TBS Orders Pilot for a Rob Riggle Late Night Sports Talk Show
(via Deadline)
TBS seems to be doing well to have open arms for ex-Daily Show correspondents.
Potentially, Rob Riggle could be joining Jason Jones and Samantha Bee on TBS with his very own show that would take the sports angle in a weekly late night talk show.
Also, as another welcome change of pace, the show would take place in Las Vegas, which should provide a fun backdrop for plenty of remote segments.
There’s potential here as there is currently only one other show to really figure out the balance of late night, sports, and comedy: Garbage Time with Katie Nolan.
