Steve is a

NBCUniversal Television Distribution
, and was described as having a larger focus on celebrity guests and Harvey's comedy (as opposed to the previous series, which focused more on human interest topics).

In 2018, the show was dropped by NBCUniversal and its stations for the 2019–2020 television season, in favor of

original series
on the platform. Steve on Watch premiered on January 6, 2020.

History

Harvey's previous talk show,

NBCUniversal Television Distribution, to produce a new talk show in Los Angeles with an ownership stake, more creative control, and a celebrity-oriented format.[1] The new series, Steve, originated from a new set at Stage 1 at Universal Studios in Universal City, California.[2]

Production

Steve tapped Shane Farley as the

Atlanta to Los Angeles (the primetime Celebrity Family Feud had already been filmed in Los Angeles ahead of the move of the main, syndicated series).[4][5] The show premiered on September 5, 2017,[6] with guests Chelsea Handler, Marlon Wayans, and James Arthur.[7]

Steve was picked up in 90% of the U.S., including most of the NBC Owned Television Stations group (where it inherited the previous program's timeslots as a lead-in to The Ellen DeGeneres Show).[8] In January 2018, the show was renewed for a second and final season that premiered on September 4.[3][9]

Cancellation

On September 19, 2018, it was announced that NBC Owned Television Stations had picked up The Kelly Clarkson Show—which is produced and distributed by NBCUniversal, to replace Steve on its stations for the 2019–2020 television season. Insiders reported that IMG had been shopping the series to a new distributor or outlet.[10][8]

In January 2019, Harvey stated that he was caught off-guard by the news, arguing that he "thought it would have been nice of [NBC]" to inform that he was being replaced by Kelly Clarkson. Harvey noted that, across both shows, he had hosted daytime talk shows for seven consecutive seasons, despite volatility in daytime television due to other options such as streaming.[11] In May 2019, Steve was officially cancelled, and its final episode aired on June 26.[12][13][14]

Format

Harvey described the new show's format as being more akin to a

human interest segments, but that he would be able to "interject a little bit more of my personality in terms of humor in a lot more areas".[15]

Steve on Watch

It was later announced in December 2019 that Harvey and Endeavor Content had signed a deal with Facebook Watch to produce a continuation of the show as a web series, Steve on Watch, with an initial 10-week run beginning January 6, 2020. Early episodes of the series were filmed at the Tyler Perry Studios in Atlanta.[16] The show was later shot at Trilith Studios in Fayetteville, Georgia.[17][18]
