The NBC network has renewed the reality show Betty White'S OFF THEIR ROCKERS, along with  "The Voice," "The Celebrity Apprentice," "Fashion Star" and "The Biggest Loser." They'll be joined by newcomers "Stars Earn Stripes," "Howie Mandel's White Elephant," "Ready for Love," and "Surprise with Jenny McCarthy."

Betty White'S OFF THEIR ROCKERS takes senior stereotypes and blows them out of the water with a cast of sassy septuagenarians who are hip, sexy and ready to party. America's favorite comedy sweetheart sends a fearless band of senior citizens to the streets to pull shockingly hilarious pranks on the younger generation in "Betty White's Off Their Rockers," an outrageously funny "hidden camera" show unlike anything viewers have ever seen. White, a seven-time Emmy Award winner, stars and executive produce the series, adapted from the hit Belgium series "Benidorm Bastards." "People have been telling me that I'm 'off my rocker' for years," says White. "Now I can prove it!"

As star of the series, the inimitable and charming White is featured in brazenly funny sketches, providing saucy commentary between the pranks and sharing her engaging, comicAl Pearls of wisdom. Turning 90 years old in January 2012, White remains one of the busiest – and funniest – actresses in Hollywood, whose credits range from the classic "The Mary Tyler Moore Show" and "Golden Girls" to her current starring role on "Hot in Cleveland."

Chris Coelen, Matilda Zoltowski, Betty White, Scott Hallock, Kevin Healey, Tim Van Aelst and Tim Gibbons are the executive producers of the series, produced by Kinetic Content in association with Hallock Healey Entertainment.
