Format

Filmed in New York City, The Jenny McCarthy Show features different celebrity guests along with trivia, games and discussion about recent pop culture news. Originally, Michelle Buteau from VH1's Best Week Ever delivered pop culture news via Skype, but she eventually joined as a co-host and appeared with guests in the studio. From the start, there was to be a different guest DJ and bartender but that plan has also seemingly fallen through.^[1][6][7][8]
