But when the season 1 finale of the series revealed the Ramadhani Brothers (who first participated in season 18 and came back to be members of judge Howie Mandel‘s team) were the victors, it only made viewers more curious about whether a new installment of the original series was in the works.

When speaking with People for the first look, judge Simon Cowell noted that he and judges Heidi Klum, Howie Mandel and Sofía Vergara will each have two Golden Buzzers in the upcoming season, while host Terry Crews will keep his one. As a reminder, the Golden Buzzer sends an act right to the live shows, without requiring a majority vote from the panel.
“In the first two days we’ve used more Golden Buzzers than we’ve ever used — that’s got to be a good sign!” Simon told the outlet after the first week of auditions in Pasadena, California.
