Matt Roush says...
The last new episode of the calendar year is typically a Christmas treat, and for this year’s show, they’ve pulled out the stops. Ariana Grande, one of the most reliably funny and versatile guests, returns to host for the third time, riding high on the box-office success of Wicked: For Good. And she’ll be introducing a living legend when Cher returns to the Studio 8H stage as musical guest for the first time since 1987. May the TV gods put these divas in a duet.
