The Talk is an American talk show that debuted on October 18, 2010, as part of CBS' daytime programming block.[5] The show was developed by actress and host Sara Gilbert.
The show features Sheryl Underwood, Amanda Kloots, Jerry O'Connell, Akbar Gbajabiamila, and Natalie Morales (who serves as moderator). They discuss the latest headlines, current events, and human-interest stories while engaging in open conversation. The original concept theme focused on motherhood, and over time evolved into a broader platform.
The Talk is broadcast before a live studio audience at the CBS Studio Center in Studio City, California, each Monday through Friday at 11:00 a.m. Pacific Time Zone, and airs live on most CBS owned-and-operated station and network affiliates in the Eastern and Central United States at 2:00 p.m. Eastern Time Zone. The show is on a broadcast delay elsewhere from the Mountain Time Zone westward. The Friday shows are recorded on Thursday afternoons at 1:00 pm PT for broadcast the next day. Friday shows are taped before the same studio audience in attendance for the earlier live Thursday broadcast.
On April 12, 2024, CBS announced that The Talk's 15th season would be its final season, and its final episode will air on December 20, 2024.[6] On April 15, 2024, a new soap titled Beyond the Gates was greenlit by CBS and is slated to premiere on February 24, 2025, taking the time slot of The Talk.[7]
