The Ellen DeGeneres Show has been renewed through the 2019-2020 television season, which will be the show’s 17th.

The comic’s syndicated daytime talk show had previously been renewed through the 2016-2017 television season.

Love, love, love, love the Ellen show, so much , everyday it makes me laugh.

I don’t like it when she is not on. Keep renewing her show please. I have trying to get to see her in person on my bucket list. She has taught kindness to many people.
Robyn Burgess yes leave Ellen on, I want to be her pen pal she’s a very good person and I’m a very unhealthy person with many medical issues. Robyn
