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]
On February 2, 2026, it was announced that the show was being withdrawn from syndication after four seasons, with the final episodes set to air May, but that Debmar-Mercury was seeking another outlet for the program that was a better fit than daytime television.[9]
