Warner Bros.’ The Bonnie Hunt Show will go off the air after the end of this season, sources confirmed Monday night. Hunt gave her staff the official word Monday morning.That the show won’t make it until season three is hardly a surprise. Bonnie Hunt has hovered at a 0.8 live plus same day rating since the show’s launch last September, which isn’t high enough to make a first-run strip work.
The NBC-owned stations bought the show in a two-year deal, which comes to an end after this season.
A possible replacement for the show is the company’s MomLogic, which Warner Bros. is shopping to stations for one year on an all-barter basis.

I hope Bonnie is picked up by another station and comes on a channel we get. I really enjoyed her show and she was one of the best i have seen.

My TV is on all day long but mostly on CNN or MSNBC. Then the local news etc. PBS. The only show I ever tuned into was the Bonnie Hunt show. Just funny and cute with no harm done. She was a natural and I miss that show. Suddenly it was gone. Let's get her back and in maybe another time slot. Say afternoon instead of those crummy coutroom shows with all the idiot low lifes.

A pity. I really enjoyed her show. It was a breath of fresh air amid all the trash being hurled at the viewing audience today. So, we were left to watch Ellen incorporate Her mom into her show ala Helen? No thanks.With networks axing good programming (instead of promoting it nig time) and family entertainment.. we get
mini bites' to which we look forward every week..until the programming is discarded for more of the same old trash viewing. Miss The Good Guys. Were it not for Castle and Blue Bloods, I
d turn the tv off for good in this house (but I Have started turning it off Waay more often)

Aw, that really sucks. I enjoyed Bonnie Hunt! She is the best talk show host ever! I wonder what her next project will be? Hope someone else puts her show back on. :(
