The Ellen DeGeneres Show, often shortened to Ellen, is an Emmy Award winning syndicated television talk show hosted by actress/comedian Ellen DeGeneres and distributed by Warner Bros. Television. The show features interviews with celebrities and members of the public, comedic monologues by the host and music performances. The premise of Ellen is similar to other daytime television talk shows, such as The Rosie O'Donnell Show. The program combines comedy, celebrity and musical guests and human-interest stories. The program is not characterized as a tabloid talk show, nor does it involve experts giving advice in regards to personal relationships.

Info

The show was nominated for 11 Daytime Emmy Awards its first season, winning four, including Best Talk Show. It gained 12 nominations in its second season and won 6 Emmys, including Best Talk Show and Talk Show Host. Ellen DeGeneres Show has been renewed through the 2010-2011 season. Since the beginning of its run, the show has been taped in Studio 11 at NBC Studios in Burbank, California. The show will be filmed in high definition from Stage 1 at Warner Bros. Studios in Burbank, California starting with its sixth season, beginning September 8, 2008.

As in The Rosie O'Donnell Show, DeGeneres often has audience participation games where prizes are awarded. During her Twelve Days of Giveaways promotion, she gives about $1,000 worth of prizes to each member of the studio audience (and a handful of home viewers as well) for 12 days in a row leading up to Christmas. Because the show has become so popular, not all who arrive hoping to see a taping can fit into the studio, so an off-shoot space referred to as "The Riff Raff Room" was created. Persons seated here are often referenced and shown briefly on camera but watch the taping from off-stage.

Ellen has also helped many non-famous people attain their 15 minutes of fame by having them as guests on the show. Guests in this role have included intelligent children, the owner of a small shop called "Mostly Moose and More", a flea market owner who raps in his commercials, and a male audience member who refused to dance, named Carl by Ellen based on the way he looks, while his real name is Jim. Most recently there has been Lisa Barnum, who attempted to step on Ellen's coffee table aggravating her back injury; in several later episodes Ellen jokingly blames Lisa for her back injury.

The show will be moving to Warner Bros. studios for its sixth season due to the NBC lot being sold. The season finale of season five, aired on May 28, 2008, was the last show taped on the NBC lot.

On November 19, 2007, the show celebrated its 700th episode, even though the actual 700th show was over a month earlier.
