The former Saturday Night Live "Weekend Update" anchor-turned-podcast host announced the news that he previously hinted about on Twitter, posting his text exchange confirming the deal with Netflix chief content officer Ted Sarandos. Letterman will serve as executive producer, or "location scout" on the talk show, which will feature Macdonald, sidekick Adam Eget and a celebrity guest, featuring “great and unexpected conversation, jokes, and a behind-the-scenes look at Norm’s world." Netflix has ordered 10 episodes to premiere later this year or early next year.
