Mon Dec 16 19:10:00 UTC 2024: ## Jerry O’Connell Slams Report of ‘The Talk’ Hosts Phoning it In

**LOS ANGELES, CA** – Jerry O’Connell is firing back at reports suggesting the hosts of *The Talk* are slacking off in the show’s final days. The actor, who co-hosts the CBS daytime talk show, took to Instagram to vehemently deny a *The Sun* article claiming the cast was merely going through the motions before their December 20th finale.

“What the heck,” O’Connell wrote, “We give it our all! Everyday!” He detailed his week’s activities, including dancing like Mick Jagger and impersonating Sly Stallone, adding, “Goonies never say die!!!”

Fellow comedian Loni Love, who experienced similar rumors surrounding *The Real*’s cancellation, echoed O’Connell’s sentiment, praising the *Talk* cast as professionals.

*The Talk*, which premiered in 2010, is concluding its 15-season run. The final week will feature a star-studded guest lineup and special holiday giveaways. CBS will replace the show with the new soap opera *Beyond the Gates* on February 24th, airing reruns of *The Price Is Right* in the interim.
