Nancy Grace set for daytime TV show

LOS ANGELES (Hollywood Reporter) - Stations owners have reached a verdict: Nancy Grace is coming to daytime TV.

CBS TV Distribution has cleared the talk show of the longtime TV host and former prosecutor, "Swift Justice With Nancy Grace," to air daily on stations representing 80 percent of the country.

That makes Grace's show the first confirmed program to join the daytime ranks in fall 2010. "Justice" will air as back-to-back half-hour episodes and has been cleared in 48 of the top 50 markets.

The polarizing talk show host will continue her legal analysis show on HLN. "Justice" will have a more courtroom-style format that's popular in daytime. Grace will take the daytime field a year before CBS TV's top-rated "The Oprah Winfrey Show" exits the landscape.
