"Betty White is a comedic genius who escalates hilarity in any situation," Telegdy said in a statement. "Viewers will thoroughly enjoy watching her pull one over on the unsuspecting youth of America."
"People have been telling me that I'm 'Off My Rocker' for years -- now I can prove it," added White.
