People who grew up without cable mourned the loss of Maury last, after it was announced the 30-year-old talk show would be canceled. Well, get your happy dance ready because the results are in: Maury Povich will be playing himself in the upcoming second season of The Proud Family: Louder and Prouder. Details are slim as to what his role will be like in the series, but if it’s anything like his own show, a lie detector will be involved (will we find out whether Suga Mama is truly the mama?). The legendary talk-show host has played himself on shows such as How I Met Your Mother and The Jack and Triumph Show and the film Madea’s Big Happy Family, but this will be one of his first guest appearances since 2015. He did assist Lil Nas X in a parody episode of Maury in 2021 that was a follow-up to “That’s What I Want.” If Povich’s voice acting is anything like the Lil Nas X parody, he will be the father (of iconic cameos).
