Why it matters: The Kelly Clarkson Show's nominations celebrate a beloved show that brought joy and connection to countless viewers, leaving a legacy of entertainment and positive impact.

Well, it seems The Kelly Clarkson Show is bowing out with a bang, not a whimper. The talk show, which has been a daytime staple since 2019, just snagged a whopping 11 Daytime Emmy nominations. Let that satisfying number sink in.

That's the most nominations for any talk show this year, which is a pretty impressive mic drop for a show in its final season. Because, yes, Kelly Clarkson announced back in February that the seventh season would be its last. Apparently, she's decided to pivot to focusing on her children, River and Remington, after the passing of her ex-husband, Brandon Blackstock.
