Don’t Miss Richard Goodall Shine in America’s Got Talent Semifinals on Sept. 11: Your Ultimate Guide to Watch and Vote!

Richard Goodall is about to make his return to the America’s Got Talent stage.

The janitor from Terre Haute, Indiana, has won hearts across the country, and he’s hoping to win the NBC reality competition show’s top prize later this month.

For his audition episode in May, Goodall performed a cover of Journey’s “Don’t Stop Believin’” that wowed the audience and convinced judge Heidi Klum to give him a Golden Buzzer, automatically advancing him to the live quarterfinals. In August, he sailed through the quarterfinals with a performance of Michael Bolton’s “How Am I Supposed to Live Without You,” earning enough fan votes to advance to the semifinals, which start Wednesday.

When is the next episode of America’s Got Talent?

Although the show typically airs at 8 p.m. Tuesdays, the semifinals will begin at 8 p.m. Sept. 11 because of Tuesday night’s presidential debate. The live results show will air Thursday night at 8 p.m.

These 12 acts have advanced to Wednesday’s semifinal round:

How do the AGT live shows work?

Now that the four weeks of quarterfinals are over, the semifinals will determine who goes to the final two shows. During the semifinals, 12 acts will compete for six spots, with the finalists to be determined by fan votes.
