John Mayer coming to CBS?
At Wednesday’s TCA conference in Los Angeles, CBS Entertainment President Nina Tassler announced that the network is “pretty close to closing our deal” with the singer.
“It’ll be a music variety sketch show,” Tassler said. “It’s being developed now.”
Pressed for specifics, Tassler added, “We’re looking at a couple of things.
“One is it’s sort of a pilot. It could be for a series of specials,” she said. “It could be just for a series. We’re just going to shoot the pilot now and see what we have and make a decision after that.”
The announcement comes months after web rumors began that Mayer has signed on to host a weekly variety show for CBS.
