Urban's latest album, Graffiti U, is out now. There was no New Year's Eve special last year for NBC, the network intended to air a Sunday Night Football game, but the NFL changed its schedule and no game aired. Dateline and The Wall reruns aired instead. The 2016 special featured America's Got Talent judge Mel B in the cohost role and performances by Alicia Keys, Blake Shelton and Pentatonix. This year's special airs Monday, Dec. 31 from 10-11 p.m. ET/PT with a break for local news and return for the final countdown to 2019 from 11:30 p.m.-12:30 a.m. on NBC. (Eonline)
