The Wendy Williams Show is such a fun hate-watch: It'll be sorely missed during its coronavirus hiatus

"I don’t particularly like Wendy Williams, nor do I agree with literally anything that comes out of her mouth," says Joan Summers. "But amidst the broad swathe of daytime television, she is the only show that consistently delivers a narrative, a scandal, something juicy to rail against and fight about with strangers on Twitter and in comment sections. For a medium that claims to lead the national conversation each morning, it could be said that Wendy is the only host actually bringing people together. This isn’t to discount her pantheon of spectacularly ill-informed opinions, of which there are many. But in her absence, I truly fear for the gossip industry. In her own way, she’s an anti-force to the ever-encroaching wave of syrupy People write-ups about Kristen Cavallari or the hordes of faceless Bachelor contestants. Sort of like the physics principle they always quote in movies: “Any action receives an equal and opposite reaction.”
