After 18 seasons on the air, Corus Entertainment is officially ending its flagship entertainment TV program Entertainment Tonight (ET) Canada.
"The costs of producing a daily entertainment newsmagazine show in a challenging advertising environment have led to this decision," reads the statement from the media company shared to ET's Instagram page.
"We recognize the impact this decision has on the dedicated team who have worked on the show and we thank them for their meaningful contributions over the years," Corus added.
The hour-long, magazine-style program focusing on celebrity gossip and entertainment news began airing on Global TV in 2005. It has been hosted by TV personality Cheryl Hickey since its inception, also boasting regular appearances by entertainment reporters like Sangita Patel, Carlos Bustamantes, Keshia Chanté and Morgan Hoffman.
