“I’m extremely excited to be creating this special as I have long been a big fan of variety, and we don’t see enough of it! I want to make a great show for families to gather around and watch together and I couldn’t be in better hands than with this team,” said Bargatze.
Taped at the iconic Grand Ole Opry on November 21, the holiday special will be anchored by Bargatze, who will serve as master of ceremonies, guiding audiences through a mix of stand-up comedy, pre-taped comedy shorts, sketches, and musical performances. The show will shine a spotlight on the heart and spirit of Nashville during the holiday season, highlighting family, fun, and feel-good moments that resonate with audiences of all ages. This marks Bargatze’s return to The Grand Ole Opry, where his journey in comedy began as an entry-level employee.
Bargatze will collaborate with “Saturday Night Live‘s” Mikey Day and co-head writer Streeter Seidell, who previously joined forces with Bargatze when he hosted “SNL” last season on the wildly popular “Washington’s Dream” sketch.
The variety special will be executive produced by Lorne Michaels, Nate Bargatze, Erin David, and Andrew Singer of Broadway Video, and Tim Sarkes & Alex Murray of Brillstein Entertainment.
*Paramount+ with SHOWTIME subscribers will have access to stream live via the live feed of their local CBS affiliate on the service, as well as on-demand. Paramount+ Essential subscribers will not have the option to stream live, but will have access to on-demand the day after the special airs.
