It's not because he is American, after all they've been putting up with "British" judging on their shows, or because he drinks (I hadn't realised or I'd forgotten about it), I just didn't like his judging on the shows that I had caught on America's Got Talent. I also just find him a bit smarmy.

The Hoff as he is known for some unknown reason seems to have cult status.....?Not sure why though........

Didn`t think he was a particularly good actor, and not sure how great he will be at spotting talent, but then prehaps the same could be said for Piers Morgan?

I only ever watch the finals week of BGT anyway........and Simon Cowell will be back for that I believe....don`t know why he didn`t get Sharon Osbourne instead.

I know the name but not sure I know who he is. But if he has the reputation of being drunk what sort of example would that be to young people who watch the show. Of whom there are a lot. What are they thinking of if he has already been sacked from the American version. Is SC definitely giving up? I think it will fail without him, I am not a great fan but he made the show and it will be odd without him in my opinion.

Oh I hadn't thought about the alcohol problems, I was thinking of his talents as a judge. I've never been that keen on him I'm sorry to say.
