On America’s Got Talent, entertainer/producer/comedian Nick Cannon is the new host joining celebrity judges, David Hasselhoff, Piers Morgan and Sharon Osbourne. NBC is also toying with the idea of having British singing sensation Susan Boyle make an appearance on America’s Got Talent after her smashing audition on the UK version, though nothing has been confirmed. America’s Got Talent is produced by FremantleMedia North America and Simon Cowell’s SYCO Television. Great American Road Trip is produced by BBC Worldwide.
