Steve Wilkos, Karamo Brown Shows, Filmed In Stamford, Canceled: Report

STAMFORD, CT — Two daytime television shows filmed in Stamford, "The Steve Wilkos Show" and "Karamo," were both canceled last week by NBCUniversal, according to The Hollywood Reporter.

The two shows were filmed at Stamford Studios, a Division of NBCUniversal, on Atlantic Street. Both shows reportedly wrapped production before last week's announcement, and will air the remaining new episodes into the summer.

How many jobs will be lost due to the cancellations is not immediately known.

Wilkos' show aired for nearly 20 years, beginning in 2007 as a spin-off of the late Jerry Springer's show. Wilkos was a popular security guard on the Springer show.

Karamo Brown, known for his role on the Netflix show "Queer Eye," debuted "Karamo" in 2022.

The Stamford Advocate reported that Wilkos has come to terms with the cancellation, though he had hoped to get to 20 years.

"I got to be honest, I'm at ease with it," the publication quoted Wilkos saying. "I knew everything ends, I knew this day was coming."

Stamford Studios is in the Rich Forum building, and the production company will reportedly vacate the facility in the near future.
