After just shy of two years on the air, Lilly Singh s late-night talk show is officially coming to an end.
The Scarborough-born comedian made history when her show, A Little Late With Lilly Singh, first premiered on NBC in September of 2019 making her the first and only woman of colour on network late-night talk TV.
Now in its second season, the show has been struggling with ratings thanks in part to its 1:30 a.m. time slot and the COVID-19 pandemic. Its last episode is set to air on June 3.
