The Talk: Talk Show by Actress Sara Gilbert on CBS



The Talk is a talk show created by actress Sara Gilbert, who also serves as the executive producer. The show premiered on October 18, 2010, and airs on CBS as a part of CBS Daytime. Along with Gilbert, it features Julie Chen as the moderator, Leah Remini, Holly Robinson Peete, and Sharon Osbourne discussing the day's latest headlines while usually tying in the show's theme of motherhood or at least parenthood, such as by giving their opinions "through the eyes of mothers". It also contains celebrity interviews and segments for mothers and/or parents in general.
Marissa Jaret Winokur was originally featured as the "mother on the street", dealing with issues like taking her toddler on an airplane, talking with kids about sex, talking to parents about the "terrible twos", etc; however, she departed from the series mid-season over lack of airtime. Both she and producers of the show came to the decision amicably.
In the four weeks prior to the show's debut, repeats of The Young and the Restless and new episodes of The Price Is Right and Let's Make a Deal (a Guiding Light replacement) aired in the vacated As the World Turns timeslot.
It was announced on January 26th, 2011 that the show was renewed for a second season.
