Nexstar Broadcasting and Fox Television Stations have cancelled Hollywood Today Live after two seasons. The nationally syndicated daily entertainment news and talk variety show will not return for Season 3. The last episode airs April 28, 2017.
Nexstar blamed poor ratings for the cancellation:
“Fox Television and Nexstar conducted a thorough analysis of Hollywood Today Live and were unable to find a sufficient audience to support continued national syndication.”
Perry A. Sook, chairman, president-CEO of Nexstar Media Group, added:
“Nexstar is in the local media business and we remain focused on extending our legacy of local programming and content leadership by supporting the evolving needs and interests of our local viewers, hometown businesses and community organizations that we proudly serve each day. We are now evaluating other opportunities where we can create value from BiteSizeTV to generate positive results. Nexstar looks forward to continuing our relationship with Fox Television Stations and our partners at Fox Television.”
RIP.

Oh no, I ejoyed watching ths show. Completely shocked. Although it is indicated the last episode is April 28, 2017, it’s April 20th, what’s up with that? It was not on April 18th or 19th either! Wish the right information was given. Disappointed!
Liz says
I sure hate to hear that. But I was afraid when they got rid of AJ that things might go downhill. I liked Lance in there too.
Deborah Brudnak says
So shocked this show has been canceled. It is a true joy to watch it every day. Perhaps the timeslot was wrong. It certainly wasn’t the fault of the cast. There was one woman that annoyed me a little. But otherwise I loved loved this show. I will really miss it. Ross was the best. Always made me laugh. Very sad.
So Sad says
Awwwww will miss them.

What am I suppose to do now! I use to go to bed with Dave but he retired, so I started going to bed with you all. My mom even switched from watching Jimmy Fallon to watching your show. Will be sadly missed, Love you all!

Holzer made a critical error by signing Garcelle who came across as racist, angry and plane miserable every single episode from the very beginning. The thinner African American replacement guest Host was way better when she was on and represented the Hollywood look which the show was supposed to speak to and from. Firing Kristen was the final nail in the coffin. She was truly perfect on and for the Show. Once she was gone there was no reason to keep watching. The constant changing of Hosts with zero chemistry and zero loyalty among the remaining Hosts just holding on was not entertaining.

I just don’t understand how a network cancels a show that is full of happiness and not vulgar. Any chance another Network will pick you up? Are they going to replace you with another fake court show? You are a great show that my whole family could enjoy. No disgusting talk no junk. You will be greatly missed. I was recently diagnosed with a mental disorder that has taken me from work and you were my happiness. Will miss you and I pray you get picked up soon.
OC says
What IS it with these constant cancellations of perfectly good shows?? I have so enjoyed watching this show and it’s adorable hosts. Who is it that makes these decisions? They should be ashamed.
Carlos Ruiz says
I love this show. It’s like family getting together for the holidays everyday.
Patti Dudek says
Love this show!! Will miss it….any chance of rethinking this decision and maybe put it on at a different time slot to help with the ratings??
John H says
I had switched over from Jimmy Kimmel to Hollywood Today Live … and now it’s gone. This show was full of love and laughter. I’ll miss it … hope they reconsider this decision soon.
