       *Wayne Brady, the jovial host of Fox’s “Celebrity Duets,” will guest star in a special Thanksgiving episode of Chris Rock’s “Everybody Hates Chris,” which will air on Sundays at 8 p.m. this fall on the new CW network beginning Oct. 1.      

       The 34-year-old Brady will star as Uncle Louis, the successful brother of Julius (Terry Crews) and uncle to young Chris (Tyler James Williams). In the episode, premiering Nov. 19, Louis visits Chris’ family for Thanksgiving dinner.      

       “Everybody Hates Chris” is based on the early childhood of its executive producer Chris Rock, who was the oldest of three kids in a Brooklyn neighborhood and bused out of his black neighborhood to a predominantly white school.       

       No word yet if the Uncle Louis character will be as much of a departure from Brady’s G-rated, family-friendly image as his role in a now famous “Chappelle Show” skit, where he played himself as a thug pimp and barked the line, “Is Wayne Brady gonna have to choke a b***h?”
