Talk Soup is a television show produced for cable network E! that debuted 7 January 1991, and aired until August 2002. The show aired selected clips of the previous day's daily talk shows—ranging from daytime entries like The Jerry Springer Show to celebrity interview shows like The Tonight Show—surrounded by humorous commentary delivered by the host. Although the show poked fun at the talk shows, it also advertised the topics and guests of upcoming broadcasts of them. Despite this several other talk shows refused to allow clips of their shows to be shown on the series. During its run, Talk Soup was nominated for five Daytime Emmy Awards, winning once in 1995 for Outstanding Special Class Program. It remains the only E! show to ever win an Emmy. A show based on it, The Soup, hosted by Joel Mchale, now airs weekly on E!
