The broadcast network has given the one-hour special a prime slot after the 'America's Got Talent' finale on Sept. 18.
Much like the show itself, the special will feature sketches, games, interviews and audience participation. Guests, including a music guest, will be announced at a later date.
NBC revealed in March that it had tapped Singh, a comedian who has nearly 15 million subscribers on YouTube, to host a late-night show that would replaceA Little Late a 96-episode first-season order. New episodes will air Monday through Thursday and a rerun of the show will air on Fridays. Singh plans to bring her brand of honest, thought-provoking comedy to the show, in addition to her penchant for sketch comedy and music video parodies. Already, the show has attracted interest from brands including Starbucks, which has signed on as the official launch partner, and mobile app PicsArt.
"This show is not just going to be me doing what I do on YouTube and now putting it on NBC," Singh tells. "It's going to be a different skill set and a different method of storytelling. I want it to feel very relatable and personable but I don't think it's going to feel like YouTube."
