Smash's ship might be sinking fast, but no matter what night the show airs Bernadette Peters will ALWAYS be a star!

The Broadway legend will making a smashing return to the show on this week's The Parents.

This time Bernadette could be staying on the show for longer than one episode at a time after being offered a role in the fictional play, Bombshell.

Maybe she is the star power the TV show needs???!

Because Katharine McPhee, Anjelica Huston, Jennifer Hudson, and Debra Messing don't appear to be enough.

Regardless, we'll always welcome a performance from this bright-eyed bubbly icon!!!!

Ch-ch-check out the sneak peek (above)!

Huzzah!!

Broadway icon Bernadette Peters is returning to NBC's Smash in her role as Ivy Lynn (Megan Hilty's) famous mother!

We saw in season one how Bernadette's matriarchal character pushed Ivy to be the best, or fade into nothing, and viewing their strained relationship shed light on WHY Ivy can be so competitive and cut throat, yet extremely insecure.

SO souped for Smash's totally revamped season two and ALL the new cast additions! We can't wait to see Jennifer Hudson, Jeremy Jordan, Nikki Blonsky, and Sean Hayes (among others) in all their broadway meets small screen glory!

Well, we think it's safe to say that three of these could sweep this entire year's ceremony!

The 2012 Tony Awards Nominations were announced this morning by Kristin Chenoweth and Jim Parsons, and on top of Bernadette Peters and Hugh Jackman receiving honorary awards - as we reported yesterday - it's clear that there are three big frontrunners this year, as the musical Once managed to garner 11 nods, with Nice Work If You Can Get It and The Gershwins’ Porgy and Bess following close behind with 10 each!

Holy shiz! That is seriously impressive!

We can't wait to see how they do when the ceremony airs on June 10th! How about U?!

Ch-ch-check out the full list of nominations…AFTER THE JUMP!
