Jeff Probst, Ricki Lake Talk Shows Set for Canada’s Global

TORONTO: The daytime lineup of Global in Canada will feature the additions of The Jeff Probst Show and The Ricki Lake Show starting this fall.

The Jeff Probst show is a one-hour talk show led by Survivor‘s multiple Emmy Award winner. Topics will range from relationships and family dynamics to newsmakers of the day and individuals facing challenges. The Ricki Lake Show marks a return to television for the actress. Lake previously hosted her own talk show. This time around, she will cover topics of interest to modern-day women.

"For over a decade, Jeff has been holding center court at Tribal Council and he’s still as engaging as ever. Jeff’s charisma and ability to connect with others is why audiences fell in love with him on Survivor and why they’ll follow him to daytime," commented Barb Williams, the senior VP of content at Shaw Media. "Equally impressive, we have the incomparable Ricki Lake back in the talk show genre. Although Ricki has grown up in the Hollywood spotlight, she has always maintained herself as a relatable celebrity figure. This fall, Ricki returns with a whole new set of life experiences and true to form, she is eager to share them with her audience."
