Fans of The Wendy Williams Show can expect new episodes this summer, as producers Debmar-Mercury recently announced that it will run production through July for a second year in a row.
“We believe the ratings strength we’ve seen over the past season and during the May sweeps, despite having weaker lead-ins, is due in part to remaining in year-round production since last summer,” Debmar-Mercury Co-Presidents Mort Marcus and Ira Bernstein commented. “By keeping the lights on throughout June and July, in a quiet period traditionally reserved for first-run shows to take their summer hiatuses, we intend to once again follow a strategy that has worked very well for us this past year.”
Williams' show has been renewed through 2017.
