Ryan Seacrest Developing Music Show for NBC
American Idol host Ryan Seacrest is in talks with NBC to create a new music-themed program that he promises will not directly compete with the massively popular Fox singing competition. The show, which is still being developed on a conceptual level, is unlikely to be a traditional singing competition, especially since NBC already has the new singing competition show The Voice. The show may also not include Seacrest on camera, as his Idol contract prohibits him from appearing on a rival network until next year.
