HLN has cancelled Dr. Drew. The show’s last telecast will go out September 22, 2016, before dining with the reaper.
CNN executive vice president Ken Jautz said in a statement:
“Dr. Drew and his team have delivered more than five years of creative shows, and I want to thank them for their hard work and distinctive programming.”
Pinsky, who will remain a contributor within CNN Worldwide, said of his departure:
“It has been a privilege working at HLN. My executive producer Burt Dubrow and our outstanding staff and contributors were consistently exceptional. I am very excited to stay within the CNN Worldwide family as a contributor.”
The cancellation of Dr. Drew comes days after CNN Legal View host Ashleigh Banfield revealed she’s moving to HLN this fall to helm a new prime-time show.
RIP.

This guy is a total jerk! He diagnoses Hillary Clinton based on right wing trash talk, what quack he is IMO.

This guy was brilliant.
Too bad Left Wing politics controls this station, and he’s paying for it by pointing out the obvious medical issues of her highness – which anyone who can apply a bandage could recognise.
Very Orwellian!
