NBC is to launch Jimmy Fallon’s comedy variety series That’s My Jam after this summer’s Olympic Games.

The network is gearing up for the launch, which is based on the celebrity-fueled musical segments from The Tonight Show, after the Tokyo Olympics, which runs from July 24 to August 9.

NBC Entertainment Chairman Paul Telegdy revealed the scheduling during his exec session at the Winter TCA press tour. “If you love music, you love dance and you love pop culture… [Jimmy’s] turned it into a primetime spectacular for him and some of his closest friends, and so we’re really, really excited.”

It marks Fallon’s first venture into primetime. Based on the Wheel of Musical Impressions segment from The Tonight Show, it was brought to Universal Television Alternative Studio by Fallon, longtime Tonight Show producer Jim Juvonen and writer Josh Knapp.

Telegdy was optimistic that it would succeed but admitted that the network had turned down other Fallon-related spin-offs in the past, including Lip Sync Battle, which initially aired as a segment on the late-night talkshow and recently aired its fifth season on Paramount Network.

The ten-part series, which will feature a carousel of classic and new music-based games, features a new group of celebrities each week.

The series was originally ordered in May with Fallon saying that he “loves playing these games on the show, and it’ll be fun to see it taken to the next level”.

‘The Voice’ powerhouse coaches go head to head singing songs from Whitney Houston, Celine Dion, Britney Spears, Shania Twain and Cher

Ariana Grande and Kelly Clarkson, two coaches on The Voice this season, enter a battle round of their own as guests on the special preview of Jimmy Fallon’s That’s My Jam, an hour-long music and comedy variety game show premiering on January 3rd on NBC.

The pair is selected to go head-to-head in a mixtape medley showdown. Fallon spins the wheel of genres and categories from which the singers are tasked with performing, which fittingly lands on pop divas.

Grande kicks off with a choreographed-from-memory run of Britney Spears’ “Oops!… I Did It Again” while Clarkson follows after with “Any Man of Mine” from the country-twanged singer Shania Twain. The rest of their faceoff set features songs from Whitney Houston, Celine Dion and Cher.

By the end, Clarkson and John Legend are crowned the winners of the night while their opposing team, Grande and Blake Shelton, slot into second place.

But on The Voice, it’s still every man and woman for themselves as the singing competition continues its live rounds. Grande is the latest addition to the team of coaches, while the other three have been together for six seasons.

“We’ve never had a coach like her,” Clarkson told Fallon of Grande earlier this year. “In all my seasons, I’ve never heard a coach talk about vocal health as much. And I’m like, ‘I guess we should have mentioned that.’ We are all vocalists. Like, no one’s ever really mentioned it, and she’s really into it, so it’s cool. And everybody vibes so well.”

HOW/WHEN & WHERE TO WATCH: Streaming on Hulu

Hot on the heels of her arrest playing out on season 2 of the Real Housewives of Salt Lake City, this documentary special does a deep dive on Jen Shah and unpacks the bombshell allegations against the businesswoman and marketing exec. Legally speaking, she’s charged with conspiracy to commit wire fraud and conspiracy to commit money laundering — but to put it more plainly, she’s accused of stealing money from the elderly as part of a long-running telemarketing scheme. What you learn here may have you saying «holy shah-t» and second-guessing everything you thought you knew about one of the Housewives franchises’ newest stars. —Gerrad Hall

NBC Orders Jimmy Fallon’s ‘That’s My Jam’ Music & Variety Game Show Inspired By ‘Tonight Show’ Segments

NBC has given a 10-episode series order to That’s My Jam, an unscripted music and variety game show inspired by Jimmy Fallon’s viral hit Tonight Show segments “Wheel of Musical Impressions.”

“We love playing these games on the show, and it’ll be fun to see it taken to the next level,” Fallon said.

The format was brought to Universal Television Alternative Studio by Fallon, longtime Tonight Show producer Jim Juvonen and writer Josh Knapp. Jeff Apploff will serve as showrunner.

“Jimmy reinvented the late-night genre with his one-of-a-kind celebrity game segments that show our favorite stars at their most clever, creative and relaxed,” said Meredith Ahr, President of the Alternative and Reality Group at NBC Entertainment. “We’re thrilled to bring viewers a new set of games and create a weekly party that is just as much fun to watch as it is to play along.”

From “Wheel of Musical Impressions” and “Musical Genre Challenge” to “History of Rap,” Fallon’s musical games, sketches and challenges have made a mark on late-night TV, drawing moer than 20 million YouTube subscribers.

That’s My Jam mirrors NBC/Warner Bros.’ Ellen’s Game of Games, which also is inspired by recurring segments on Ellen DeGeneres’ daytime talk show, featuring classic and new games.

NBC previously passed on a reality series based on another popular Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon segment, Lip Sync Battle. The project eventually landed at Spike (now Paramount Network), where it has been a hit, currently airing its fifth season.

Broadcast late-night shows increasingly are becoming an incubator for successful unscripted and scripted series. CBS’ The Late Late Show with James Corden has spawned Carpool Karaoke on Apple and Drop the Mic on TBS and now TNT.

Showtime’s animated series Our Cartoon President was based on a recurring segment on CBS’ Late Show with Stephen Colbert.
