TV: The Maya Rudolph Show to Debut in May

After a long-delayed debut, The Maya Rudolph Show finally has a premiere date: Monday, May 19 at 10 PM.

Except here’s the catch: it’s yet unclear whether Rudolph’s variety show will be a one-time special or an ongoing series. NBC will presumably base that decision on that first episode’s ratings.

Here’s what we do know: There will be a ton of guest stars. Andy Samberg, Kristen Bell, Fred Armisen, Chris Parnell, Craig Robinson, and Sean Hayes are scheduled to appear, as is musical guest Janelle Monae and bandleader Raphael Saadiq.

Rudolph was last seen guest-starring on Portlandia and will appear in P.T. Anderson’s Inherent Vice in December.
