They were saying there was no way to sign for one. “We can’t do that with the affiliates and the stations need more of a commitment.” So, we [settled] on three more years and I knew that would be my last. That’s been the plan all along. And everybody kept saying, even when I signed, “You know, that’s going to be 19, don’t you want to just go to 20? It’s a good number.” So is 19.”

We all hugged and everyone had tears in their eyes, and Mike Darnell was here going, “You really want to [end this]?” Look, it’s going to be really hard on the last day, but I also know it’s time. I’m a creative person, and when you’re a creative person you constantly need to be challenged, which is why I decided to host the Oscars or why I decided to go back to stand up when I didn’t think I would. I just needed something to challenge me. And as great as this show is, and as fun as it is, it’s just not a challenge anymore. I need something new to challenge me.”

The end of the hit series comes amid a downward trend in ratings and a workplace scandal that saw senior producers at the show accused of bullying and creating a toxic environment. DeGeneres herself was not accused of anything concrete. However, in being the marquee name and executive force of the ship, she found herself embroiled in the drama.

✌️✌️✌️✌️Racist
What did she do that was racist? Truly asking. I only heard she was mean
Bye Ellan ‘Degenerate’
Ellen*
Could Wendy be in with a chance of being Queen of daytime?!
Wendy can never reach ellen’s status.
Wendy Williams show is a gossip show that invites C-list celebrities for interviews. Reality stars like the real housewives, porsha and Nene etc
Ellen has had big names like Michelle Obama, Bill Gates, barrack obama, leonardo DiCaprio, etc.
These people will never go on wendy Williams show.
Kelly Clarkson is probably gonna take Ellen’s spot.
She’s not a good interviewer but she was able to pull big A list celebrities and her karaoke session singing popular songs on every episode is so popular
Mean dykê
Bye ashy
I’m sure Beyoncé going to make a grand appearance on her last taping of the show.
She was not accused of anything ?
B**** please… it wasn’t just her team. Try again.
She seems so… fake.
