‘Wendy Williams’ Syndie Show Goes National

Aug 18, 2008  •  Post A Comment

Following a summer test run, “The Wendy Williams Show” is poised to go national with the Fox Television Stations agreeing to launch the Debmar-Mercury-distributed series in mid-2009.
“Everything about the Wendy preview clicked for our stations, from conception to promotion to hitting the air,” said Frank Cicha, senior vice president of programming for Fox Television Stations. “It completely broke the mold. The show is now a proven winner, and we can’t wait to see it debut across the country next year.”
Fox’s owned and operated station group is comprised of 27 stations in 18 markets and covers nearly 37.34% of homes with television in the U.S.
“The Wendy Williams Show” will conclude its six-week preview this Friday. During the trial, it ran in New York (WNYW-TV), Los Angeles (KTTV-TV), Dallas (KDFW-TV) and Detroit (WJBK-TV).
“Wendy is an extraordinary talent who has attracted the strongest ratings for a new offering in years and generated enormous buzz around the country—unheard of for a show airing only in four markets,” Ira Bernstein, co-president of Debmar-Mercury, said in a statement. “We are grateful to Fox for believing in Wendy as much as we do.”

  3. Love Wendy williams… Her boldness and her reality is such a breathe of FRESH Air. Even if she gossips..who doesn’t and she is bold enough to admit what she has said…Love her and love her show, just wish I could watch it daily, but I only see Friday’s show when I work from home. Would love to get tickest for a live taping, even if I am 57 years old!!! You go Wendy ” How you Doin?”

  4. I am not one of those crazy fan people, as I am over 40 years old, but I LOVE LOVE LOVE your show. I have been a Wendy listner for many years, and I must tell you that as for my husband and myself we are hooked. My husband was on vacation when the TV show started and he began watching and taped the shows to watch with me at night. Well let me tell you I miss you already, you make us laugh and talk about your crazy —. I know you’ll go all the way, as long as you keep it real, just like you started. love and kisses from Joane & Edgar. P.S. I wish you the best of luck Queen of All Media.

  5. Stupid is often as stupid does…this whole thing is really a joke. Lindsay Lohan is going onto do illegal drugs because of the fact this girl doesn’t “get it”…The complete court procedure is a faiytale. Why don’t you put the girl in some prison in Cincinnati or someplace else in Ohio where there is no overcrowding then there is no absurd program that repeatedly lets these people get away with ****. At any rate if this lady will probably continue to do harmful drugs she should really be “wise” about it and not just get caught…otherwise, continue with what you are doing Lindsay lohan and let us get rid of you inside of Afghanistan with the extremely daring soldiers who’re losing their life day-to-day to provide your ignorant so-called “freedom”.

  6. WingNutbag Sharron Angle takes advantage of twilight zone illusion scare tactics in hopes of pressuring votes of ignorant seniors.

  7. My Christian teachings tell me Jesus needs us to show other cheek. Thankfully we have been a country that divides the church and state; its about time we as People in america just advise Ahmadinejad to go to hell. For the UN, I’d go for my tax money sent on The Bridge to No Where. As a minimum we would have something to show for it.

  8. Sharron Angle says Islamic Law Establishing itself In Regions of This country , I think the girl means the Whitehouse!!!!.

  15. Between me and my husband we’ve owned more MP3 players over the years than I can count, including Sansas, iRivers, iPods (classic & touch), the Ibiza Rhapsody, etc. But, the last few years I’ve settled down to one line of players. Why? Because I was happy to discover how well-designed and fun to use the underappreciated (and widely mocked) Zunes are.

  16. I love your blog.. very nice colors & theme. Did you create this website yourself or did you hire someone to do it for you? Plz reply back as I’m looking to create my own blog and would like to know wheere u got this from. thanks
