How NBC Will Spend Our Summer Vacation: Getting Real
Whoever said the reality-TV craze was over obviously hasn't talked to the suits at NBC. This summer, the Peacock will be feathering its nest with three returning reality shows and yet another new one. First up is
America's Got Talent, which kicks off on May 29 with incoming ringleader
Jerry Springer (sans bodyguards... I assume). Next, the fifth cycle of
Last Comic Standing premieres June 13, with
Bill Bellamy as host. Frosh date-a-thon
Age of Love, fronted by
Mark Consuelos (aka Mr. Kelly Ripa), bows June 18. And last but not least,
The Biggest Loser hits the treadmills in late summer, with
Days of our Lives' minx
Alison Sweeney presiding over the weighting game.
