As a seasoned cinephile with a penchant for daytime television and a soft spot for shows that resonate with their audience, I can’t help but feel a pang of nostalgia as I reflect on the impending farewell of “The Talk”. Having followed its journey since its inception in 2010, it has been an integral part of my daily routine, providing a much-needed respite and a dose of joyfulness that’s hard to come by in today’s fast-paced world.
After spending a year and a half saying farewell to “The Late Late Show With James Corden,” Rob Crabbe is preparing for another goodbye as he concludes his tenure as executive producer of “The Talk” this Friday.
The upcoming show is unique in its farewell, yet shares some resemblance with traditional sign-offs. As Eric Crabbe explained to EbMaster, “The underlying sentiment behind what these shows aimed to achieve remains consistent.” He continued, “We’re trying to evoke happiness and stir emotions. With ‘The Talk’, we provide a brief reprieve from the daily grind, offering a routine that brings laughter and camaraderie on television. This emotional bond will be missed by many viewers.
After 15 years on air, ‘The Talk’ concludes this Friday with a special live farewell episode. As Crabbe mentioned, the focus will be on reminiscing about the show’s past and honoring its hosts – Akbar Gbajabiamila, Amanda Kloots, Natalie Morales, Jerry O’Connell, and Sheryl Underwood. The only exception to this retrospective is that Howie Mandel, a frequent guest on ‘The Talk’, will make a final appearance to pay tribute to the hosts.
Crabbe mentioned that a friend of the show who has been around for a long time is coming to catch the hosts off guard with some exceptional compliments they’ve prepared. Additionally, Crabbe believes it’s crucial to acknowledge the team and crew behind the scenes who make the show possible. So, expect some tributes in the program too. As this marks the end of an era for our daytime viewers and staff members, I wouldn’t be surprised if there are a few emotional moments,” said Crabbe.
In the concluding episode, a retrospective montage will be shown, reflecting on Underwood’s long-standing tenure within the show, having started in Season 2 back in 2011. This week, “The Talk” has been honoring each of its hosts individually, one after another.
Crabbe remarks, “This show boasts a rich past, and reaching 15 seasons is quite astonishing to comprehend. As we approach the finale week, it’s crucial to shine the spotlight on our hosts. To accomplish this, we’ve been dedicating entire segments to each host, surprising them with a previously unseen retrospective video, and capturing their reactions. We’ve been presenting these in reverse chronological order, starting from when they first joined the show. On the finale day, Sheryl’s retrospective will be our final segment. She has been with us the longest and I believe it’s heartwarming to see them relive their journey on the show almost as it happened.
Crabbe intends to provide ample time in the final episode for the hosts to ponder the impact of “The Talk” on them, as well as to bid farewell. He expresses, “In the finale, I aimed to create a thoughtful atmosphere for the hosts. I believe they’ll each have something significant to share about their journey, how it has affected them, and what this experience has meant to them.
The conversation known as “The Talk” started back in 2010, sparked by an idea from Sara Gilbert, one of the original hosts alongside Julie Chen Moonves, Sharon Osbourne, Leah Remini, Holly Robinson Peete and Marissa Jaret Winokur. Since then, Aisha Tyler, Eve, Carrie Ann Inaba, Marie Osmond, and Elaine Welteroth have also taken turns hosting. Despite no plans for former hosts to appear in the finale, they will be featured in highlight reels instead.
“You’ll see imagery, certainly of other hosts in these highlight packages,” he says. “But we don’t have any plans for any surprise appearances by past hosts. Also a lot of clips feature the former hosts, it was their show as well. And we want to be respectful to the entire run of the show. All the work that’s gone into it and all these past seasons with all those other hosts. So it’ll be a full look back at everything.”
Crabbe has mentioned that emotions have been running high on set recently, especially since the cast and crew are beginning to understand that “The Talk” is coming to an end.
He mentions one thing that stood out to him is the significant impact the show has on its viewers and the studio audience. He notes that this group is incredibly dedicated, and the emotional response has been overwhelming. There are even couples who met in the audience and ended up getting married, which he tries to highlight in the show. Many people credit the program for reigniting joy in their lives during difficult times.
It’s unclear if they fully realized the impending end, but now it’s undeniably clear, and as a result, we have our studio audience shedding tears daily,” he notes. “This show holds significant importance for many people. I believe its absence will be deeply felt in this realm.
This week, the show has been focusing on their upcoming goodbye, and added a touch of humor by pretending to reenact famous series finales such as “Seinfeld”, “The Sopranos” and “The Bob Newhart Show” in their opening scene.
Starting from next year, “The Talk” will be swapped out with a fresh soap opera titled “Beyond the Gates.” This exciting new series is set to debut on February 24th.
