Busy Philipps announces her show Busy Tonight is being dropped by E!
Busy Philipps became one of the few women with a nighttime talk show when Busy Tonight went on the air October. On Sunday night, the actress and Instagram personality announced that Busy Tonight is looking for a new home, as E! has decided next week is the show's last on its network.
Philipps said she's "hopeful we can find the right place for the show to live on." But if nothing else comes of Busy Tonight, at least she finally got that phone call from Oprah. Peter Weber
