Nick Cannon's talk show canceled six months after its premiere

Deadline

Today is scheduled to be the final day of production for Cannon's syndicated daytime talk show, which launched last September after a year-long delay. "The show’s producer-distributor, Lionsgate’s Debmar-Mercury, is expected to tell the crew that the two episodes filming today will be the talker’s last ones," according to Deadline's Nellie Andreeva. "I hear the original plan had been for the show to go on a five-week hiatus while Nick Cannon is busy filming Fox’s The Masked Singer and VH1’s Wild 'N Out, with the crew getting a week of pay during the break. Nick Cannon will instead permanently shut down production, with the crew getting severance." The show won't go off the air right away since there are enough episodes for the entire season. Nick Cannon, which was supposed to premiere in fall 2020 but was pushed back one year because of Cannon's anti-Semitism controversy, was the lowest-rated single-host daytime syndicated talk show this season.
