Ellen DeGeneres has done a good job showcasing young talent on her show, and those spots have been successful. It's very smart of her to turn the concept into its own show. Steve Harvey (who is also an executive producer) is the right guy to host this show, because he is quick-witted and he provides a comedic bridge between the kids and the audience.

These kids are either very talented or they have a viral internet presence--or both. First Steve sets them down and talks with them, invoking the "Kids Say the Darnedest Things" vibe that Art Linkletter pioneered decades ago on "The Linkletter Show" aka "House Party". Young children can be relied upon to provide unfiltered, quirky interviews that are lovable and hilarious.

Then the kids get to display their talents, which can range from classical piano to auctioneering. From kung fu to dancing. One can only hope that the show keeps up the level of talent displayed in the first three episodes. One four-year-old pianist appears to have what it takes to make his mark in later years. A singer from Croatia, at age 13, could be destined for Broadway.

The show is fun to watch, and both parts of the show work well.

I just love this show and watch with my grandson every week. So far all the kids have been awesome and do a great job in their perspective talent. I only have two peeves (hence the 8 votes)

1, Steve Harvey needs to cut out the innuendo. This is a family show and when he starts trying to hook up little boys and girls with each other, then it's going too far. They are children, leave their innocence alone.

2, Don't make this about race. The young girl who "inspired" us with her poem should not have been on there. If it had been the other way around it would not have been allowed. And of course she knew it by heart because it was drummed into her.

I feel Melissa brings a genuine, caring compassionate feeling to the show. Many comments are suggestive that it's not as good or as funny now as in the past. I don't think every situation involving these children and their skills/talent needs to be turned into a comedy act like the previous seasons. I feel Melissa relates very well to the children and I appreciate the passion Melissa brings to the show! I'm a fan and like it much better!!!

It is an Amazing show from Steve Harvey, this is the first time I am watching Steve Harvey show's now I have started watching his other shows as well.

Kids are stupendous, fabulous, great talent and very funny. You forget everything else when you are watching this show. Lovely kids, another point which attracted me to this show was kids come all over the globe.

Thanks, Harvey please do not stop this show.

This show is absolutely amazing and adorable. Steve is so great with these kids and does NOT take any of the credit for their talent whatsoever. He is simply showcasing the talents of some of the amazing kids that make up our world! A total break from the regular TV shows and me and my boyfriend absolutely LOVE this show. The negative reviews honestly just sound like haters that don't like seeing Steve everywhere! Give him credit for his tremendous energy because it takes a lot of passion to be on so many shows weekly!! Go Steve!! And thank you for your hardwork and continuous efforts to make television enjoyable again

Oh, goody! An America's Got Talent for kids! I was pretty excited for the show to start. I had great hopes for this show; who doesn't like cute kids doing talented things?

I wasn't disappointed with the kids. They were great. It was Steve Harvey who disappointed. I like him in very small doses; he can be a very funny man. Unfortunately, we're getting him in very large doses. Instead of being funny, he's annoying. He talks and mugs and talks and mugs and then when it really begins to wear thin, he starts talking and mugging again. If I wanted to see Steve Harvey being Steve Harvey, I would have watched The Steve Harvey Show. After all, this show is called "Little Big Shots", not "Big Big Mouth".

If this was going to be another Steve Harvey show, then why didn't they just name this "The ANOTHER STEVE HARVEY SHOW Show".

More cute kids, please....less Steve Harvey.

Now in its second season, 'Little Big Shots' is a wonderful variety show the entire family can enjoy. Hosted by the hilarious and incredibly charming Steve Harvey, he presents children from all over the world who possess amazing talents ~ everything from singing, to preaching, to knowing EVERY fact about an American President.

Frequently having children on the program from other parts of the world ~ like China, Japan, and Germany, the show provides an interpreter so the kids will be able to communicate with Harvey and the studio audience. I will admit, however, that sometimes I use my 'closed caption' feature when these young folks are just speaking English, as those little voices might be hard to decipher!

If you're old enough to remember, this show is reminiscent of Art Linkletter's 'Kids Say the Darndest Things', or that same show reprised in the mid 90's by Bill Cosby. But how refreshing to have a wholesome family show that the entire family can watch without reservation ~ which explains why it debuted as the #1 show last season.

Simply said, the kids are all incredibly talented ~ but it's Harvey's interaction with them that makes this show so entertaining every week!!!

Please bring back Harvey ... show just doesn't work with Melissa.

I have watched every episode of this show and every week it has won my heart. The talent is so spectacular and gives inspiration to kids around the world. Steve Harvey has such a way with the kids and can make every single child smile and be comfortable on stage. I love that this is not a voting competition. Each child is already a winner just being on the show. And it's hilarious when Steve tries to do what the kids are talented in. I have nothing bad to say about this show. Families can watch this show without any unwanted surprises you don't want your kids to see. It's my favorite show and I highly recommend it to everyone that loves kids and amazing talent.

Watched this at least expecting something decent because I'm a Steve fan and a fan on shows like KSTDT. However you get kids who really aren't that talented who barely even talk and just sound scared to be there and otherwise I barely see a difference between this and the Steve show. I don't usually review so excuse my non pro rating, but I had to say something because I could barely sit through an episode of this painful show and it's getting noms and 10 ratings?

My husband and I have been delighted with these shows so far. They do seem like they are a take-off from America's got talent, etc., but why not? There are so many kids out there that should be seen! I was amazed at their talent as well as their personalities! We really liked Steve Harvey; he was like the "white Art Linkletter" to me; he had a way with the kids that seemed to help them connect with him. I enjoyed his funny faces and the way his eyes expressed so well whatever he was not able to say in words. I liked the chemistry he had with the kids, although I must admit that he sometimes made the show about himself a little, but not enough to really detract from the kids. I suppose that if I was watching him on all of his shows, as the other reviewer mentioned, I would feel that I'd had enough of him, but I haven't, so I wish that there could be many more episodes.

My husband and I cannot wait each Monday to watch this show on DVR from Sunday's airing. I am beyond impressed with the producers, directors, host, and guests of this show! I think it's great that children from all around the world are incorporated into the show. The incredible talents shown by the children is inspiring and nonetheless entertaining. Steve Harvey is a terrific host, as always. Just a quick review to express my appreciation for this show!

Steve Harvey is on fire. He saved the syndicated version of Family Feud from cancellation when he took over as host in 2010 and also hosts ABC'S summer hit Celebrity Family Family. He's also the host of his successful morning radio show, a daytime talk show, the Miss Universe Pageant and now NBC's showcase for talented youngsters Little Big Shots.

Airing Sunday nights on NBC, it is a refreshing and entertaining alternative to the investigative reporting on CBS'S 60 Minutes and the network's drama NCIS-Los Angeles. The kids are the stars of the show as they perform for Harvey and the audience. But it's Harvey who makes the show a hit. He doesn't talk down to the kids and brings plenty of humor like Family Feud to the proceedings.

There have been a number of young singers and dancers as well as a youngster who have an encyclopedic knowledge of US presidents. If you have never seen Little Big Shots, watch it and you'll see why it's a big hit.

Isn't this Steve Harvey on at least two other TV shows already? There is nothing charming or funny about him. His arrogance and pomposity is sickening. Surely they could find a better host for this talent show than him.

Harvey is as overexposed now as Bill Cosby was in the 1980s. He has a 4 hour daily radio show. He hosts a horrible daily TV show. He also hosts Family Feud. That's 15 shows a week totaling 27.5 hours. And now he's doing this new talent show bringing the total to 28.5 hours of air time every week. That is Steve Harvey overload. Nobody is that good.

IMO - he is an obnoxious, biased host, he has already ruined Family Feud. His talk show is as unwatchable as The View, The Talk, Maury, Jerry Springer or Bill Cunningham.

With a net worth of $100 million, it's time to give others a chance.

I have been wanting for the return of this show I am a huge fan of Steve Harvey and the kids are very interesting to see as well it's quite a lot of a treat to watch a show with little or no cursing and yelling lots of laughs and just a all around good time yes some may say that the show is childish and boring and just not right but those people are no fun and need to be more open to the idea of shows like this for the ENTIRE FAMILY yes I said ENTIRE FAMILY just some very mild language from Harvey but it is not often and the kids are amazing it is truly a great time with the family and friends not for someone who doesn't enjoy having a good time but that is about it second season starts tonight at 8 please watch this u will be amazed by how much fun it is to watch

When I saw that they were bringing this show back without Harvey, I thought it might actually get good. Sadly, it got ten times worse. While this new broad is as equally untalented and unfunny as Harvey, she is better at talking to the kids. The bad thing is that instead of featuring kids that have an actual talent, now they have kids who like to vacuum or know the state capitals. They should call this show Little Bores.

The new Little big shots is terrible. She hugs the show from the kids. Bring back Steve Havey

Show isn't the same without Steve Harvey. Melissa is, "meh"...she just doesn't relate to and connect with the kids as well as Steve did. I continue to watch only out of habit, not because I like it so much. Noting against McCarthy, but please bring back Steve!!!

I thought that the show was cute and entertaining with Steve Harvey, in large part because of the way that he played off the kids. Melissa McCarthy seems uncomfortable and awkward around the kids. I don't think interacting with kids is her thing.
