The Montel Williams Show

The Montel Williams Show (also known as Montel) is a syndicated talk show hosted by Montel Williams. nOn January 30, 2008 it was announced that The Montel Williams Show would stop production on new episodes at the end of the 2007-2008 television season after seventeen years. A rerun package offered by Montel's distributor, CBS Television Distribution, was sold into syndication for the 2008-2009 season, and reruns also aired on Black Entertainment Television (BET).nIn its early years, Montel was similar to most tabloid talk shows.

Multiple sclerosis is also a frequent topic.nMost...
