Steve Harvey and his young friends are coming back to the peacock network. NBC has announced that their Little Big Shots TV show will return for its third season on Sunday, March 18th. A pair of episodes will begin airing at 7:00 pm. The following week, March 25th, the series will air in the 8:00 pm hour.
