Okay, so here's what I've noticed about The Ananda Lewis Show: even though it ran for a bunch of episodes, it just doesn't get mentioned like Oprah or even Tyra Banks. Honestly, I think it's kinda unfair. Ananda actually talked about real stuff, not just celeb drama or weird games – things like family, health, and issues regular people deal with every day.

But maybe that's the problem too? Back then, if a show didn't have wild fights or super famous guests all the time, it didn't blow up as much. The show only lasted about a year, which sucks, cause over 250 episodes is a lot, but in TV, one year can mean it gets skipped over.

In my opinion, people just kinda forgot about it because it didn't go for many seasons, and maybe the show was too smart for what daytime TV wanted at that time. But honestly, if it came out now, I bet it would have blown up with TikTok and YouTube clips. Ananda was ahead of the game, if you ask me.
