Rachael Ray’s eponymous daytime discuss present could also be on the chopping block after 17 seasons, in response to TV insiders.
“Her present is ending. This would be the final season,” one trade supply speculated.
One other TV supply advised us they wouldn’t be shocked if the present went away as a result of, “it hasn’t been doing nicely for some time. It’s simple to neglect that it’s even on.”
Ray’s present kicked off this 12 months with the host making hen with champagne and garlic with visitor chef Emeril Lagasse — and dishing on subjects like “new bras for the brand new 12 months.”
On Friday, she’ll have “M3GAN” star Allison Williams on as a visitor.
However insiders on the present scoffed on the trade buzz the present is getting the axe, telling Web page Six, “This discuss comes up yearly as a result of the present is renewed yearly. In truth, they’re on the market renewing the present proper now. There’s by no means a call till later within the spring,” one mentioned.
One other supply added, “They wouldn’t announce renewal to the workers till perhaps March. Nobody would even find out about a renewal till then.”
A rep for the present responded: “We’ve not canceled the present.”
In the meantime, daytime newbies Sherri Shepherd and Jennifer Hudson introduced they’re each being renewed on Wednesday. Fox Tv Stations renewed “Sherri” for “two years via the 2024-25 season.”
