AGT: Fantasy League is a fun, short, and sweet twist
While the longer AGT season 19 is anticipated soon, AGT: Fantasy League is only eight episodes long with each episode lasting for 2 hours. It is divided into three rounds, namely, Auditions, Semi-Finals, and Finals.
The Audition round will have four episodes with 10 contestants every week, but out of those 10 contestants, only 5 will get to go to the semi-finals, with four contestants getting promoted based on audience votes and one with Golden Buzzer.
There are two episodes devoted to the semi-finals, where viewers will witness ten performances every show, of which only five will advance to the finals. In the final two episodes, ten contenders will square off against each other and the judges for the title. By the conclusion of the finals, superfan votes will determine the victor, and the victor and the judge whose team they support will be crowned.
In the last episode that came out on January 1, 2024, fans saw Mel B stealing Emily England from Simon Cowell's team and transporting her straight to the semi-finals. Kodi Lee, Kristy Sellars, Kseniya Simonova, Shadow Ace, and V. Unbeatable won by Superfan votes and became the first top 5 to reach the semi-finals.
