Frank Cicha, executive VP of programing for the Fox TV Stations said “it’s not easy to find the right fit” for the Sherri timeslot, previously held by the “Wendy Williams Show.”
“Sherri’s mix of professionalism and competitive strength has been a great fit for us, so we’re happy to be bringing her program back,” Cicha added.
In a joint statement, Debmar-Mercury Co-Presidents Ira Bernstein and Mort Marcus said, “We initially sold Sherri for one year based on our strong belief that this extraordinarily talented host would be successful and her show would become a long-term talk franchise,” Bernstein and Marcus said.
“Our thanks go to our good friends and longtime partners at FOX, who shared in our enthusiasm and have renewed their faith in Sherri with this long-term commitment,” the statement continued.
