So, are you upset that The Bonnie Hunt show got cancelled by NBC?
How could you cancel this show. Bonnie is great! The show is funny, Bonnie is real, and it is so nice to have a show that is a bit different from the other daytime shows. I would watch Bonnie over Oprah, Ellen, and Dr. Phil. Please re-think this. You are canceling a good show, way tooooo soon.
I am sad to hear that Bonnie Hunt Show may be cancelled. We loved her show, and the family atmosphere that she had with all of her crew. And, of course her mom, Alice.
It’s a shame that we are being left with shows that promote dysfunction and verbally or physically abusing one another.
I still think the execs should grab a cup of coffee and sit down and watch the Bonnie Hunt Show. Try being happy for a change. We do. Happiness and respect for others isn’t a bad way to live. Just ask Alice.
Bonnie is so funny and I love the relaxed attitude of the show. She would be great as an evening talk show host. The choices we have in the evening are ridiculous. She reminds me of Johhny Carsons type of humor. You are canceling a very entertaining show.

Try giving her show a different time slot…….
I will miss her.
Bonnie Hunt has one of the better talks shows, It will be a sad day when she is gone. I hope they think more about this before canceling her.
Bonnie Hunt show is my very very favourite afternoon show ever.
Love her and her show, she’s real. Watch her everyday, she always puts a smile on my face. Please don’t cancel her show, I think it is one of the best!!!
Canceling her show is hugh mistake. Bonnie Hunt is awesome. I’m not a talk show watcher but I look forward to her show. I’m totally disappointed in this network.
I am going to miss this show more than anything else I watch!!! Bonnie makes me laugh daily! She will be missed in my household!
I think NBC does not know what they are doing! Bonnie Hunt is such a wondrful person, and TV land needs! There is so much crap on TV/Cable – why can’t there be room for good honest entertainment?! Instead, we get reality TV crap, and ET news about gossip (gossip TV), who cares! Bonnie loves people and animals and she is such a joy to watch! I can go on and on…. Bonnie will be missed. NBC please re-think your strategy,
How could you cancel Bonnie Hunt show. She brings a refreshing show a friendly show and gives an excellent showing of what a fun and an indepth picture of America.
You want to cancel a show ! Make it Ellen DeGeneres, she ngives us nothing.
Why would you cancel a show that is so much fun to watch. I love watching and she has a good cast and funny items. What are you goina stick us with now.
Why did NBC change the time of Bonnie Hunt’s show to be opposite Oprah and then cancel it.
With all the terribe shows on TV, Bonnie’s was a good one.
Maybe Bonnie should get picked up by ABC in Oprah’s old spot. That would be great for everyone!
It is a huge mistake that this show is done. Does everything on TV have to be tasteless & scandalous to be sucessful? Shows about disfunctional individuals strung out on drugs and alcohol….who cares!! How about true, honest, down to earth shows like Bonnie? She is a unique person & will be missed. Huge mistake NBC. I guess if the show isn’t producing 6 figure incomes to those who benefit from it, it must mean the show is garbage….sense the sarcasm? I doubt if there will ever be anothershow like this. Once again….huge mistake!!
It’s funny how we cancel all the good, clean, holsum, happy and positive shows, and keep the smutty, disfunctional, negative crappy reality/talk shows on,,,,,,,,,what is it really that we want to put out there for our children. Think about what tv has become compared to what it used to be,..TRASH!
Ditto all of the above…I look forward to my sick days and my tivo because Bonnie is the tops. Maybe there is a network that will appreciate her more and put her where more people will enjoy her….c’mon networks, step up!!!!!!!!!!
i am saddened to learn of the show’s cancellation. my husband is so far a cancer survivor. the show was a stable in our very hectic lives while he was receiving treatment. she is a caring, top notch professional. we need this kind of show on tv. i hope the top brass re-considers this!
What a real tragedy, taking Bonnie’s show off the air. I’d sooner see her sit and talk to her Mom than to see the boring, over-done Ellen dancing all the time. A nice, wholesome show gave our mornings a needed lift and we will all miss her. Shame on the network for cancelling her !!!
The Bonnie Hunt show is good T.V. Is that a misnomer?
Marshall Mc Luhan’s words of T.V. being a vast wasteland keeps coming true.
Bonnie’s show is honest and funny. True entertainment. I cannot imagine anything better that you might have to replace it. I feel like I am losing a friend.
So sorry to hear of Bonnie Hunt show cancellation. She’s as good as anyone on TV, funny, honest and real – really gotta love her. She does a great job with guests and has a wonderful way with an audience.
maybe something at night?
[…] The Bonnie Hunt show gets cancelled (Confirmed) […]
I’m stunned that Bonnie’s show is being cancelled.What about another time slot or network. Just a great show and she is so real.
I can’t believe NBC would cancel such an entertaining, funny, endearing, and all around likable person. Please, please rethink this awful and unwise decision to cancel her show. She provides comic relief for those who truly need it…
What a waste! This was a great show. What’s the matter with
you people? Get it back on the air asap.
Bonnie Hunt show was a great show. Bonnie is so funny and interesting. Why do good shows get taken off and others go on and should be taken off. Put Bonnie back on,
very sad to see the show go. it was a joy to watch. to chime in with other responses,clean wholesome ,entertaining fun. instead networks chose to air and title shows like bleep my dad says.
bonnie had a show that was funny, decent, entertaining and interesting guests – not too much on tv like that anymore – hope she comes back.
I’m just finding out now that the show was cancelled. I’m so disappointed to hear this. If I was out sick, I’d watch. The show had a decency & kindness to it. And of course, anything like that must be pulled off the air if the rates are on the lower side. If it’s not sensationalism & people aren’t bouncing off the walls, then it goes.
