Channel 9 Pulls ‘The Ellen DeGeneres Show’ Episodes Amid Controversy

• Channel 9 has replaced ‘The Ellen DeGeneres Show’ reruns with ‘Desperate Housewives’ reruns. 
• They are also deciding if they will air new episodes or not. 
• The news comes amid lots of controversy surrounding the talk show. 

 

Just a few days after Ellen DeGeneres released another apology, Channel 9 decided to remove the show from its schedule. Currently, different channels are airing reruns of the show while it is on hiatus. Reportedly, Channel 9 is still deciding what to do about the new episodes when they air.

It all started with accusations swirling around the Internet of Ellen and other producers’ toxic behavior on the show. The parent company WarnerMedia decided to conduct an internal investigation and producers Ed Glavin, Kevin Leman, and co-EP Jonathan Norman were fired.

Discussions are ongoing regarding the new series.”
