Which season do you prefer - the final season of "Ellen" or the single season of her next sitcom "The Ellen Show."

I like how in "The Ellen Show" she's gay but it's not the main focus of the series. It's a shame the show didn't last longer than one season.

my vote is for "The Ellen Show" however I like the entire series of "Ellen" more.

Well, I have never seen Ellen Seasons 4&5, but I do have Ellen on dvd Seasons 1-3. I also just got, and alomost finished with "The Ellen Show" on dvd. I think "The Ellen Show" is very good, and I can't see why it lasted only 1 season. I also like The Entire "Ellen" series, better than "The Ellen Show", but "The Ellen Show" is good too.

I liked "The Ellen Show" better. I just finished the first disc today. My favorite episode was Missing the Bus.

I have never seen "The Ellen Show" but I really didn't like season 5 of "Ellen" because it didn't have Paige, Spencer and Joe in it much and concentrated on her relationship with that annoying woman.

I agree. The show wasn't really funny anymore, and it was all about Ellen's new orientation. All the other characters were barely in the show anymore.

I don't think The Ellen Show lasted because it was on Friday nights. Not a great night for sitcoms at all. I thought the show was great. Ellen Season 5 is my least favorite, although there are some gems like the Emma episode is very hilarious.

It premiered in September of 2001, and I don't think people were in the mood to laugh at much of anything that month. I think a lot of us were still watching the news channels more than anything else. Just a thought.
