What is replacing The Dr. Oz Show?
After the show's end was announced, Sony's senior vice president and general sales manager Zack Hernandez announced that its hour-long slot would be replaced with The Good Dish.
The Good Dish is known as a food-centric spinoff of one of Oz's segments on the show that was first brought to syndication in 2019 and stars Oz's daughter Daphne, Vanessa Williams, Gail Simmons, and Jamika Pessoa.
"Audiences have been loving what Daphne, Gail and Jamika have been serving up during their weekly segments on 'The Dr. Oz Show' for years," Hernandez said via Variety.
"We have long believed The Good Dish would make an excellent stand-alone series and are delighted to be able to deliver this fresh take on the cooking genre to our station partners and their viewers across the country."
