Fox Business cancels "Happy Hour"

Colby Hall of Mediaite reports that Fox Business Network has canceled its afternoon “Happy Hour” show.

Hall writes, “We hear that the show’s talent and staff were told the news today, and there is no word yet on how this may affect the show’s on-air hosts, Cody Willard, Rebecca Diamond, and Eric Bolling.

“Mediaite has confirmed with a Fox Business spokesperson that Happy Hour has been canceled and we hear the hour will take a more “news-focused approach.” While its unclear how this will affect the three personalities attached to Happy Hour, of the three, Eric Bollingon throughout the day on FBN and has often been a substitute host for the most prominent Fox News shows like Beck and O’Reilly.”

  • Fix business news Happy Hour was a great program, I looked forward to it every day, your new program STINKS I SHALL TURN IT OFF EVERY DAY.
    The three people that ran the show were informative & enjoyable plus others that were guests.
    I dislike the fact that Fox news decides for the people what we should watch.
    Your ideas quite frankly STINK.
    REBECCA DIAMOND, ERIC BOLLING & CODY WILLARD deserve better I hope to find they on another network.

  • Fox Business tinkering is screwing up a previous good line up by replacing
    Happy Hour and Lexis Glick show with Willis and Imus. These new programs
    are dull and the previous showa were enjoyable and interesting. I guess I'll be
    watching less of fox bussiness. Next thing, they will be removing Neil, the last
    strong beacon of light for FBN.
