Netflix is bringing back Star Search as a live show
Netflix is adding an important category to its live offerings: talent competition. The streamer announced that it will be reviving Star Search, the classic American Idol and America’s Got Talent precursor that has been off the air since 1995. The modern iteration will air live twice a week on Netflix, and viewers will be able to vote on contestants across four categories: music, dance, variety / comedy, and kids.
A lot of details are still to be announced, including who the host and judges will be and when the new Star Search will start streaming. But Netflix has tapped longtime America’s Got Talent showrunner Jason Raff to lead the project.
