Strahan, Sara and Keke ‘canceled by ABC’

ABC are set to cancel Strahan, Sara and Keke according to network insiders.

The talk show, which stars Michael Strahan, Sara Haines and Keke Palmer, is ‘getting the ax,’ multiple sources told Page Six on Thursday. 

The news comes almost one month after Strahan told an ABC/Disney anti-racism symposium he felt he couldn’t ‘speak up or raise his voice’ with ABC executives for fear of being seen as threatening as a black man. 

Strahan, Sara and Keke was replaced in mid-March by daily Coronavirus report Pandemic: What You Need to Know.

A source told Page Six, ‘[Pandemic] was initially supposed to be a two-week experiment and the show did really well.’ 

ABC are now expected to make the lineup change permanent, according to the publication’s sources.

Strahan will still host Good Morning America for the network. 

 Strahan shared his concerns about inequality at the network during an anti-racism symposium on June 4 in front of all ABC and Disney employees and Bob Iger, executive chairman of The Walt Disney Company.

Strahan didn’t specifically name Live with Kelly, on which he served as a co-host from 2012 to 2016, but insiders told Page Six that he was referring to the show. This could shed new light on his falling out with co-host Kelly Ripa when he abruptly left the show and moved to GMA full time.
