EVERYBODY LOVES CHRIS

The second season premiere of Chris Rock-inspired sitcom "Everybody Hates Chris" premieres on Sunday, October 1 on The CW with a very special guest star Whoopi Goldberg as Chris' new neighbor.

Now, the word is out "Celebrity Duets" host Wayne Brady will also make an appearance later this season, on the Thanksgiving episode, playing Chris' uncle - Julius' successful brother.

The show that aired last season on UPN, will be kicking off a night of sitcom programming on The CW at an earlier time of 7/6c.
