Beloved celebrity news staple “Access Hollywood” has been canceled after nearly three decades on the air.
The show will end production as NBCUniversal ditches its first-run syndicated TV programs, the company said in a statement.


“Access Hollywood” — currently hosted by Mario Lopez, Kit Hoover, Scott Evans and Zuri Hall — first aired in September 1996.
NBCUniversal also announced the axing of “Access Live,” “Karamo” and “The Steve Wilkos Show” as part of a major shift away from first-run TV.
