Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Daytime, Talk Shows, Syndication, Oprah Winfrey Show, Cancellations, News

It looks as if 25 will be Oprah Winfrey’s lucky number.

In a meeting with her staff members today, Winfrey officially announced that her daytime talk show will turn off the lights in two years. That same news will be delivered on her program tomorrow. The 2011 end date means The Oprah Winfrey Show will close after celebrating its silver anniversary.

This decision comes after weeks of increased speculation about her future. It has been rumored for some time that Oprah would simply take the show out of syndication and bring in to OWN: The Oprah Winfrey Network.

Rescue Me to End in 2011

Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Drama, FX, Cancellations, News, Renewals

Some good news and bad news for followers of Rescue Me. The FX series about New York City firefighters has just been granted a 7th season. Unfortunately, that will also be the program’s last.

The timing of the show’s end has been carefully thought out. The final hours will air in 2011—the year we celebrate commemorate the 10th anniversary of the 9/11 attacks.

“Within the next couple of weeks, we’re going to begin shooting the last 19 episodes, which will be the final two seasons of the show,” co-creator and executive producer Peter Tolan said.

Rescue Me‘s current season will wrap on up on September 1.
