“I wanted to do something that really felt like a party in the middle of the day,” Harry told Access Hollywood during the NBC portion of the recent Television Critics Association Summer Tour, of the set-up of his show. “It’s a show that’s going to have a lot of spontaneity, music, comedy – a lot of stuff that parties have. In a way it feels like a nighttime show, it just happens to be during the day.”
“Harry” is a nationally syndicated entertainment show from NBCUniversal.
