'The Soup' Canceled After 22 Seasons

"The Soup" will no longer be dishing up pop culture snark.

E! announced that the long-running clip show will end after 22 seasons on Friday, Dec. 18. The show began its life in 1991 as "Talk Soup" with host Greg Kinnear. The network revamped and renamed the show in 2004 when current host Joel McHale took over.

"The Soup" skewered everything in pop culture, from reality personalities to talk shows, and McHale memorably spoofed actor David Caruso many times.

"We are incredibly proud of the long-running success of 'The Soup.' 'The Soup' has delivered countless laughs and unforgettable episodes, and we are grateful to the talented team's fearless wit and clever approach week after week," said Jeff Olde, EVP of programming and development for E! in a statement. Joel took the show to new heights for more than a decade, and his irreverent humor and unique brand of comedy as captured so perfectly on 'The Soup' will be missed."
