Loni Love Addresses the Future of ‘The Real’ After Cancellation Reports

Published: Sunday 13th Mar 2022 by Sam

Amidst news of a fresh wave of daytime talk shows set to launch later this year, it’s been reported that ‘The Real’ may be gearing up to wave goodbye.

The long-running series is currently in its eighth season and managed to find its footing in the competitive and notoriously unforgiving talk arena.

However, it’s being suggested by sources that its network Fox is pulling the plug.

Well, anchor Loni Love is addressing the reports head-on.

Find out what she had to say below…

On the future of the show, Loni said:

“It’s been a busy few days but I got a call from the studio.. no official decision has been made about #TheReal …I will be ok but please give grace to the 150 crew members this may affect… we will finish Season 8 and wait for official word.”

‘The Real’ launched in 2013 and saw Loni host alongside Adrienne Houghton, Jeannie Mai, Tamera Mowry, and Tamar Braxton. 

Today, the comic currently co-anchors the latest incarnation of the show with Houghton, Mai, and Garcelle Beauvais.

      Its time for the Real to leave the show got boring

      • Lynne March 17, 2022

        The Real is a very good show and I have been watching it since day one. I love the ladies and the topics. I honestly hope they don’t get cancelled. 🙏🏾🙏🏾

    Tamera leaving was the final nail in the coffin. The post C**** set up is trash too. They had a good run.

      You want yo stay relevant, BRING THE AUDIENCE BACK

      • George Griendling Jr March 14, 2022

        Every show has a shelf life, and The Real has apparently hit theirs.

    • Sweetest Puss 💋 March 14, 2022

      Ikr. Good riddance

  3. Justme March 13, 2022

    Bring the audience back

  4. Jdreamer March 14, 2022

    What needs to happen is a re fresh, Loni needs to be let go, she’s old school drama and needs to be replaced if they return

    Maybe the cheetah girl can keep her f****** mouth shut talking about Britney. That’d what happens b**** when you open your mouth about a legend. Just like Katy Perry. Her career ended too. Now little Minnie Mouse Cheetah Girl voice can get a real job.

      I don’t know you remember when When she was saying that that she don’t need this that she didn’t care about this because she knew the show was gonna be canceled and she acts like she’s so high mighty I don’t like that about her she’s very mathematical stick. She never before used to be talking about God God or anything like that ever since she got married to like do everything now is like on my house I bought a mansion she didn’t buy no car d*** mansion because you don’t have a party person.

    Let’s not criticize the women. They have done a marvelous job. Except they told yoo much private stuff and they bragged on men too much
    See people, if this was a man talk show, most of you would be exalting and bragging on the men, saying how awesome and amazing the male hosts have been. Women should be more respectful to each other .
    You know how you Americans brag on your men.

    This is a good show the girls are terrific. Better than some of these silly shows you have now or bringing in the new season that are not funny. Keep the on the air. You could do worse!!!

  8. Denise March 14, 2022

    Fox 5 needs to leave Nick Cannon show and the Real alone. Love both talk shows

    • Roberta March 14, 2022

      Nick’s show can definitely go. He’s no example to young black me with the babies all over the place. How can you be an effective parent with limited time that he has and has to spread himself all over the place. Plus he’s too juvenile. Like the guest he has though.

  9. JustSaying March 14, 2022

    The show has been circling the drain ever since they got rid of Tamar Braxton. The show was never the same and it was destined to fail. Tamera also leaving was the thing that made sure the show wouldn’t last. I know so many people who stopped watching the show after Tamar left. The show doesn’t even air in my area.

    • Roberta March 14, 2022

      Tamar was too over the top. Dont miss her at all.

      • phyllis kirk March 14, 2022

        It’s time to put this talk show to bed.Too kiddish,kiddush, and to me not that much real about it.

    • The View March 14, 2022

      Most of the audience left with Tamar! They tried it. Glad this s*** cancelled 😂😂😂👏🏽

      • Gwinnett Shaw March 14, 2022

        Tamar was way too negative and not a team player. You would think she’d be better than that having 4 older sister’s. I hate to say it but wasn’t sad to see her go. She was so very immature for most of the time she was there. And if they didn’t agree with here view point she could behave in a less than mature way. But I get it that’s what her fan’s like to see. I’m a woman of a particular age and I desire to see women who know how to handle conflict or rise above.

      • Tamar March 14, 2022

        CANCELLED B****

    • DEE March 14, 2022

      😂😂😂😂😂 WOW I NEVER LIKE THE SHOW SINCE TAMAR LEFT… THEY WERE INTIMIDATED BY HER FROM DAY ONE.****

    • Kimberly Smith March 15, 2022

      Braxton left the show five years ago….that drain of yours must of been clogged.lol.They are were young woman with strong opinions which as in ” real”life change as you get older and wiser.Im not a frequent watcher but usually found the shows to be a refreshingly honest if not flawed points of views.

  10. Grayfoxx March 14, 2022

    Get rid of that drunk, Loni but keep the show. The other women are a good mix.

  11. up. Bourn March 14, 2022

    I luv the show.an pray that it dosen’t stop.it helps so many,in their lives.please allow them to continue ue.

  12. Nita Hill-young March 14, 2022

    Please keep the Real on I recently started back to watching and I Love the show. Loni is my favorite host. 😍

  13. Jerry Denman-Taylor March 14, 2022

    I’m 72 yrs old, I’ve been watching the Real since day one, I record every episode. The Real is very informative and I love the conversations the ladies have and the topics they touch on every day. As a 72 yr old great- grandmother I can relate to every topic, situation and circumstance. If you remove this show you will be doing society a dis service, but that’s my opinion.

  14. Joanne Inurie March 14, 2022

    So sorry to see u all go. I truly enjoy your show the Real and all of their co hosts past and present but I truly believe u all and the Real Talk Show would surely b missed. But I do hope that in the end the show stays on. Cause u all knows how to do your show and keep your fans. Gods blessings b with u all.

  15. Denise Deramus March 14, 2022

    That’s a good show. Very informative ladies be are smart. No drama.The show is worth being in n tv.

  16. Roberta March 14, 2022

    Nick’s show can definitely go. He’s no example to young black me with the babies all over the place. How can you be an effective parent with limited time that he has and has to spread himself all over the place. Plus he’s too juvenile. Like the guest he has though.

  17. Roberta March 14, 2022

    I watch The Real every day. I hope they don’t take it off the air. Will be glad when Jeannie comes back. She helps give the show a good balance. Loni tells it like it is and I love her. Garcelle is a little naive and Adrienne is just too much of a prude. But all on all I love the show and will miss it if you take it off.

  18. Betty Thornton March 14, 2022

    I watched the real from the beginning, I’ve come to love each one of you collectively, respectfully. I was hurt when Tamar left and said I wouldn’t watch again, but of course I did. Then Tamera left, I was heartbroken once again,I had so many questions as to what was really going on, I heard things but didn’t know what was real & what was not. Yet, I continued to watch & thought the show was gonna be okay. Now this!!! I wish I could have met these young ladies that would have been a dream come true, guess now all I can do is to continue to pray for them, love them from afar, & wish them all the very best in whatever they do, and to find the path God has prepared for them to follow. The original cast Loni, Tamar, Adrienne, & of course my HUNAE Jeanine Mai, just know ladies your biggest fan from day one in Philly love you more than she can say. 😥

  19. MAL March 14, 2022

    The only one that will missed will be Garcielle

  20. The Fake March 14, 2022

    Y’all look at Loni and them in the comments 😂👏🏽 too cute.

    RIP THE “REAL.”

  21. Cheryl March 14, 2022

    Omg. This is one of the best shows ever..all 4 of them ladies are great.your wrong to get rid of this show. Very sad…..

  22. Gwinnett Shaw March 14, 2022

    I’m certainly hoping this is not true. I’m a faithful viewer and I love these ladies. I was worried after Tamera Housley decided to move on but when Garcelle (Fancy) replaced her I was like yes! Those 4 are such a great combination. I love how they are about uplifting other women as opposed to tearing women down. It’s sad that women tearing one another down is what people would rather see. PLEASE DON’T LET THIS HAPPEN. I know all the ladies will be okay if it’s truly the end but what other show can we watch where women aren’t going at one another. It will be a sad day for me 😭😭😭

  23. Carolyn Howard March 14, 2022

    I’ve watched the Real from day one. When I was working I recorded it to watch at night. Since I’ve retired I watch it everyday. The show is informative and touches on different ethnicities views. Please keep them on and bring back the audience.

  24. Ana March 14, 2022

    I seriously can’t believe they just ended The Real like that! After 8 seasons I hope it’s not canceled it. I hate it when they do that to shows! Also now what tv show am I going to watch for relaxing background noise?

  25. Annette March 14, 2022

    Come on Loni, I loved when you were out front. Loving Gabrielle & Jeanie but the one you Munch-Kin think it’s her SHOW!!!
    Please give the others a chance to talk Producers without them having to Jump in the conversations to Shut Her Up. Please be a quiet little more Munch-Kin!! Especially when the topic is about KIDS YOU HAVE NONE!!! Glad Gabrielle is there!!

  26. Annette March 14, 2022

    I know I said Munch-kin needs to Shut Up!! Before! It’s not making any Rating bc of her!! Read the comments. It’s still going on!
    I’m not the only one noticing her mouth.
    It still goingb

  27. Else March 14, 2022

    I loved the show very informative
    I hate to see it canceled. Adrianne Houghton I will surely miss you good luck

  28. Brenda March 14, 2022

    I’m not into talk shows 😒, so it truly doesn’t matter if its on or off. My opinion only. I’m not into gossip.

  29. Bob Hill March 14, 2022

    You did this

  30. Kevo March 14, 2022

    It’s time.. such a revolving door for the show and these ladies, all of them has other shows and projects. I’m still surprised that Sister Circle was cancelled.

  31. Belinda March 15, 2022

    It was never the same when Tamar left…they truly messed up a good combination.

  32. Carla Fluker March 15, 2022

    Loni love you always. 😍 you show Love around everyone..Also everyone Adrian Garcia and Jeanne I’m ready to see Jeanne baby I wanted to see her grow up around the real I really truly enjoy the show and I record you every one of the program

  33. Shirley March 15, 2022

    Please Fix don’t cancel The Real

  34. Sonja Morrison March 15, 2022

    You should have never let Tamera Mowry Housley go. The show was so good with her on it.

  35. Jessica March 15, 2022

    Yes it’s time, Loni needs her own show the other girls are borning

  36. Kimberly Smith March 15, 2022

    Braxton left the show five years ago….that drain of yours must of been clogged.lol.They are were young woman with strong opinions which as in ” real”life change as you get older and wiser.Im not a frequent watcher but usually found the shows to be a refreshingly honest if not flawed points of views.

  37. Patricia. Campbell March 15, 2022

    Love the show with your down to earth subjects that friends would have together, love the chemistry between the cohosts and hopefully the network will make the correct move to allow your show to remain for another season!!!!

  38. Mary Murdock March 15, 2022

    This is great talk show, got all different races and they talk from the heart. Pls leave on,2 many behind workers will b out of work. Think about that.

  39. Shawn Moree March 15, 2022

    I am from the Bahamas. I love watching the Real. I look forward to that show everyday. I pray that it don’t end. Lorni, Jeannie, Adrienne and Garcelle are such beautiful and ladies.. i pray it don’t end. You ladies are the best.

  40. Jacqueline Allen March 16, 2022

    I think it’s because of the pandemic the girls has it had no audience and maybe the ratings went down. Fox 5 you are also canceling Nick Cannon show I think you need to give these two shows a chance. As for the real you need to find a way to bring the audience back even if it’s just a little bit of people I think the ratings will go back up. As for Nick Cannon give him a chance he just started the show I think it’s great both shows are great. If you take both shows off you need to find a good show to replace them.

  41. Anita Flanagan March 18, 2022

    The show was originally GREAT, but as all talk shows go, the departure of original hosts make a huge difference. In my opine, it’s the different personalities, opinions, looks, et cetera. Nothing lasts forever, but they had a good run. Tim’s for new ideologies. Please, however, take care of the staffers; everyone needs gainful employment…at least most of us; I know, I lost mine. Happy weekend to all!!!

  42. DMH April 10, 2022

    This is awful! There has to be another way to handle things instead of canceling The Real!! It’s the best talk show ever! Girl Chat is hot!! Please don’t cancel this show!! Please!!!
