Ricki Lake Looking to Return to Daytime Talk Show Wars - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

In Albiniak's story about Ricki Lake she writes, "One factor that could be delaying a decision by NBC and CBS on Lake is whether or not Katie Couric is going to shop a talk show for 2012, with neither syndicator wanting to tie up resources before knowing what Couric's decision will be and with whom she will sign....The competition for daytime slots is expected to heat up in 2012, when Oprah will have been off the air for one year. That makes it good timing for Lake, who could work on either traditional affiliates (ABC, CBS, NBC) or on non-traditional stations (Tribune, Fox) depending on her approach and subject matter."

I for one, will be delighted to see her back again! Her topics were so sexy and risque
that just seeing her guests admit up to them was absolutely, poisitively jaw dropping.
She was doing "Maury" before "Maury" was doing "Maury"!
