"After we saw Garth and Trisha crash Facebook, we reached out to them about bringing this Studio G to a larger audience in a safe and exciting way," said Jack Sussman, CBS' Executive Vice President, Specials, Music and Live Events. "With Garth and Trisha coupled with the power of broadcast television, anything can happen, making this an event not to be missed."
Garth & Trisha Live! will be filmed without a live studio audience. The primetime special will involve a minimal crew practicing social distancing and will be filmed with extensive safety precautions in place.
