PASADENA, CALIFORNIA: The last night of Season 19 of 'America's Got Talent' tryouts has ended dramatically, capping off what is already looking to be an exciting season. 'AGT' Season 19 is divided into two parts, similar to previous seasons: Live Shows and Auditions.
Eight distinct two-hour Audition episodes were aired this year, beginning Tuesday, May 28 at 8/7c. After the audition, an act had to receive at least three "Yes" votes from Simon Cowell, Heidi Klum, Howie Mandel, and Sofía Vergara in order to stay in the running to compete in the Live Shows.

When will 'AGT' Season 19 Live Shows air?
Now that the auditions have officially concluded, the judges will confer in order to select the 55 Acts who will proceed to the Live Shows. These will take place over the course of five episodes, with 11 Acts performing each week, starting on Tuesday, August 13 at 8/7c.
Only two Acts every week will move on to the Final during the Live Results broadcasts, with the remaining Acts being eliminated. As a result, 11 Acts in all will square off in the Final for a chance to live in Las Vegas and win a $1 million grand prize.
'AGT' Season 19 Live Shows to feature more twists
The two-hour episode concluded with a stunning statement from presenter Terry Crews that would alter the course of this year's live events. It also marked the end of the Season 19 tryouts.
"For the first time ever in America’s Got Talent history, the Golden Buzzer is about to go live," Terry said. "One more from each judge will send acts straight to the finals. This summer, anything can happen."
As stated differently, at the return of 'AGT' on August 13, every one of the four judges will possess an additional Golden Buzzer, endowing them with the authority to advance an act directly to the finale, irrespective of the viewers' verdict.
'AGT' Season 19 judges given more than 1 Golden Buzzer
Although Terry still only had one buzzer, the judges this time around had two buzzers each during the auditions, which allowed them to choose nine performers to advance straight to the live shows.
