The Next Best Thing: Who Is The Greatest Celebrity Impersonator? premiered on ABC on May 30, 2007. In each episode, a panel of popular well-known judges will use their razor sharp wit and comedic skills as they evaluate, critique and sometimes skewer celebrity impersonators based on how much they look, sound and act like the celebrity they're impersonating. The judges will determine who will go on to compete in the next round of auditions, while America will vote for the final winning impersonator through a viewer voting system. The winner will receive a grand prize of $100,000.
