You can see it Thursday nights at 10pm ET. After sneaking in an early, unadvertised first episode back in January, the show&#8217;s ratings nearly doubled for episode two and gradually stabilized, averaging more than two and a half million viewers for the first season, prompting the network to order more episodes. Most reviews were positive. Some were perplexed by the game&#8217;s format, but all praised Craig&#8217;s work as the ascot-wearing host.\r\n\r\nThe show will be part of ABC&#8217;s schedule of reality shows and game shows to add original programming to the summer months, which includes <em>Bachelor in Paradise<\/em>, <em>The Bachelorette<\/em>, <em>The Chase<\/em>, <em>The Ultimate Surfer<\/em>, <em>Press Your Luck<\/em>, <em>The $100,000 Pyramid<\/em>, <em>Celebrity Family Feud<\/em>, <em>To Tell the Truth<\/em>, <em>Card Sharks<\/em> and <em>The Celebrity Dating Game<\/em>.\r\n\r\n<span style=\"text-decoration: underline; font-size: large;\"><strong>The Voice of God<\/strong><\/span>\r\nThe fantastically talented <strong>Josh Robert Thompson<\/strong> is having fun ad-libbing like crazy as the &#8220;voice of God&#8221; on Kelly Clarkson&#8217;s talk show.\r\n\r\n<span style=\"font-size: x-small;\">Video courtesy: The Kelly Clarkson Show<\/span>\r\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"YouTube video player\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube-nocookie.com\/embed\/M7hOKCA4Ajo\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe>\r\n\r\nWant more news about Craig Ferguson?
