USA network has found a star in Todd Chrisley and they are hoping to capitalize on a good thing. The Chrisley Knows Best star has been showcasing his antics for the world to see on the last few seasons of his reality show, but it seems that the patriarch of the religious southern family is about to break out of his reality roots and head over to the world of talk show hosting. That's right, the network is cashing in on the success of one of their most popular shows and taking it into the realm of late night.

According to TVLine, Chrisley has been given the opportunity to host his own late-night gig through Embassy Row, a production company. The studio has produced similar late night shows including Watch What Happens Live for Bravo and Talking Dead for AMC.

In a statement via Deadline, EVP of original programming at USA, Jackie de Crinis, explained how excited she was to give fans an even bigger dose of the Chrisley clan.

 

"Fans can't get enough of the Chrisleys, and we're excited to give viewers an even bigger dose of this entertaining, unpredictable and lovable family," de Crinis explained. "Giving Todd an opportunity to bring his unique voice and unfiltered personality to late night is an opportunity we didn't want to miss."

The network is hoping to capitalize on the same success that E! and Bravo have seen with hits like Keeping Up With the Kardashians and the Real Housewives franchises by making Chrisley their first reality show to launch a spinoff series.

The summer premiere of the third season of Chrisley Knows Best will debut on Tuesday, June 2 at 9 p.m. on USA.
