Tamron Hall More Difficult Than Ellen Ever Was According To Staffers

Tamron Hall's daytime talk show has garnered significant viewership for ABC, but recent reports suggest that the working environment behind the scenes may be less than ideal. Former staffers and insiders have described the atmosphere as "toxic," with some even comparing it unfavorably to the controversies surrounding Ellen DeGeneres' show.​

According to an insider cited by RadarOnline.com, the show's set has been characterized as a "nest of vipers," with staff members feeling "miserable" upon arrival. The source claims that one senior producer remarked it was "better at Ellen," highlighting concerns about the workplace culture. Allegations include reports of favoritism and nepotism, with individuals outside certain cliques reportedly treated as outsiders.​

The host herself has also come under scrutiny. The insider alleges that Hall can be "scatty to deal with" and that her behavior has led to potential guests canceling appearances due to conflicts. Additionally, staff meetings with Hall are said to often start late, with the host frequently citing "conflicts" as reasons for delays.​

Concerns extend to the treatment of junior staff members. RadarOnline sources report that managers have made insinuations about staff not working hard enough, despite many employees reportedly working 50-hour weeks or more. Filing for overtime is allegedly "highly discouraged," and some staffers have expressed feelings of being underpaid and overworked.​

The show's leadership has also experienced turnover. Executive producer Candi Carter recently requested to be removed from the show, citing the "toxic" environment created by Hall. Carter is the third executive producer to leave the show in less than two years, raising questions about the show's internal dynamics.

As the show enters its third season, these reports suggest that the challenges behind the scenes may be affecting the overall success of 'The Tamron Hall Show.'
