Sherri Shepherd<\/a> has given her final sendoff to her daytime talk show, \u201cSherri.\u201d <\/p>\n

In a post on Instagram<\/a> on Friday (May 22), the comedian, actor, and host shared a video of herself walking around an empty set, flashing back to scenes when the seats were filled with an energetic audience, and Shepherd, just as animated, was talking about the latest pop culture news from her hot pink chair. <\/p>\n

\u201cFamily!!!! Thank you so much for all of the love and support over these last 4 years,\u201d she wrote in the caption. It was a bittersweet end to a life I got to know so well.\u201d<\/p>\n

The final episode of \u201cSherri\u201d aired on Thursday, May 21. Though this new message from Shepherd marked an official sign-off from her show, which she hosted for four years, she teased that this would not be the last we see of her. <\/p>\n

\u201cBut here is to new beginnings\u2026if you thought you were sick of me before just you wait,\u201d she said. <\/p>\n

After four seasons, it was announced in February that \u201cSherri\u201d would be canceled<\/a>. Its syndication house, Lionsgate\u2019s Debmar-Mercury, explained in a statement to People that the show ended not because it was unsuccessful, but because of the \u201cevolving daytime television landscape.\u201d <\/p>\n

\u201c[It] does not reflect on the strength of the show, its production \u2014 which has found strong creative momentum this season \u2014 or the incredibly talented Sherri Shepherd,\u201d the statement read. \u201cWe believe in this show and in Sherri and intend to explore alternatives for it on other platforms.\u201d<\/p>\n

Shepherd reassured her followers and fans that they would see her soon, and that she wouldn\u2019t \u201cgo down without a fight.\u201d<\/a><\/p>\n

\u201cI am still really trying to keep this going, and you haven\u2019t seen the last of \u2018Sherri,\u2019\u201d she said during a guest appearance on \u201cThe View.\u201d <\/p>\n

A month after the news broke of the show\u2019s cancellation, Shepherd inked a deal with Lifetime<\/a> for an upcoming film, which she will star in and executive produce called \u201cAngel in the Rubble.\u201d She also received her star on Hollywood\u2019s Walk of Fame<\/a> this year, celebrating a three-decade-long career in the industry, hosting daytime shows, acting, and doing stand-up. <\/p>\n
