Production

Sherri is filmed live in Chelsea Studios in New York, with two tapings a day. [3] [4] The series serves as a de facto replacement and placeholder for The Wendy Williams Show , for which Shepherd served as an interim host in much of the last portion of the thirteenth season, which showed its lowest ratings; due to personal and medical issues involving Williams. [5] Much of the production team for Wendy thus carried over to Shepherd's show, along with its existing studio re-configured with a new set design. [6] In January 2023, the series was renewed for its second and third seasons through 2025. [7] On March 20, 2025, it was renewed for a fourth season. [8]
