Another piece of the syndicated talk show puzzle has fallen into place heading into NATPE, with the Fox TV Stations opting not to pick up the talk show hosted by Kris Jenner for next season but leaving the door open for 2015. Kris, produced by sibling Twentieth Television, had a six-week trial run on several key Fox stations this past summer.
Reports of her talk show being “canceled” are false, a 20th Television representative says. “It’s too early to make a decision,” the rep continued. Representatives of the show took to Twitter, as well, to deny a report at Radar Online Wednesday citing sources that said that low ratings during its six-week test run left the show dead in the water.
