Rachel Ray's daytime talk show is ending after 17 seasons.
Daytime lifestyle show The Rachael Ray Show will finish after seventeen seasons, according to a recent Deadline report. Whilst host Rachael Ray will move on to a career in television production, the news comes after the recent cancellation of other daytime shows, including Dr Phil. “In my more than 20 plus years in television, I have had 17 wonderful seasons working in daytime television with Rachael,” host Ray said.
President of CBS Media Ventures, Steve LoCascio, confirmed the news, expressing his gratitude for the show’s ability to reach a wide audience with a ‘relatable’ host. “When Rachael debuted her show seventeen years ago, she was a game-changer in the daytime space. She made cooking accessible to the masses, taught viewers simple solutions on how to improve their lives and coaxed great stories out of celebrity guests with her relatable down-to-earth demeanor,” he said.
COLLIDER VIDEO OF THE DAY Ray will not be leaving the industry altogether, however, as she begins a new career in production. “My passions have evolved from the talk show format production and syndication model to a platform unencumbered by the traditional rules of distribution,” Ray said, revealing that she will now be “putting all [her] energies into [her] recently announced production arm, Free Food Studios.
The Rachael Ray Show debuted in September 2006, quickly earning the show a number one spot in its syndicated strip. Featuring Ray’s culinary skills, celebrity interviews, health and lifestyle tips, make-overs, musical performances, and other lifestyle segments, the show has been nominated for 37 Daytime Emmys and won three awards for the category of Outstanding Talk Show. The series is executive produced by Janet Annino.
The Rachael Ray Show is currently streaming on Pluto with episodes also available on Youtube. Check out the following clip of one of her recipe segments below:
