“The Jennifer Hudson Show” has been renewed for Season 2 by Fox Television Stations.
Hosted by EGOT winner Hudson, the daytime talk show originally premiered on Sept. 12 and debuted as the 2022-23 season’s No. 1 new first-run series with households and total viewers. Per Warner Bros. Discovery, the series is averaging 5.2 million weekly viewers.
Hearst Television, along with other station partners, also renewed “The Jennifer Hudson Show” for Season 2, which covers more than 60% of the U.S. combined with Fox.
“Working on this show alongside my incredible team and our amazing partners has been one of the greatest joys of my career,” Hudson said in a statement. “We have been on this journey together from day one and I am so thrilled to take it to the next level. I could not be more grateful to audiences across America for letting me into their homes everyday as we empower and inspire one another. I can’t wait to show you what we have up our sleeves in season two!”
Hudson’s eponymous talk show features celebrity interviews, topical stories, viral sensations and musical performances. Last year, the series earned a People’s Choice Award nomination in the Daytime Talk Show category.
