Ellen DeGeneres is not leaving the entertainment world altogether, of course.
So even though she won’t be doing the talk show thing anymore after 2022, DeGeneres’ impact on TV will likely continue for many years to come.
As confirmed by Warner Bros. Unscripted TV President Mike Darnell, who was one of the aforementioned talk show producers urging her to keep going for another season, DeGeneres is indeed sticking with Warner Bros. for future ventures, having already worked with them on a slew of unscripted series in recent years, including Ellen’s Game of Games for NBC, The Masked Dancer for Fox, Ellen’s Next Great Designer for HBO Max, and the upcoming Family Game Fight with Kristen Bell and Dax Shepard.
