D.L HUGHLEY’S SHOW CANCELED ON CNN
Funny man D.L Hughley will discontinue his show D.L. Hughley Breaks the News on CNN, but will continue working for the news broadcast company as a contributor:
In a statement, the network said, “D.L. approached CNN about being permanently based in Los Angeles, where his family lives. To accommodate this, we agreed upon a new role where he will be a contributor for the network based in Los Angeles. We are eager to continue our relationship with D.L., who is a tremendous talent and a valued colleague.” SOURCE
No final date for D.L’s show has been set – it will continue to air as scheduled for the rest of this month.
OH GREAT!!! Another reality show!!! We definitely can’t have too many of those!
I watched that D.L. Hughley show once and honestly couldn’t figure out why it was on CNN in the first place. I wish him the best, but that show was terrible.
He has a really good show.
I graduated from SCPA in 2000 and I must say I LOVE this school. Despite having to work in your major most of the classes are college prep and the environment is great!! It’s people from all different backgrounds and I love going back every year for alumni day!! Go SCPA!!!
DL has never been funny to me and his show was embarrassing. I’m glad it was canceled.
i never was a fan of D.L. until this show aired on CNN. sucks that it’s getting cancelled…
spell check: gwen stefani. they’re [no doubt] going on tour this summer…can’t wait for that…
…….DL’s show was alight on CNN, my hubby liked it.
………sooo tired of Kanye.
YAY KANYE…do the damn thing boy!
I don’t even watch american idol like that..the only time i do is for the auditions lol
anywho,
i can’t wait to see TAKING TO THE STAGE. i went to a skool of performing arts and it’s good to see that ppl will be able to see wat its like to be in one. this show is on #1 on my list of shows to see and i’m extra siced to see it air march 19th!!!
Cincinnati stand up!
LOL I had 2 do it
@3 ur soooo lucky..i wish i would’ve heard abt this skool sooner b4 i graduated. i sooo can’t wait to see this air..i’m sooo EXCITED!!
That school seems very positive and very creative. I wish every city had a school like tthis one…..but on the other hand…………..ANOTHER REALITY SHOW….~sigh~
Where are the black sitcoms???
BOOOOO, I actually liked DL Hugley’s show. I wonder if that was the real reason f for stopping it. Michael Steele did make that comment about Rush Limbaugh
on the show it that started off a whole fire storm within the republican party
hmmm………….
do you mean that he will perform heartless? didn’t know kanye had a song called heartbreaker….ha!
I can’t wait to watch the new MTV show. It looks interesting.
I secretly wanted to go to performing arts school…lol
D.L.’s show, gotta say I wasn’t a fan of it. I’m glad he’ll still be a contributor though.
With Kanye on American Idol this week, I just might watch!
i have a beef and this is about entertainment and backlash so on….. after hearing the tjms this am and the way the ceo of barnes and noble came on the radio and finally addressed the issue of the obama display. i could tell off the bat this man was defensive and combative when giving barnes and noble side. of how the monkey book got in the display. you see years ago when the line was drawn in the sand and black folks were told ‘you know your place’ ..and this was regardless of how you were talked to and treated. IT WAS A WOMAN that stepped up and said i’ve had enough. ms. wilkes was asking the legitimate questions, which this person could not handle. and i as a black man took it as an insult about not only the way he explained the way his book store handles these situations, but also the way he talked to ms. wilkes this morning. and right now i as a man will not ever set foot in a barnes and noble store again. and this ain’t about not hearing a apology when your mad. that’s a bullshit excuse for anyone who heard how this person who owns that company approached the subject. even MLK said i’am tired of the marching and he was tired of talking etc….. but he pressed on. but this ain’t about marching or rallies or about getting al shapton he’s got a plate full already. put simply its about blacklisting barnes and noble THIS IS ABOUT PULLING OUR DOLLARS AWAY FROM these places that don’t respect us. and like the lady who was arrested for not going to the back of the bus in south carolina. when the buses finally were desegergated that lady when asked would she get on the bus now and she replied ‘thats ok’ and didn’t set foot on a bus again. as such; i will never set foot or spend my money at barnes and noble again. maybe now i can’t use the words oh its because i’am black….. but because i’am black YOU WILL RESPECT ME and THE BLACK WOMAN WHO SPEAKS UP FOR US “PERIOD”. no matter who it is, so if i have to walk by a barnes and noble i will spit on the window, since they don’t want to take time and monitor their displays. mr. barnes and noble respect our black women when they talk to you. now mr. you have now been tried and convicted for real. all black folks from now on in a barnes and noble you are a house negro and if you are male you are weak and should put on pink panties. iam done w/ the talking , and the fake ass apologies, and the flat out disrespect this man showed people this morning [ms, wilkes] on the tjms. face it italians ain’t never had much respect for [us] anyways. and for anyone who thinks my anger clouded this ‘closet bigot’s’ apology. my message to you is massur calling and need you to polish that silverware real good. eric holder much love . but iam old and tired of talking. 95% of these folks can’t stand us. so its time to stand on our own. so tear them damn cards up and turn your back on this company.we can do this ourselves. al can set this one out. we will hit that azz in the pockets.
D.L. show was out-of-place on CNN.. Would fit better on Comedy Central possibly…
He should pitch the idea to them… maybe they’ll pick it up..
I CAN’T WAIT FOR TAKINF THE STAGE. ONE OF THE MAIN CHARACTERS, TYLER, IS ONE OF MY BEST FRIENDS. HE IS THE BEST DANCER I’VE EVER SEEN HANDS DOWN! PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE WATCH THE SHOW!! SUPPORT MY FRIEND PEOPLE!!!! WATCH THE SHOW!
So glad that DL show is cancelled, it was such an embarrassement. The reasons they gave for it being cancelled is BS. No one was watching it, that’s why it was cancelled.
