Now, according to McCarthy, the network will build out two more regular spinoff programs: one in the morning and one for late-night television, while the afternoon show continues after its hiatus.

The late-night show, which has been airing twice a week, will now move to four nights, targeting an older age group than the afternoon show. As for the new morning show, according to Billboard, it will be a “pure one-hour music block that’ll be almost a visualization of your playlist, a well as performances and interviews,” for all ages.

“Imagine the ‘Today Show’,” he said of the new project, “but through a music filter.”
