    It's great to see Ellen as new judge in the show. Like she said that no one trained her to be a judge. She just needs to do it her way. She seems like a good judge and say the right things. It was funny when there were only four people lining up and she kept telling them to move forward, then move backward, and move forward again, and the move a little to the left. This and that, and they actually all went to the next round. I guess she really has humor whatever she does.
    I am waiting to see what else she will say.moreless
