DeGeneres is returning to Netflix for the first time since 2018.
In addition to a stand-up tour set to begin next month, award-winning comedian and talk show host Ellen DeGeneres is set to appear on Netflix for what she says will be her final stand-up special. During her new comedy set, DeGeneres will reportedly address the reports of a toxic workplace culture which led to the end of her run on The Ellen DeGeneres Show, the long-running daytime talk show which earned more than 50 Daytime Emmy Awards during its 19 years on the air.
"There is nobody quite like Ellen," said Robbie Praw, VP of Stand-Up and Comedy Formats at Netflix."She is a true legend and pioneer in so many ways. We can't wait to bring fans another one of her hilarious comedy specials later this year." DeGeneres rose to fame as a stand-up comedian and actor in the 1990s, culminating in a major pop culture moment when the title character from her sitcom Ellen came out as a lesbian, making her the first mainstream TV lead to do so. The moment became instantly iconic, but Ellen was over within about a year afterwards. In 2001, she unsuccessfully tried to launch another sitcom, The Ellen Show, before finally heading into the talk show space with The Ellen DeGeneres Show starting in 2003.
