One has to wonder about the logistics of Thursday’s episode of The Kelly Clarkson Show, which boasts a guest list so packed with recognizable names it feels more like a red carpet than a daytime talk show. Eva Longoria, Isabella Rossellini, and Adam Scott are all scheduled to appear, a formidable trio that could easily carry an entire episode on their own. How the show will divide the time between them should be interesting to see, but it certainly makes for a strong promotional hook.
The show has also booked Hugh Grant, Jason Isaacs, and Jeffrey Wright. It’s an almost comical amount of talent for a single hour of television.
Amidst all the celebrity interviews, the show will also take a moment to support the John R. Elliott HERO Campaign, an organization dedicated to preventing drunk driving. It’s a serious note in an otherwise star-studded hour, grounding the episode with a message of public service. The show will begin with a Kellyoke Encore performance of Extreme’s “More Than Words,” a choice that feels fittingly mellow for an hour that will be bursting with conversation.
The Kelly Clarkson Show airs weekdays in syndication. Check local listings for time and channel.
