Tamron Hall

Picking up Disney’s second longest-running syndicated show are ABC Owned Television Stations and leading broadcast groups including Hearst, Scripps, Nexstar, Tegna, Gray and Allen Media Group.

Today’s episode of ABC‘s Tamron Hall show was scotched after a grease fire in an on-set kitchen caused a brief evacuation of the Upper West Side ABC studio where Hall tapes the show. A rerun of the Monday eclipse episode was aired instead, but in a brief live appearance ahead of the episode Hall stood on the empty, mostly evacuated set and explained what happened.

After a tumultuous exit from NBC — and a brief business arrangement with disgraced mogul Harvey Weinstein — Hall has gone on to become Disney’s second longest-running syndicated talk show host.

Tamron Hall, Hall’s eponymous daytime talk show, has been renewed for a fifth season across the country, including on television station groups including Cox Media Group, Gray Television, Hearst Television, Nexstar Media Group, E.W. Scripps Co. and others, Hall announced during the show today. Last year, the ABC Owned Television Stations Group gave the show a two-season renewal, taking it through next season.

In this repeat of the Talking TV episode from Oct.. 7, TVNewsCheck’s Michael Depp speaks with talk show host Tamron Hall about how her show is hitting a post-pandemic groove and her work with the NAB Leadership Foundation as its newly named industry ambassador. A full transcript of the conversation is included.

Finding a respectable place within the highly contested world of daytime talk which includes shows hosted by Drew Barrymore, Kelly Clarkson and Rachel Ray, along with juggernauts like Dr. Phil, The View, Live with Kelly and Ryan and The Ellen DeGeneres Show which recently ended, Hall faces even more competition as several shows hosted by African Americas will premiere. But while proclaiming Oprah Winfrey as the undisputed greatest talk show host of all time, she’s unsure if the iconic show created lanes for Black daytime personalities like many assumed it would.

After serving as the syndicated talk show’s interim executive producer since October, ABC News President Kim Godwin makes it official.

Honoring transformative achievements in broadcast television, the Iris Awards Luncheon will headline the Station Group Summit as part of NATPE Miami 2022, live from the Fontainebleau in Miami on Jan. 19.

The eight ABC Owned Television Stations lead the renewal through the 2023-24 syndication season.

Good Morning America weekend executive producer Quiana Burns will serve as the interim EP for ABC’s syndicated Tamron Hall. The news comes a few days after it was first reported that Candi Carter was abruptly exiting the daytime talker. Carter will return to her first-look development deal with ABC Entertainment.

Tamron Hall is moving to a new part of the Walt Disney empire. The news and talk show veteran, whose current program has been syndicated by Disney since its launch in the fall of 2019, will now be part of ABC News, according to a person familiar with the matter, adding another daytime talk program to the news division’s portfolio.

Tamron Hall’s syndicated daytime talk show is moving to ABC-owned WLS Chicago, where it will air in place of Windy City Live at 1 p.m. Monday through Friday, starting Sept. 6. Soon to kick off its third season, the New York-based Tamron Hall has been airing on Weigel Broadcasting’s WCIU and The U since 2019.

Since its debut in September 2019, the veteran journalist’s nationally syndicated daytime talker, The Tamron Hall Show, has gobbled up ratings and big-name gets. A month after its Season 2 premiere, Disney announced in October that Hall would be renewed, marking the first time a new daytime talk series secured a third-year run since The Steve Harvey Show did it six years ago.

Walt Disney Television has renewed the nationally syndicated daytime talk show Tamron Hall for a third season. Hall is expected to announce the pickup at her show this morning.

The awards program will be accessible online and available to air on local television and radio stations starting Aug. 22. The annual awards celebrate the vital role of local radio and television stations throughout the U.S.

Tamron Hall took her syndicated talk show into pandemic remote production from her kitchen with a brand-new showrunner, a toddler and a squawking parrot in tow. She says even without the studio audience with whom she loves to connect, the show’s intimacy hasn’t been lost in the transition.

Tamron Hall will return beginning March 30 with new segments originating from her home and focused on COVID-19, buttressed with encore segments from previous shows. The show, recently renewed for a second season, shut down two weeks ago when the coronavirus crisis began.

Geddie — who, alongside Barbara Walters, helped build the The View into the behemoth it is today — had been the executive producer of Hall’s show since it premiered in September. An insider said: “He hasn’t been there since the holiday break and they stopped speaking around the fall.” Added another, “He has not been involved in the day-to-day runnings since October.”

The View, Live With Kelly and Ryan and Tamron Hall have been added to the list of shows that will be taping without a studio audience due to growing concerns about the spread of the coronavirus. “Given the current developing situation in New York City, we have made the decision to suspend live audiences from attending our news broadcasts and talk shows,” a Walt Disney Television spokesperson said this morning.

Walt Disney Television is renewing syndicated talk show Tamron Hall for a second season, saying it has been cleared in more than 80% of the country.

It’s not yet December and already TV stations know with certainty that two of this year’s new shows will return, with two more rookies likely to get second-season renewals. Moreover, stations also already know two more big shows are coming down the pike next year, bringing the total to six before we’ve even hit 2020.

The differentiating factor between Disney’s Tamron Hall and everyone else hitting syndication this season is that Tamron airs live three days a week on the East Coast and live-to-tape everywhere else, just like Disney’s Live with Kelly and Ryan, which Tamron follows in many major markets.

Tamron Hall will enter an already crowded talk space when it debuts in syndication on Monday, including a new entry from Kelly Clarkson, whose talk show bows the same day. Hall, 48, is not concerned though, because what she thinks Tamron Hall will provide is a unique factor —herself.

Tamron Hall, the keynote speaker Wednesday at the Promax Station Summit at The Mirage in Las Vegas, held sway in front of a full house of local TV marketing executives. Seated on stage with her executive producer, Bill Geddie, Hall won over the audience with her story of humble origins and hard work in local TV news.

Walt Disney Direct-to-Consumer and International has cleared the show in more than 85% of the U.S.

Hall’s new syndicated talk show, which was being pitched as a daytime offering, will air instead from 8 to 9 p.m. Monday through Friday on Weigel Broadcasting’s independent WCIU Chicago. It’s a huge coup for Hall and an exceedingly shrewd move by the Weigel bosses.

In addition to the previously announced ABC Owned Television Stations Group and Hearst Television stations, the show has been licensed to stations from broadcast groups for fall, including Cox, Sinclair, Scripps, Meredith, Tribune, Gray and Nexstar.

The presence of several new shows and their talent at NATPE next week should make for a livelier convention and reassure broadcasters about the health of syndication, one of the cornerstones of their business.
