Rosie O’Donnell once said, her job is “mostly to entertain and be funny” – but now, she’s focusing on kindness, too.In a new interview, the 61-year-old reflected on her time in the daytime talk show industry, giving some insight into what really happened behind the scenes.“We had a really wonderful working environment,” O’Donnell claimed of her own production, the “Rosie O’Donnell Show,” which ran from 1996 to 2002, while speaking to Entertainment Tonight.

who died Thursday at 79. Springer was best-known for his namesake syndicated talk show, “The Jerry Springer Show.”People took to Twitter to express their grief and gratitude for the late daytime broadcaster, actor, lawyer and politician, who served as Cincinnati’s 56th mayor in 1977. Springer died peacefully in his home in Chicago, according to a statement from his family as reported by Cincinnati NBC affiliate WLWT5.The cable TV legend produced and hosted “The Jerry Springer” show from September 1991 to July 2018, airing 27 seasons and nearly 5,000 episodes. The tabloid talk show was best known for featuring dysfunctional family drama, frequent feuds bleeped out with obscenities, baby mama/father drama, the occasional nudity and fans roaring the refrain, “Jerry! Jerry! Jerry!” Broadcaster and New York Post columnist Piers Morgan recalled working with Springer on “America’s Got Talent,” whom he regarded as a “warm, funny man” on Twitter.

died Thursday at 79, just as he was settling into a life of happy semi-retirement, more interested in talking about his grandson Richard — a talented baseball player and the light of Jerry’s life — than anything to do with television or his nearly 30-year run as the bemused host of “The Jerry Springer Show.” That’s who Jerry was — the British-born son of Holocaust survivors and a mensch who never took his on-camera persona very seriously.

People published on Friday, as she marked the milestone day. “I just signed a contract so I’ll be here for a while,” the comedian defiantly declared. “I have no plans to retire.”Back in July, ABC told The Post that Behar had inked a new three-year contract that will keep her tied to the network until 2025, refuting a report by the Independent Journal Review that claimed she was gearing up to announce her exit from “The View.”Speaking with People, Behar fawned over the show, touting its longevity and strong ratings.“It’s really, you know, something that is an important show in many ways,” she proclaimed of the program, which she joined back in 1997.

Old episodes are likely to live on in some form, however, with the company saying that “the show has thousands of lively, entertaining and dramatic episodes that will continue to be successful in daytime for years to come.”“I’m so proud of my relationship with NBC Universal and all those who worked on the ‘Maury’ show but as I occasionally tell my guests on ‘Maury,’ enough already,” he said.His show hit upon a successful formula many years ago and has stuck with it: using tests to reveal, on the air, the father of babies where paternity is in question or lie detectors to see if a spouse is cheating or not.It wasn’t highbrow entertainment, but was popular enough for Povich to build a devoted audience among viewers young enough to be his grandchildren.Povich was a television journalist before going into the talk show world, beginning in Washington, where his father, Shirley, was a well-known sportswriter.

most — like order,” she said of what the show brings to fans. “They like people who follow rules, are good citizens and who act responsibly: how they discard their trash, how they put shopping carts in assigned spaces so they don’t fly away.“When you blur the rules, when you say, ‘OK, curfew is at 10,’ and they come in at 11 and nothing happens to them, then the next day it’s midnight … then they know nobody is watching the store and there are no consequences,” she said.

“The Ellen DeGeneres Show” has overhauled its senior production team in the wake of accusations of racial insensitivity, sexual misconduct and other problems in the work environment at the long-running daytime talk show.The news was delivered to “Ellen” staffers Monday afternoon during a staff meeting in which DeGeneres spoke via a videoconference call.Three senior producers — executive producers Ed Glavin and Kevin Leman and co-executive producer Jonathan Norman — have been ousted from the
