Back at the very end of August, it was announced that NBC's America's Got Talent was renewed for a fourth season. When I wrote about this renewal, I included a few ideas to revamp the series because even if AGT is one of the most popular summer shows, it doesn't mean we like everything about it!

Let's go down memory lane and remind ourselves of the first suggestion I wrote in that post:

• Change the host. Jerry Springer reads the teleprompter way too much. Also, his interactions with the contestants are sometimes painful to watch because Springer doesn't know what to tell them or how to act around them.

Could it be that the show's Powers That Be read my post? (Please don't burst my bubble here and let me think for a few seconds that I actually played a part in making my suggestion come true.) AOL announces today that Jerry Springer is leaving AGT!

According to the AOL article, Springer claims he is not returning as the host of the "greatest show in the world" (his words) due to other commitments such as his show and a stage role. Don't adjust your computer monitor, you read right: stage role. The story doesn't say what that gig entails. A revival of "Jerry Springer: The Opera," maybe?

It wouldn't surprise me if the show's people also played a part in Springer's decisions because I know I'm not the only blogger and viewer out there who was getting extremely tired of Jerry's hosting.

The network has yet to announce who'll replace Jerry as host. Who do you think would make the best host for the show? Could they even think of making the Hoff be the host of the show?
