Ratings for last month's premiere week of "The Ellen DeGeneres Showellen.gif plummeted 38% from last year, suggesting the controversy over reports of a toxic workplace – which led to the firing of three top producers – has spilled over into dwindling fan support. 

The syndicated daytime talk show averaged 1.66 million viewers for the week of Sept. 21, when she addressed the issues on air, down from 2.67 million for the opening week of Sept. 9, 2019, according to the first national Nielsen figures out Tuesday for same-day viewing.  And while it's true that many talk shows are down amid overall declines in broadcast television, "Ellen" had by far the sharpest drop.

Among rivals, "The Kelly Clarkson Show" fell 19% from last year, "Dr. Phil" was off 18%, "Wendy Williams" dropped 24% and "Dr. Oz" was down 17% in early weeks of their seasons.

Better than being cancelled.

Maybe put the show on a hiatus while it still got some dignity until things cool down and people can trust her again? It's not cool to go down like that.

Honestly I'm surprised she came back on so soon after the biggest controversy of her career...

I think a big part of it is that people don't really care anymore. We've all had an awful year and we're exhausted, we don't have the energy to invest attention towards someone who is problematic.

Ellen always banked on her likability, humor, and kindness. That's her brand. Take two of those away and you take away two thirds of her audience.

Inside, we are really made the same. 🕊

Maybe she should’ve been more committed to taking responsibility and solving problems instead of saving face (and failing) 

Get the pinot ready, because it's turtle time.
