Follows the two-hour season finale of America’s Got Talent and will move to begin NBC Wednesday night as of next week and be followed by Law & Order: Special Victims Unit and Chicago PD. Given how last season ended, I wondered how they were going to get things back together and I think they do a good job of doing so. Will you be watching again this season?
