May 6, 2019 by Marisa Roffman
NBC has picked up WHO DO YOU THINK YOU ARE?—again.
The series—from executive producers Lisa Kudrow, Dan Bucatinsky and Ancestry—first aired on the network from 2010-2012, before shifting over to TLC for seasons 4-11. The last season of WDYTYA concluded in December 2018.
“Dan and I could not possibly be happier to be back at NBC where we get to work with Paul Telegdy, George Cheeks and Meredith Ahr,” said Kudrow in a statement. “It honestly feels like we’re back home.”
“Now, more than ever, people are looking to connect with their ancestry to uncover a deeper understanding of who they are,” said Meredith Ahr, President, Alternative and Reality Group, NBC Entertainment. “We’re excited to once again travel around the world with some of our favorite celebrities as they get answers and surprises about family members who came before them.”
“Lisa Kudrow and Dan Bucatinsky, along with our team at Shed Media, have made WHO DO YOU THINK YOU ARE? not only a great television show but a genre-defining brand. We are thrilled to come back home to NBC. It couldn’t be a more perfect fit,” said Mike Darnell, President, Warner Bros. Unscripted and Alternative Television.
Per NBC, “Each week a different celebrity will go on a poignant search to trace their family tree with the help of historians and experts, unlocking past mysteries and unbelievable real-life stories across the world and through time.”
