Say it ain’t so!! A fter weeks of speculation, despite renewing the show for Season 2 in February after securing a two-year deal with the Tribune stations pre-launch, The Arsenio Hall Show will not continue on for its second season! It was announced Friday that the show has come to a end. *Sighs* Check out the released statement below!
“Unfortunately, The Arsenio Hall Show will not return for a second season; while there are many loyal fans of the show, the series did not grow its audience enough to continue,” CBSTVD said in a statement Friday. “Arsenio is a tremendous talent and we’d like to thank him for all the hard work and energy he put into the show. We’d also like to thank Tribune and all our station group partners for their support of the show.”
Added Hall: “When I started this adventure with CTD and Tribune, we all knew it would be a challenge — I’m gratified for the year we’ve had and proud of the show we created. I’d like to thank everyone on my staff for rallying around me and striving to make the best show possible every night.”
This is unfortunate. Arsenio’s show was filled of 90s nostalgia! We enjoyed watching it, he had great guest and topics, and it was warming seeing him on late night again! He will continue to prosper!
