The Talk Ending With Season 15 at CBS

CBS is silencing The Talk, renewing the daytime staple for an abbreviated 15th and final season. The last episode is slated to air sometime in December.

In a joint statement, CBS Entertainment President Amy Reisenbach and CBS Studios President David Stapf celebrated the show’s legacy: “The Talk broke new ground when it launched 14 years ago by returning daytime talk to CBS with a refreshing and award-winning format. Throughout the years, it has been a key program on CBS’ top rated daytime line-up as it brought timely, important and entertaining topics and discussions into living rooms around the globe.”

The statement continues: “It goes without saying that hosting and producing a year-round talk show is no easy task, and we express our sincere gratitude to our amazing hosts Akbar Gbajabiamila, Amanda Kloots, Natalie Morales, Jerry O’Connell and Sheryl Underwood, our executive producer/showrunner Rob Crabbe and the hardworking producing team and crew. We also want to acknowledge our former show hosts and colleagues who contributed throughout the seasons. We truly appreciate the skill, creativity, and dedication everyone involved brought to the show every day.  And of course, we thank the numerous guests who appeared, and the millions of viewers who tuned in daily. For the final season, we plan to celebrate the show and give it the proper sendoff it deserves when it concludes in December 2024.”

News of The Talk‘s ending comes shortly after CBS announced plans to develop The Gates, a new daytime soap about a wealthy Black family living in a posh, gated community.
