Background
editThe series was a lighter take on another talk show that was produced Columbia/Tri-Star at the time, Ricki Lake, and as such focused on issues such as relationships, family issues, and the topics of the day. The series also aired on a majority of stations that also aired Ricki as a way to capitalize on attracting young adult and urban viewers, given Bledsoe and Lake being in their 20s. However, even with or without Lake's program as a lead-in or lead-out, Tempestt failed to win viewers over and was cancelled by June 1996.
Reception
editAmy Harrington of Fox News labeled it as one of the worst talk shows in television history.[4]
