NBC’s annual tradition, the Christmas in Rockefeller Center special, will feature a very familiar face this year: Zachary Levi will co-host with 30 Rock‘s Jane Krakowski. The one-hour program will air at 8/7c on Wednesday, December 2.
The special will also feature performances by Michael Buble, Aretha Franklin, Alicia Keys, Barry Manilow, The Roots, Shakira and the Radio City Rockettes. Krakowski, an excellent singer, will perform with The Roots.
The special will conclude with the lighting of the Christmas tree. But this year, NBC Universal and the Arbor Day Foundation will promote the planting of trees. Viewers can text NBCU for the cause, and the “Text for Your Tree” campaign will continue at arborday.org and greenisuniversal.com sites.

Now if we can only get Zach and Yvonne co-hosting SNL with musical guest Jeffster.
I think we will have to keep an eye on the talk shows, because as S3 approaches I expect to see more of Zach, Yvonne and other cast members on the talk show circuit.
