Ricki Lake's talk show won't be back

Ricki Lake's return to daytime talk television is no more, TheWrap.com reports. Twentieth Television announced Monday that "The Ricki Lake Show," which premiered in September (and airs locally at 5 p.m. weekdays on WPIX/11), will not continue into the 2013-14 season. Though Lake, who hosted a popular talk show from 1994 to 2003, brought experience as well as familiarity to the new gig, she re-entered the arena at a time that saw considerable competition from new talk shows hosted by the likes of Katie Couric, Steve Harvey and Jeff Probst.
