The Talk is an American talk show that aired on CBS from October 18, 2010, to December 20, 2024. The show was developed by actress and host Sara Gilbert, who served as a co-host for the first nine seasons.
The show featured Sheryl Underwood, Amanda Kloots, Jerry O'Connell, Akbar Gbaja-Biamila, and Natalie Morales (who served as moderator). They discussed 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 was 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 aired 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 was on a broadcast delay elsewhere from the Mountain Time Zone westward. The Friday shows were recorded on Thursday afternoons at 1:00 pm PT for broadcast the next day. Friday shows were 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 last season. Three days later, 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.[6] The final episode aired on December 20, 2024.[7] 2,993 episodes were produced.
