The Dr Oz Show is set to end next month and will air its final episode on January 14, 2022. The announcement comes amid longtime host Dr Mehmet Oz’s decision to run for Pennsylvania Senate as a Republican representative.

The program will be replaced by the cooking show The Good Dish hosted by Dr Oz’s daughter, Daphne Oz. She will be joined by Top Chef Judge Gail Simmons and Next Food Star winner Jamika Pessoa.

Zack Hernandez, SVP and General Sales Manager, U.S. Syndication Sales, Sony Pictures Television, confirmed the news through an official announcement:

“Audiences have been loving what Daphne, Gail and Jamika have been serving up during their weekly segments on The Dr Oz Show for years. We have long believed The Good Dish would make an excellent stand-alone series and are delighted to be able to deliver this fresh take on the cooking genre to our station partners and their viewers across the country."

The Good Dish initially started as a weekly cooking segment of The Dr Oz Show and will now premiere as a stand-alone program on January 17, 2021.

The Dr Oz Show began in 2009 and helped celebrity physician Dr Oz gain immense recognition in the media industry. However, the host has now decided to venture into politics and officially launched his campaign as a Republican candidate earlier this month.

According to People, the Federal Communications Commission reportedly mentioned that it is necessary for candidates running for office to have equal air time. Hence, running The Dr Oz Show became a potential issue.

The Dr Oz Show was reportedly renewed for its 13th and 14th seasons through 2022 and 2023 but will now go off air after a 13 season run.
