Months after accusations of a “toxic” workplace were leveled against “The Ellen DeGeneres” show, host Ellen DeGeneres has decided to end the daytime talker next year, bringing its run to a close with Season 19, TheWrap has learned.
“When you’re a creative person, you constantly need to be challenged – and as great as this show is, and as fun as it is, it’s just not a challenge anymore,” DeGeneres, who is about to conclude Season 18 of “Ellen,” told The Hollywood Reporter Wednesday.
According to THR, DeGeneres told her staff about her decision to end the show on Tuesday.
