Are the rumors true? During a recent interview with The New York Times, Ellen DeGeneres revealed she considering ending her hit daytime talk show, Ellen, in 2016.
The long-running NBC series launched in 2003 and has since gone on to win 57 Emmy awards and feature prominent guests such as Michelle Obama, Hillary Clinton, David Beckham, Lady Gaga, and Taylor Swift.
In the tell-all interview, DeGeneres revealed she almost chose not to renew her contract for The Ellen DeGeneres Show. Though DeGeneres eventually did decide to continue the show through 2020, she says she’s not sure if the NBC talk show will go on once that contract ends.
Read the excerpt below:
DeGeneres recently took the option to extend her contract — until the summer of 2020 — although she had been close to declining. On the question of leaving, she changes her mind all the time. Her brother has been an advocate for staying on, making the case that in the age of Trump, the country needs her positive, unifying voice on television every day.”
What do you think? Do you watch Ellen? Do you think the series should keep going past 2020?
PLEASE CANCEL, She LAUGHS AT YOU, NIT WITH YOU!!!!!!!!
Please do not cancel the Ellen Show or her Game of Game’s show. She is so funny and she helps me get through, what are some very tough times, with both of them. Ellen makes me cry, good years, makes me a more wiser and learned person in many ways, and most of all, Ellen makes me have belly laughs, all the time.!!!! She’s done wonders fir my emotional and mental health, as I’m sure she had for countless others. Please don’t cancel her. Thank you.

I love the Ellen show and her whole cast. Especially when she has Andy doing something so funny she almost pees her pants. You make a lot of people days brighter. But you must do what is best for Ellen ❤️ Please stay in touch somehow.
Let Ellen decide what she wants to do next. She’s probably ready for a new chapter.
Most definitely she should stay on. She is awesome. Her personality is so contagious
its not so much the things she give away it is the joy she displays when she does give.
in this day and time we need something positive to watch on tv
The world is definitely a better place with Ellen in so many lives everyday. She has most definitely made me laugh many of times when I really didn’t want to. You are an amazing person and I love your show!
Pleeeeaaasee don’t stop Ellen. Unless you have tofor yourself. I love you and everything you do. You make me smile, laugh, and cry. I had become disabled a few years ago and you bring such a possitive and fun feeling. Your show is the brightest thing for so many we would miss you sorely. Love Greg.
She’s funny most times, but runs things in the ground. Some things are only funny once, maybe twice. Plus, I don’t watch TV to hear political or lifestyle opinions. I won’t lose any sleep if she leaves.
The world is better with Ellen in it. We do need her show now more than ever.
I love the Ellen show. I can have the worse day. I watch Ellen and my life feels right again. Love love Ellen.. Stay don’t go.
I used to watch Ellen every day – but after a while I found her show to be too predictable and stopped watching years ago. Also, she’s gotten too political for me.
I agree with cat lover. Mp
She is funny, but a little bit of Ellen goes a long way!
