Kelly Clarkson will remain on our TV screens and on the radio for the next few years. NBCUniversal Syndication Studios is giving the pop superstar and “The Voice” coach something to celebrate in 2020. The studio has sold the critically acclaimed, Emmy Award-winning daytime tentpole “The Kelly Clarkson Show” to the NBC Owned Television Stations group for two additional seasons through 2023.
The hourlong daytime program, which currently airs in 100% of the country on more than 200 stations, has already been sold in national syndication to more than 75% of the U.S. for its third and fourth seasons. “The Kelly Clarkson Show” is produced and distributed by the recently renamed NBCUniversal Syndication Studios, which is currently expanding its portfolio.
“The Kelly Clarkson Show” made an unprecedented move to stay in original episodes over the summer. They continued to film remotely from Montana and from Clarkson’s home in Los Angeles during part of the COVID-19 lockdown. The syndicated series returned to its home at the Universal Studios lot to film season two in September.
NBCUniversal gave Clarkson an early season two renewal after the show brought in strong ratings and became the most watched new talk show in seven years, averaging 1.6 million viewers daily and delivering the youngest audience among the top four daytime shows.
“The Kelly Clarkson Show” is hosted by Emmy Award-winning host and Grammy Award-winning artist Kelly Clarkson. The critically acclaimed daytime talk show headed into its second season as the most watched new talk show in seven years. Season two features in-studio guests and a virtual in-studio audience with fans from across the country.
In its first year on the air, “The Kelly Clarkson Show” received three Daytime Emmy wins, more than any other talk show in 2020. Clarkson was named Outstanding Entertainment Talk Show Host and the show also received a Critic’s Choice Award nomination. Showrunner and executive producer Alex Duda received a Gracie Award in 2020, which recognized “The Kelly Clarkson Show” as exemplary programming created by, for and about women.
Clarkson’s “weekday hang” includes a mix of celebrity guests and everyday people, performances, games and her unfiltered perspective on life, relationships, parenting, kids and things that make her laugh her along the way.
