Comedian Sherri Shepherd’s daytime talk show “Sherri” has been canceled after four seasons, as confirmed by Lionsgate’s producer/distributor Debmar-Mercury. The announcement comes amid a broader shift in the daytime television landscape, which has seen changes in programming and viewer preferences. “Sherri” will continue to air its current Season 4, with episodes set to wrap up in the near future. Debmar-Mercury is exploring the possibility of continuing the show on a digital platform, indicating that while the traditional syndication run is ending, there may be opportunities for the program to adapt to new formats. The show tapes live at Chelsea Studios in New York City in front of a studio audience, and it has been a part of the daytime talk show lineup since its debut. In addition to “Sherri,” another daytime talk show, “The Kelly Clarkson Show,” has also announced its cancellation, stating it will conclude at the end of 2026 after seven seasons. This trend reflects the evolving nature of daytime television, as producers and distributors reassess their programming strategies in response to changing viewer habits and market dynamics.
