Ellen DeGeneres‘ digital empire now spans more than 186 million social media followers, and the daytime talk show host is planning some new pieces of content to share with those fans. During the Ellen Digital Network‘s presentation at the 2018 NewFronts, its execs revealed several upcoming programs, including a partnership with YouTube star Hannah Hart.
As part of the deal, Hart will host a show that will be distributed across the Ellen Digital Network, which includes the video platform Ellentube. While details about the show are slim, we do know it will give Hart the opportunity to dispense advice to people who are facing big life decisions. Hart already has some experience in the self-help world thanks to her podcast Hannahlyze This, which she launched back in February.
The Ellen Digital Network also plans to bring back Momsplaining, a parenting series starring Kristen Bell, for a second season. The Good Place star, herself a mother of two, will return to answer more questions posed by expectant mothers. The first season of Momsplaining premiered back in January and reportedly received more than 80 million views during its first four weeks of activity.
The presentation also included more details about the Ellen Digital Network’s partnership with Kalen Allen, the amateur food critic who caught DeGeneres’ eye after his histrionic reviews of outlandish recipes went viral late last year. Since joining the Ellen family with a content deal, Allen has received more than 186 million views.
Here, via a press release, are details about all the projects the Ellen Digital Network discussed at Newfronts:
