Rove McManus's chatshow has been picked up for broadcast in the US.

The Australian TV personality, whose last series Rove LA was aired in his home country last year, will now feature on cable channel TV Guide Network.

According to TV Tonight, the network will air 10 episodes from the first season of Rove LA, where he interviewed celebrity guests such as Justin Timberlake, Hugh Jackman, Eva Longoria, Steve Carell, Pink and Lisa Kudrow.

They have also signed on to air the upcoming second season of the Los Angeles-based programme, which begins filming for Fox8 in September.

TV Guide Network chairman Allen Shapiro said: "We are continuing to invest in original series and exclusive programming that will draw entertainment fans closer to their favourite stars.

"Rove LA will offer viewers fresh comedy programming with some of the best-known celebrities in Hollywood today, as well as up-and-coming talent."

McManus, who relocated to the US with his second wife Tasma Walton last year, is fronting Foxtel's Olympics coverage later this year.

He is also among the stars presenting awards at the Logie Awards in Australia later this month
