I\u2019m headed over to shoot <i>Wordle<\/i> over the next few weeks,\u201d Guthrie announced on Thursday. \u201cWe\u2019re gonna shoot the whole season and we\u2019re super excited. Cannot wait for everyone to see it.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>NBC first announced in May that it would produce a game show inspired by Wordle, a game published by The Times that challenges players to guess a mystery five-letter word in up to six attempts. <\/p>\n<p>The TV version, hosted by Guthrie, is set to air on NBC primetime next year. The half-hour show will see contestants compete for a cash prize. It will be filmed in Manchester, England with The Times and late-night star Jimmy Fallon serving as production partners.<\/p>\n<p>Guthrie\u2019s co-hosts said they\u2019ll miss her as they spoke about their shared love of Wordle. She previously said she shares her scores with friends in multiple group chats, including one called \u201cWordle Nerdle\u201d that includes <i>Today<\/i> co-host Carson Daly and his wife.<\/p>\n<p>Guthrie also shared her love of Wordle with her mother Nancy, who is still missing since getting kidnapped from her Tucson, Arizona home in February.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cEverything is strange right now,\u201d Guthrie told The Times in May. \u201cIt\u2019s strange to get up and do the <i>Today<\/i> show every day, and it\u2019s strange to say that I\u2019m going to do a game show when your heart is broken.\u201d <\/p>\n<p>\u201cNothing about that has changed, and it\u2019s not easy,\u201d she continued, \u201cbut I\u2019m determined to put one foot in front of the other. And this is a joyous thing.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/nationwideinterstatemovers.com\/?p=3687\">White House Melts Down as Trump\u2019s Speech Backfires<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Guthrie stepped away from the <i>Today<\/i> show for two months after her mother disappeared. She returned in an emotional episode in April.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s hard to imagine doing it because it\u2019s such a place of joy and lightness,\u201d she said. \u201cI can\u2019t come back and try to be something that I\u2019m not. But I can\u2019t not come back because it\u2019s my family.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Authorities continue to search for Guthrie\u2019s 84-year-old mother. Earlier this week, the Pima County Sheriff\u2019s Department issued a statement warning people against a QR code scam asking for money related to the investigation.<\/p>\n<p>The <i>Today<\/i> show was rocked by a disturbing incident the same morning that Guthrie made her announcement.<\/p>\n<p>The New York Police Department said in a statement that \u201ca disorderly person\u201d was reported inside 30 Rockefeller Center at about 9:19 a.m. <\/p>\n<p>The unnamed man was apparently looking for weatherman Al Roker, but when he couldn\u2019t find him, he turned to host Craig Melvin, yelling the N-word at him. The intruder was quickly apprehended by security and later arrested.<\/p>\n<div>\n<p>No one was hurt in the incident. Melvin, 47, and Roker, 71, went on air as planned 15 minutes later.<\/p>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/nationwideinterstatemovers.com\/?p=3685\">Trump Judge Rips DOJ Goons Over Embarrassing Blunder<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/article>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Savannah Guthrie is taking a break from the Today show to bring a popular word puzzle to the airwaves.
