For over 19 seasons, The Ellen Show has aired more than 3,200 episodes since it premiered on the small screens last September 2003. As one of the most beloved shows on television, it gained 64 Daytime Emmy Awards.

The show was previously reported about a toxic work environment, which led DeGeneres to give a televised apology, especially to those who experienced negativity inside of their workplace. When asked about her opinion about the said report, the talk show host revealed that she was extremely hurt about the matter.

Last May 2021, DeGeneres made the 19th Season the final season when she announced she would be ending her show, and the final episode is set to air this coming May 26 on NBC.

DeGeneres stated that she witnessed how the world changed since she started the show last 2003. “When we started this show in 2003, the iPhone didn’t exist. Social Media didn’t exist. Gay marriage wasn’t legal. We watched the world change, sometimes for the better, sometimes not,” she penned.

“But whatever was happening, my goal was always for the show to be a place where we could all come together and laugh for an hour. Being invited to your lives has been the greatest privilege of my life and has brought me incredible joy. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you,” she continued.
