'The Ellen DeGeneres Show' has officially ended

[Bat 6,161]

About time, even though she's an icon, sometimes things doors need to close in order to open a new one.

Say what you want about her and/or the show, but it's iconic and has been important in the LGBTQ+ movement.

The Ellen Show will forever be a cultural touchstone to the early 2000s and 2010s 

I have so many incredible memories of interviews with guests as well as particular non famous guests like Lisa Jarmon who she was able to build a house for, Gladys the old woman from Texas (who I still can't figure out if she was real or not) that Ellen would talk to on the phone (she's the "I Love Jesus But I Drink.A Little woman") , or even Jeanie the woman who she had come to the show after being a fan and ended up giving her a job 

So many iconic moments over the year and i'm sad to see it come to a close

Gaga’s early interviews and performances on that show were really good.

Its sad to see it ending, but who knows what she'll come up with in the future! She has opened up a lot of doors for the LGTBQ community, no denying that.

Sad that it ended, no matter what happened... It was a cool show I wished I could've attended (especially the special christmas episodes when she gifted amazing things every day )

It's also a shame gaga wasn't a guest again

I wish people showed more empathy towards her before they decided to quit the show. She may be a shitty person but it was a milestone for queer visibility on a global scale so I'm asking was it worth it that we've lost such an important show?

So bittersweet to see it come to an end. I remember when it first started. Queerness was still a pretty taboo topic on TV. I didnt even know I was gay yet, but I always loved and admired her as one of the pioneers to help the message of acceptance. Even before the show, I was a big fan of her stand up routine and acting. So to have her on tv every week day, just having fun with her guests and the audience, was so much fun! Whatever went on these last few years, I hope was not anything intentional on her part (it just doesnt seem like it would have been) nor from anyone on her team. And if anyone was at fault I hope they've learned a lesson and have grown. I think she's just ready to move on to other things though after having done this for so long. Its hard to let something so familiar like this go but I imagine she's also looking forward to new opportunities, and to resting/relaxing!

One of my all time favorite moments on her show was Kristen Bell and the sloth lol I always go back to watch it, and I quote so much of it in my daily life ha:

 

 

I didnt laugh

Poor people who can’t see passed headlines and how much good she did for gay visibility. 

[CooterFritter 777]

She was a toxic person bts and cultured a toxic work environment. That’s not a good look for us tbh.

100% agreed! Do we know if she is retiring or will she be working on some new projects?

I'm sure she will be part of some new projects.

you guys are soooo close to acknowledging this show's place in history and also recognizing that we're past ready for new & better representation lol.
