E. V., Oh No! 'Rachael Ray Show' in Danger

Posted by Adam Kuban, March 13, 2008

The New York Post reports that the Rachael Ray Show may be axed:

The problem is Ray's ratings. When she debuted two years ago, she had a meager 2.5 rating, which her syndicator, King World, nonetheless trumpeted as "The biggest syndicated debut since 'Dr. Phil.' " In fact, one insider said, "They had hoped for more. 'Dr. Phil' beats 'Oprah' and gets like a 5.0 rating—and Rachael's set is very expensive and elaborate; his is just chairs."

While the Post speculates that Marie Osmond (are you kidding me?!!?) might step into the vacuum, reps for the Ray's show deny the rumor.
