The Insider Canceled After 13 Seasons
The ET spin-off's current season will be its last
The Insider, the syndicated entertainment newsmagazine show, is out.
The Debbie Matenopoulos and Louis Aguirre-hosted Entertainment Tonight spin-off has been canceled, TVGuide.com has confirmed. Its current 13th season will wrap in September.
Staffers were informed of the cancellation Tuesday morning.
The Insider premiered in 2004 as a complement to flagship Entertainment Tonight in the 7-to-8 p.m. hour on local CBS affiliates. It features celebrity and entertainment news, interviews and red-carpet coverage.
The Insider has cycled through different formats and titles during its run -- it was known as omg! Insider from 2013 to 2014. The show has struggled in ratings; among entertainment newsmagazines, only Extra rates lower.
