NBCGet those arms and dog barks ready because Arsenio Hall is back!
E! News confirms the Celebrity Apprentice winner will be returning to our TV screens next year. Hall has signed a deal for a late-night syndicated talk show with CBS Television Distribution.
"We're excited to welcome Arsenio back to the family and partnering on his new, late-night syndicated talk show," CTD President John Nogawski said in a statement.
"Arsenio had a substantial following with his previous late-night show, and that same 18-34 audience is now right in the middle of the late-night core audience of 35-54," the statement continued. "Years ago, he transcended time periods and attracted a cross-over audience while bringing a fresh perspective to late night. That same need in the market exists today as when we originally launched. We are looking forward to the same success with Arsenio's seasoned expertise and appeal in this genre."
"It's an amazing feeling to be going HOME to my old friends and colleagues and firing up our Night Thing," Hall said. "Let's get busy...AGAIN!"
Yeah, Arsenio's pretty excited. How excited, you ask?
"I am happier than a mouse running around the Kraft cheese factory," he tweeted to fellow Celebrity Apprentice finalist Clay Aiken.
