July 25 (UPI) -- Full Frontal with Samantha Bee has been canceled.

Deadline reported Monday that TBS canceled the late-night talk show after seven seasons. The series was hosted by actress and comedian Samantha Bee.

Bee's reps confirmed to Variety that Full Frontal "will not return to the network in the fall."

"As we continue to shape our new programming strategy, we've made some difficult, business-based decisions," TBS said in a statement. "We are proud to have been the home to Full Frontal with Samantha Bee and thank Sam, and the rest of the Emmy-nominated team for their groundbreaking work."

"We celebrate this extraordinarily talented cast and crew and look forward to exploring new opportunities to work with them in the future," the network added.

The cancellation follows the WarnerMedia-Discovery merger in April. Chad and The Big D were also canceled at TBS, while TNT, TBS and truTV general manager Brett exited his role in May.

Prior to Full Frontal with Samantha Bee, Bee was a correspondent on The Daily Show.

Zactly. Should have been cancelled 7 years ago. The commercials advertising it were enough to see it was garbage.

Alleged comedian, I’ve seen no evidence that she is funny.

The media insists that "modern women" must be vulgar, publicly obsessed with their vaginas, and of course - leftist. Samantha Bee was the quintessence of that.

My wife and I watched part of the first episode. We had no idea what to expect; thought it was a comedy. Took a few minutes to realize we were in the wrong place. As a poster above said, she was an unfunny leftist skank. It probably had an audience of people who love Michael Moore's crap.

What a shame. Not only did I never watch a single show, I never even heard of the show...or her. Still, I’m going to really miss it.

That's clearly anti-woman racism demonstrated by Trump-supporters, real Republicans, and conservatives. There's no other reasonable explanation!

Everyone, all together now ...

"FREE SA-MAN'THA BEE!
"FREE SA-MAN'THA BEE!
"FREE SA-MAN'THA BEE!
"FREE SA-MAN'THA BEE! ..."

Extra Credit Question: Who made the following statement (under oath): "My dog stepped on a 'BEE'!? ... (weird wince) ..."

The headline alone looks like perfect Babylon Bee material. I can see it now. LOL

"Bee Gets Shutdown" read the headlines in large fonts as unfunny liberals squealed in glee. Only to realize it was Samantha Bee and not the Babylon Bee.

When asked for comment, Michael Moore said he was about to call Stacy Abrams to meet to celebrate and try to hug her so tight his hands just might meet behind her. Then he realized it was Samantha Bee being canceled and decided to finish his new documentary on the toxic happiness spread by the Christian Conservative movement.
