Agree. I love Tyra in other contexts, but she was often tongue-tied and stammering on AGT. Nick was so much fun to watch interacting with the performers.
He got fired because he was doing stand-up in some entirely other context like a comedy club, and he used the n-word.
The one judge I can’t stand is Heidi Klum. She is too dumb to be given a driver’s license. But she is so dumb as to be sort of funny.
