Daytime Talk Show Guests Today, Monday, Sept. 7, 2026: 50 Cent and Misty Copeland Open Live's Season 5
Daytime restarts today, and it restarts with one show. Live with Kelly and Mark opens its fifth season on Labor Day while the rest of the genre waits — The View is a day behind it, and Drew Barrymore is a week behind that.
The gist: Curtis "50 Cent" Jackson and ballerina Misty Copeland are today's guests, and they are the only announced daytime bookings anywhere on the board.
Who is on Live with Kelly and Mark today?
50 Cent and Misty Copeland, on the Season 5 premiere. The show has also trailed a segment on getting your head back into work after the summer, which is a very Labor Day thing to program.
It is the first new episode since Friday's viewers' choice show, and the season number is worth noting: Kelly Ripa and Mark Consuelos have now been paired at the desk for five years.
What time does Live air where you are?
It is syndicated, so your station picks the hour. New York gets it at 9 a.m. on WABC, and many ABC affiliates match that; plenty of others hold it until 10 a.m. or run it after a local newscast.
One holiday caveat: Labor Day is exactly when stations shuffle a syndicated hour for a parade, a marathon or extended news. If it is not in its usual slot this morning, check your grid rather than assuming a pre-emption — it may simply have moved.
Is The View on today?
Not today. Season 30 opens Tuesday, Sept. 8 with the full table — Whoopi Goldberg, Joy Behar, Sunny Hostin, Sara Haines, Alyssa Farah Griffin and Ana Navarro — and no outside guest on the premiere.
The bookings start the day after: Sen. Ted Cruz and Lizzo on Wednesday, Andrew Garfield on Thursday, then Sherri Shepherd and Maisie Williams to close the week.
Which daytime shows are not coming back?
Two of them. The Kelly Clarkson Show signed off Aug. 31 after seven seasons, with a final "By Request" hour and Clarkson's children on stage. Sherri ended May 21 after four seasons when Debmar-Mercury pulled the plug.
Nothing national replaced Clarkson's hour. NBC's own stations filled it market by market — news blocks in New York and Philadelphia, Dateline repeats in Chicago and Boston — which tells you more about the state of syndicated daytime than any cancellation notice.
When does the rest of the daytime slate start?
| Show | Season | First new episode |
|---|---|---|
| Live with Kelly and Mark | 5 | Mon, Sept. 7 (today) |
| The View | 30 | Tue, Sept. 8 |
| The Drew Barrymore Show | 7 | Mon, Sept. 14 |
Drew Barrymore's seventh season was renewed in the spring alongside an eighth for 2027–28, so that one is not going anywhere.
Where can you stream today's show?
Live and The View both land on Hulu the following day; Drew's episodes go to Paramount+. If you missed a segment rather than the whole hour, the shows post clips to their own YouTube channels within a few hours.
