HLN has opted to pull the plug on Joy Behar instead of keeping her on their air even though she is the network’s second highest rated show. A publicist for HLN confirmed the firing to The Hollywood Reporter by saying, “The show has not been renewed.”
I never understood the hiring in the first place, so I am happy she is gone. Not that I ever watched her show, but hopefully the network will start doing more of the N (news) in the HLN again because then it was a channel worth watching.
Now that they got rid of the annoying loud mouth from The View, any chance they are thinking of doing to the same to Dr Drew?
UPDATE: Joy Behar Tweeted her reaction to the cancellation, “Thanks for all your support. But you know what they say…the show must go off.”
