My wife worked in the film industry for a while and has been on a number of sets and met a lot of famous people. Along the way she even hung out with The Rock one time. That said, the impression I get is that the film industry believes they are basically gods among men. At least this is true for the people in power, the people just trying to earn a living were more or less normal people.
I think the film industry seems to attract a bunch of insufferable megalomaniacs. Her boss was completely fucking insane. He made my wife carry two phones at all times so that if one phone was broken or dead he could still get a hold of her. He would call at all hours and if she didn't pick up he would berate her, even fire her, then beg her to come back the next day. He did this too a lot of his top employees. When my wife quit he told my wife that she's a bitch and that she is breaking his heart. She was 7 months pregnant and just could take the 65/70 hour work week anymore...
So in summary, I think Ellen fits right in, or at least her years of stardom have turned her into the monster she is. Hollywood doesn't seem to mind it, and in fact, in some cases they've embraced it.

NGL I used to get really stoned and watch Dr Phil and shit. But even back then (before I really had internet) The View was something I couldn't stand.
I would be in that weird trance mode and not realizing what I'm watching and then suddenly realize it's annoying the shit out of me.

Ex also used to make me watch the Tyra banks show. To Ellen's credit there's a reason why she's been around 20 years and the dozens of day time talkshows greenlit in that era barely made it 5. Probably because she actually had some personality of some sort to bring to the table.

she manipulates women's emotions for views and ratings. Her personality is lit to just be annoying which for some reason women love. She was on the air so long because she was a gay women. She can really go there girlfriend. She does stupid annoying games and dances and shit which I guess resonates with idiots making it insanely popular. She only made it 14 seasons and is prob done here. If you knew someone who acted like her in real life im willing to bet you would want to lit kill her in about 5 minutes.

I think that's exactly why she was initially so popular. 1. a comedian woman that was actually sometimes funny 2. gay... that was a novelty in the early 2000s.
It's not anymore.
I suppose she's lived on in part because the people that used to watch Jerry Springer and Maury and other shit, and hell even Oprah, but don't understand the internet need something to watch... But like I said I fail to see how she's been unique or relevant going into the new (now old) decade.

Ellen's show is loved;
Quote:
hThe show has received 171 Daytime Emmy Award nominations and has won 61 Daytime Emmy Awards as of 2020, including four for Outstanding Talk Show and seven for Outstanding Talk Show Entertainment, surpassing the record held by The Oprah Winfrey Show, which won nine. The show also won 17 People's Choice Awards. The talk show's YouTube channel is in the top 20 most-subscribed YouTube channels.
That's from the Wikipedia. When you are successful like that people tend to turn a blind eye.

There's money and power in the water and true or not the sharks want to feed. One could even see this as the snake eating itself. So many easy analogies.
The media industry is full of assholes and trying to hold the new PC standard up an ethical rulebook would soon see television broadcasting only static. That is until static offends someone and they have to turn it off.
If people were really that upset they'd just stop watching the program, but the reality is that Ellen offers something that daytime tv watching deadheads like. Now people are trying to hold her up to the standards of her screen persona. No one is a single sided entity like that and working long days and long weeks will show all sides of people's personalities sooner or later.
It's amusing watching an industry that is so poisonous self destruct and cannabalise itself.

She needs to be taken off the air so we no longer have to see her sauntering and twirling around our tvs while a bunch of mouth breathers clap to the beat only to hear her spout off about in whats essentially a 30 minute long commercial hosted by some whining disgustingly over paid cuntbag. Think if she was a man she would be in jail at this point are u kidding. But maybe I'm just being too harsh on her and I'm the asshole.

They'll cancel her three year contract and she'll go and enjoy her yacht while all us poor fuckers squander to get by.
I guess she won.

She probably has multiple yachts. And a private jet or three. Her bathroom in her winter home in Aspen is probably worth 10 times more than my little place.
She's worth like 350 million.
