Earlier this year, the Los Angeles native announced that her daytime TV talk show would end in 2022 and explained that as a "creative person," the show no longer posed a challenge for her.

The "Finding Dory" star added that despite the long-running show coming to an end with season 19, she promised viewers that she and her team would deliver “a fantastic final season.”

It will be a season where I truly get to say, "Thank you. Thank you all.” Every day will be a celebration; there will be a lot of surprises,” DeGeneres teased at the time.

The writer and producer had a long reign as a daytime's top entertainment talk show host and has bagged several Daytime Emmy Awards.
