Rosie Heads To Primetime!
Filed under: TV News > Rosie O'Donnell
Finally, some television programming that has nothing to do with "reality TV."
Set to make a return to the talk show world is none other that Rosie O'Donnell.
In a long rumored move, O'Donnell will be joining NBC to air Rosie's Variety Show, part talk, part comedy, part music.
An hourlong special will air live the night before Thanksgiving, on November 26.
If the ratings are good, there's a possibility the network might order a full series.
O'Donnell will be executive producer, along with David Friedman from Last Call With Carson Daly.
NBC will even beat out the Osbourne family by premiering the show before Thanksgiving. The Osbournes are said to have a variety show coming up on FOX sometime this winter or spring.
But what makes Rosie's show stand out from the rest is the fact that her show will be live.
NBC vp alternative Craig Plestis says, "This will reinvent the idea of what a variety show is for 2008. There's very few performers willing to put themselves out there live. It makes it more TiVo-proof, and it's something none of the cable networks can do."
We can't wait to watch.
Will U be watching?




i'd rather masterbate with broken glass than to watch this show.

Rosie O'Donnell was always entertaining,so I will give
her show a chance.
I think she'll blow Ellen DeGeneres out of the water!
I like Ellen's show,but I am sick of watching it.
I would only watch if I was tasered and duct taped to a chair.
Yes, I will watch to give it a chance. Live TV should be interesting .. tired of all the scripted "reality" shows.

Re: wanna milk me?? – hey plus she's offensive….that's a plus
Yay. Very happy to see Rosie back on TV!
Yes! I love Rosie and it will be awesomely entertaining to watch various acts with celebrities I know.
.
It will also be great to discover talents I haven't seen for their own merit, not as part of yet another competition/reality show.
REFRESH

yuck
yuck
I am so happy for Rosie. I love her. Congratulations. I can't wait to see the show.
Love you, Rosie! I'll be watchin'!
Past her prime.
what lunatic would give this bitch another show even if its only for a night? no one wants to hear her blood sucking liberal 'everyone hates the gays, troops, bush, war wah wah wah' mouth spew any more garbage than she already has.
.
Re: krazihottkelli/bitchygrl – And hey Obama, besides the Rev. Wright and the convicted felon you helped get your house through, how about your connection to Weather Underground founders Ayers & Dohrn?? Those 2 who thought they didn't do a thorough enuf job bombing the Capitol! To say your decision making is flawed, O, is an understatement. I'm not voting in Nov. The choices stink!
YAYAAYAYAYAYAYA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I LOVE ROSIE AND NOW I HOPE EVERYONE CAN SEE WHAT A BITCH ELIZABETH WAS TO HER ON THE VIEW BECAUSE SHE CONTINUES TO THROW HER NONSENSE AROUND DAY AFTER DAY AND MOST OF THE TIME WHOOPI LOOKS LIKE SHE JUST WANTS TO BEAT HER ASS!!
Absolutely love Rosie! Thank God she will be back on TV, a breathe of fresh air!
God she is disgusting. She is far from entertaining…I'm not sure why she is a celeb….I guess her big annoying mouth got her enough attention.
has been puke
No. We've seen enough. She seems so pissed off and annoyed by anyone who doesn't see things her way. It's depressing.
Oh crap, here we go again.
Rosie O'Donnell is a wonderful entertainer. Her old show was an Emmy Award winner for a good reason. People love Rosie and she will bring in the ratings for sure. Not only that but I'm sure her show is just want television needs right now. Something on the lines of the old Carol Burnette show.
I love the fact that the show will be live! Good luck Ro! TRIPLE LOVE YOU!! xxxx
Re: Tinalouise – I agree with you Tina Louise! Well said. I think Lizzy is going to leave The View and head on over to Faux News.
Re: annie2h – I agree Annie, Rosie is pure Sunshine!!
LEZLO AND SAM-MAN are her only guests on a set consisting of a tarp and Wesson oil.
Good god…..
*
Leave it to NBC, Zucker and Immelt…good choice*sigh*
HELL YES!!! love ROSIE!
HELLLLLLL TO THE MUTHA-FUCKING YEAAAAAAH!!!!!!!!!!
ROSIE IS THE SHIT.
FUCK OFF HATERS.
SHE'S DONE MORE FOR BROADWAY THAN ANY OTHER CELEB OUT THERE.
GO RO!!!!!
NY LOVES U!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Oh fudge.
Clearly there is no god…
I won't watch this show but I won't be able to escape the daily chatter it will generate.
Damn her.
This fat ugly bitch gets another friggin' TV show? When will her fat annoying ass just go away for good
Re: Candi Apples – The only thing rosey blows over ellen is chunks…
When will this fat obnoxious cow disappear??????????????? Her so called 'new show' will be another failure just as she is.
Re: MaNHaTTaNiTeRBiTeR – why dont you fuck off fat pig lover
I wouldn't watch this Commy Cunt for all the Euros in the world! YUK! the show will fail like everything else she does, she's a pathetic has been trying to hang on to the limelight
Re: Tinalouise – right! God forbid anyone dare question the liberal orthodoxy of the old broads on The View, can't have that!!!! God forbid! Leftists hate to be challenge
I wouldn't watch this if someone had a gun to my head. Rosie O'Fat is a loud-mouthed idiot.
ABSOLUTLY! I love Rosie….
No. SO over her and her numerous ego-filled comebacks…

LOOK AT HER FAT SAUSAGE FINGERS. BET KELLY LIKES THEM. EH
I probably won't watch, except when The Soup makes fun of it, but I love Rosie, and I hope she's happy/healthy.
Re: alexlala – that icon is just wrong!!
Eww why does do tiic keep bringing her back, let her go into the light. I really have no desire to see her on any thing!!!
I love Rosie! I'll watch if I remember!
I love Rosie, and can't wait to watch her. If people stop judging her for her weight and listen to what she is saying she's hilarious. Lovez it.
I think it's great. If anyone can do the variety show format, it's her. Good luck, Rosie!
I will not be watching the piece of crap she puts on. I despise that woman. She likes to point the finger at everybody and say they discriminate against gays. Whatever. Just go away and never come back Rosie.
Nah, boring old has been hag
OMG Can't wait!!
She's damaged her image too much by being controversial. Sadly, America will not support this new show. I'll give it a try though. I hope it's good.
I love Rosie — I am happy she is coming back to tv.
She is pretty smart on what is happening in the world…and she has guts to go live
She is funny
And she is a good mother - wish she would have been my mom!
hell to the NO
GAG
I'd rather watch a monkey humping a watermelon than this pig!
