CNN Pulls The Plug on Gayle King and Charles Barkley's Ratings-Starved Show After 6 Months

CNN ends Gayle King and Charles Barkley's 'King Charles' show.MEGA

After pouring money into Gayle King and Charles Barkley's King Charles, CNN has decided to pull the plug on the program, RadarOnline.com has learned.

The network had high hopes for the limited TV series bringing in much-needed viewers — which included giving King a $12 million salary — but after six months the program failed to live up to expectations.

King and Barkley praised working with each other as they took turns signing off for one last time.

"I will say this: I have loved working with you and something tells me Charles, this will not be the last time that we’re working together," King told her co-host.

"Call me Gayle," the former NBA star jokingly replied.

"We will see you the next time whenever we see you. Thanks so much for being with us for the past six months. We had a blast," King added.
