While The Nate Burkus Show and The Martha Stewart Show have both been cancelled, Rachael Ray’s syndicated series isn’t going anywhere.
The Rachael Ray show, which airs in daytime on various stations across the country, has been renewed for two more seasons. This new deal means that the series will stay on the air at least through the 2013-14 season.

I am so glad they kept the Rachael Ray show going. I was disappointed when I lost it after the morning shows. But, soon picked it up on other channels.
I wish racherl would cook dishes with fish ….I do not eat beef or pork and I have seen to many dishes with red meat. I eat a little lamb and a little chiquen, but I adore fish. Can you tell Rachel to help me?
Thanks
Good fortune on the next two seasons Rachel!
Sincerely

I live in Miami and I can not find the Rachel Ray that aired at 9:00 a.m. in which channel can I find her.
so i went on rachel’s web site and it looks like she is moving to a new studio and the new season starts monday so perhaps she is just not on this week because of that??? Lets hope!
gnr lovin life ยป I suspect your local affiliate has dropped or moved the show.
what happened to rachel ray show, can’t find her on any of our cable channels….so sad.
Rachael used to be on our local cbs channel 4 here in miami at 9am but now i cant find the show. I dont know if it is on at a different time or not on at all.
