NBC is premiering this fall a new live variety show with the Broadway renaissance man,\u00a0Neil Patrick Harris, as the host. Tuesday, September 15th marks the live one-hour event where audiences will watch and wait as they expect the unexpected, as the shows\u2019 tagline reinforces that \u201canything can happen, and it can happen to you.\u201d While we are not exactly sure what\u00a0we are in for it is bound to be lots of comedy and music with the stereotypical game-show elements. As one promotional video delves, turns out lots of pranks as well, that seems oddly reminiscent of America\u2019s Funniest Videos<\/em>. The show itself is based on the\u00a0popular British show \u201d Ant & Dec\u2019s Saturday Night Takeaway,\u201d where\u00a0comedy duo Anthony McPartlin and Declan Donnelly feature a number of large-scale stunts and comedy sketches,with various\u00a0pranks and practical jokes that are performed on members of the studio audience, home viewers and even celebrities. NBC may be testing their luck with this slightly risky show, yet are presumably banking on the \u201crazzle dazzle\u201d of five time Emmy awarded and Tony awarded\u00a0<\/span><\/span>Neil Patrick Harris as the perfect star to conduct stunts and skits with sparkle for this unique live show unlike anything else on American television. Harris is anything but a stranger to live television as he has hosted the Tony\u2019s, the Emmy\u2019s, and even this years own Academy Awards. I can hardly wait to tune in at 10pm for the live event and to see if it really will be the Best Time Ever.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
