O'Donnell is returning to television, but this time she'll be behind the camera. She partnered up with MTV to launch a
sketch comedy show on MTV's new network, Logo. The channel targets gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender viewers.
O'Donnell's sketch show is going to be a lot like Saturday Night Live, featuring up-and-coming comedians,
political and pop culture satire, and even some musical numbers. The show will also include celebrity guests who are
"friends of the LGBT community." Rosie is serving as the show's executive producer, and she will pair with
writers from The Rosie O'Donnell Show, which aired from 1996-2002. When Logo TV Squad Hot Topics
