NBC Orders Ellen DeGeneres-Steve Harvey Produced LITTLE BIG SHOTS

NBC is staying in business with Ellen DeGeneres, following the cancellation of ONE BIG HAPPY.

The network has ordered LITTLE BIG SHOTS from DeGeneres and Steve Harvey, a new variety series that highlights talented kids. (Harvey is set to host.)

Here’s what NBC has to say about the new show…

“Two of the biggest names in comedy, Ellen DeGeneres and Steve Harvey, have teamed up to showcase some of the smallest talent in “Little Big Shots” (working title), a new comedy/variety series for NBC featuring the world’s most talented and extraordinary kids. The network has ordered eight hour-long episodes of the show, hosted by Harvey, from Warner Horizon Television.

In “Little Big Shots,” Harvey will showcase young musicians, singers, dancers and every form of wunderkind in the country, and go toe to toe with them in conversations and interviews, with hilarious results.

From pint-size breakdancers to 5-year-old piano virtuosos, these gifted performers will awe the nation with their talents, slay us with their cuteness and wow us with their accomplishments. These phenomenal kids show us once and for all that talent is born, not made.

Executive produced by DeGeneres, Harvey, Jeff Kleeman and Gerald Washington, “Little Big Shots” is produced by Warner Horizon Television, East 112th Street Productions and A Very Good Production.”
