The Royal Wedding Live With Cord and Tish

Debuts May 19 on HBO. At least half a dozen American networks (even PBS!) will provide live coverage of the wedding between Meghan Markle and Prince Harry on May 19th. But only one—HBO—will broadcast the ceremony with live commentary from Cord Hosenbeck and Tish Cattigan, last seen anchoring Amazon's Rose Parade coverage on January 1st. (For some reason, they bear an uncanny resemblance to Will Ferrell and Molly Shannon.) Tim Meadows and other guests will join the Funny or Die-produced broadcast, which will air live at 7:30am ET and get a primetime replay at 9:45pm (in all timezones) for the non-early-risers among you.
