America's Got Talent fans have seen a lot of incredible acts over the years. But since there can only be one winner each season, many viewers have seen their favorite singers, magicians, dancers and more fall short of taking home the grand prize. Now, with the newest AGT spinoff, they might just get to see some of their favorite contestants back from the past for a second chance.

According to The Hollywood Reporter, NBC has ordered a spinoff of the hit competition show, titled America's Got Talent: All-Stars, which will feature previous contestants from the past 17 seasons of the long-running talent show. Executive producer Simon Cowell has seen just how much fans love the show and is expanding the franchise to celebrate the best of the best.

If you’re already excited about the new spinoff, here’s more information about what you can look forward to with AGT: All-Stars:
