It was all tears on the Friday, August 4 episode of “The Talk,” as co-host Aisha Tyler says goodbye to the show after six laugh-filled seasons. Tyler opened up to her fellow hosts, Julie Chen, Sara Gilbert, Sharon Osbourne, and Sheryl Underwood, saying that “The treasure of this show is my friendships with you guys, and that is something I could never have expected when I walked in the door here… I never imagined in a million years that it would be this magical of a place.”
The prolific actress is leaving the show to focus full time on her role as Dr. Tara Lewis on CBS’ hit series “Criminal Minds” and to star in and direct feature films.
An emotional Tyler continues, “The thing I’ll take with me from this show is how all of you made me, every day, want to be a better woman, and a better friend, and a better person… you four made me brave, Tyler said on the show. “… you only have yourselves to blame for me leaving this show.”
