First there was American Idol, then America's Most Talented Kid and, soon, Junior Idol. Now NBC is giving seniors a chance to perform in front of America for a $25,000 grand prize on Second Chance: America's Most Talented Senior.

Mario Lopez, who hosted America's Most Talented Kid and is co-host of The Other Half, will host the show. It will feature older Americans from across the country who will compete in an overall talent contest. The categories will range from song and dance to the most exceptional and unusual acts. Contestants range in age from 54 to 82.

Celebrity judges will be Shirley Jones of The Partridge Family, Barry Williams of The Brady Bunch and Estelle Harris of Seinfeld. The one-hour special will air Sunday, June 1, at 8 p.m. It's a production of NBC Studios.
