The Arsenio Hall Show has been canceled after one season, according to Variety.
CBS, which broadcast the program, put an end to the show after its first season because the program was no longer deemed financially viable, the story says.
“Unfortunately, The Arsenio Hall Show will not return for a second season,” CBS said in a statement, according to Variety. “While there are many loyal fans of the show, the series did not grow its audience enough to continue. Arsenio is a tremendous talent and we’d like to thank him for all the hard work and energy he put into the show. We’d also like to thank Tribune and all our station group partners for their support of the show.”
The initial run of Hall’s show was in the late 1980s and early 1990s.
In February, Hall featured an interview with Suge Knight, who said that the record industry woes he saw early in his career continue to have an effect on today’s rappers.
“The deals are still messed up,” Suge said. “I think it’s unfair if you really look at it, if you look at Interscope, the two guys from Compton—Game, Kendrick Lamar—got two of the worst deals in the industry. And when you look at it, it’s not so much the production company fault, but what people don’t realize is that if you’re on Universal, it’s the ship. Then Interscope get they cut, thenAftermath get they cut, then G-Unit get they cut. Then the guy who really has Game signed, it was another production company, then it came to Game. The reality is there’s more slavery now than ever.” While Hall checked Knight’s statement—and later quipped “12 Years A Rapper”—the record exec touted some industry deals as “worse.” “When you were a slave you knew it was bad,” he said. “When you was a slave, you was like, ‘Shit, it’s bad.’ But it’s worse when somebody make you be a celebrity and put you on a status and you thanking a person for stabbing you in the back.”

Is anyone surprised here? Hes terrible at it
ARE YOU 9
I really liked the original show and enjoyed his comeback. Sad to see it cancelled already
Stfu bitch ass hater he was great fuck white people!!!!!!
typical nigga response
He was good back in the day but he should have stayed gone. I gave his comeback a chance and I have never seen a talk show host conduct so many awkward interviews in my life. His jokes were horrible too. So long Arsenio.
CRAB IN A BARREL
So with all the youtube videos he got for those interviews, it was cancelled. White people always on some hating shit.
FACTS
bullshh#+.. White people would love to keep getting their money if his ratings were good. They are stupid. Let’s not blame Whites for every dumb thing.
“White people always on some hating shit…..” The same people who brought him back after 20 years are more than likely the ones who cancelled the show. Get a life racist lowlife moron.
135, 308 subscribers on youtube and show was cancelled. Something is fishy?!!
Negro I can by 100,000 subscribers for $500.00 SMH . WAKE UP
Dr Phil 84, 452 subs Arsenio Hall 135, 308 subscribers. So what does CBS mean by it didn’t garner an audience. Another bigger Tv network will pick up Arsenio’s show
youtube subscribers is not everything, im pretty sure you can buy them just like twitter followers…
Dr. Phil is on in the morning when no one really cares what’s on tv. Hall was on during peak hours of the night.
It’s not about YouTube subscribers. TV is still mostly about how many people actually watch the show when it’s aired. I could break it down, but I don’t feel like it.
YouTube does means something, but not as much as original air time ratings…at least not yet.
F**k Em, even though Diddy is a wanker I reckon Revolt or Oprah should pick this up. We gotta really start supporting our own
FAXT !
who is OUR OWN??? U mean american’s, humans, world citizens? Please don’t bring race into it. You real do look dumb if you do
I know death is promised/I don’t fear getting mercked/it’s when a nigga halfway kills you/homie it hurts. 50 Cent
Shit flopped lol
Arsenio is really not a good person. SO karma wins again!
why?
cuz he’s a proven uncle tom with negative and selfish social traits
Like a lot of people in the entertainment industry, they hide there true colors to get better ratings. But we see right through this ass. He is absolutely talented in some ways, but as far as being a good humanitarian. He’s just not. so fuck him!
Arsenio Hall Show was straight garbage! so so so awful I watched it and was NOT IMPRESSED
FUCK YOU……….. NUFF SAID
SAYS NUFF….YOU FUCK
this is sad but it was bound do happen. I fuckin loved the show cuz of the hiphop acts he’d get on but there was no way the rappers he got on would pull in the numbers wack asses like justin bieber would pull in on fallon or some shit.
the show belonged on BET imo
TRU
Production costs are high or his show tho
Justin Bieber and his ilk usually aren’t invited on shows like these, IIRC-it’s usually musicians like Arcade Fire or TV on The Radio that do.
He is better than most talk show hosts. Disappointing news.
lol not even close
who you like. jimmy try hard kimmel? jimmy suck up fallon? lol. okay bro.
it’s a damn shame because it was a good show. they just needed better writers for the show cause the humor on it was so bad. The show had good interviews with a variety of guests and great performances though. All blame goes to the awful writers of the show
agreed
Cancel the writers ya dig
Lower the production costs.
Keep the Show Man.
Contact the network start a petition
Didn’t know Arsenio is hip hop.
Well many of his guests are / were hip hop artists so….
Ross gets another show cancelled LOL, just like Magic City on Starz.
Don’t forget to check out 50 Cent’s new show POWER premiering next weekend on starz.
Arsenio is a corny host, especially now, and nobody cares, that’s why the show is cancelled. Surprised it even ran again for one season after all these years.
he had on the show what fallon, kimmel, rogen, conan, letterman didn’t, the writers and producers should have saw that and tweaked his show, maybe like bill maher with performances as an example
if you’re gonna claim corny, conan, kimmel, leno are/were corn too
and if you don’t think race plays a part in media you’re out of your rabbit ass mind
So funny how these people still use race in 2014. If you hate someone for skin collar you must admit to yourself you just aren’t that smart.
Its not to late!!! Start loving yourself then you MAYBE can love another!
the system doesn’t have the capability to express a human feeling dude
when they were teaching colorblind they weren’t teaching how not to perpetuate the discriminative system
“If you hate someone for skin COLLAR”
And you still have the nerve to say other “aren’t that smart”
Fuckin pussy ass anonymous sometimes people dont have the time or want or care to proof fucking read everything just cuz you had to sound out words to read then chritisize spelling makes you a dumb fucking hillbilly stupid ass
Chritisize? Wow.
