NBCUniversal will lay off more than three dozen staffers who worked on E!’s entertainment shows “Daily Pop” and “Nightly Pop,” which were canceled last month. The move is due to a larger restructuring effort of the cable channel to create a centralized Terrace Studios that will share production efforts across E!

“Daily Pop” will end its five-year run mid-September, while “Nightly Pop” will end its four-year run in early October. Starting in late October, a new show will debut on E! and involve the hiring of new staffers, though only a portion of the number being let go, according to Business Insider, which first reported the news of the layoffs.

E! has canceled its three New York-based entertainment news programs — E! News, Pop Of The Morning and In The Room, Deadline has confirmed.
E! News, Pop Of The Morning and In The Room paused production in March at the onset of the coronavirus pandemic. They had remained dark ever since, leading to their cancellation.
I hear the reasons were financial. All divisions of NBCUniversal have been asked to look for ways to cut costs and produce content more efficiently as the company — like most entertainment congloms — grapples with the economic impact from the pandemic.

NBC News Chief Noah Oppenheim announce Tammy Filler’s replacement As Ep of Today’s fourth hour, starring Hoda Kotb and Jenna Bush, via a memo to staff:
Dear Colleagues,
As you saw announced yesterday, Tammy Filler is headed to the west coast to join our sister network E! in a brand new role as Evp and Editor-In-Chief of E! News. Tammy has been with Today for 16 years, where she spent the last decade running the fourth hour. She helped create an iconic hour of television, and E! is lucky to get such a seasoned vet. While we will certainly miss Tammy at Today, as the fourth hour evolves, the timing is perfect for her to make this big move.
And I am thrilled to announce that Joanne Lamarca is returning to Today as Executive Producer of the fourth hour. It’s a homecoming for Joanne who spent nearly 30 years at Today,...
