“America’s Got Talent” fans, mark your calendars for Monday, January 1, as that’s when Week 1 of a brand new spin-off series, titled “America’s Got Talent: Fantasy League,” debuts on NBC. This reality TV program puts the four judges — Simon Cowell, Howie Mandel, Heidi Klum and Mel B — in the driver’s seat as they each fill out their fantasy teams with 10 unique acts. The judges will then compete against each other throughout the season until only one act remains and wins the grand prize of $250,000.

The Week 1 lineup includes several “AGT” fan-faves, including Season 14 winner Kodi Lee and Season 11 finalist Tape Face. See all of their photos above. Here is the full cast list for the January 1 episode:

Terry Crews will serve as the host for the new show, just as he does for “America’s Got Talent.” Also note that the Golden Buzzer is back to send acts straight through to the finals, but with a “twist” in that each judge can press the button for their own act, OR to take an act from another judges’ team. And the studio audience will vote each week to determine who will advance to the semi-finals and final rounds.

Be sure to sound off down in the comments section about what you think of this first group of “AGT: Fantasy League” contestants.
