“Red Table Talk” got the boot after Meta unplugged Facebook Watch’s original programming.
The daytime Emmy award-winning show — hosted by Jada Pinkett-Smith, her daughter Willow Smith and mother Adrienne Banfield-Norris — tackled conversations about social issues with an inter-generational perspective, which led to Pinkett-Smith exposing the dark side of her marriage with Academy Award winner Will Smith.
In 2020, the couple revealed to their 11 million Facebook followers that the “Girls Trip” actor had an “entanglement” — a relationship outside her marriage — with 30-year-old R&B singer August Alsina.
She admitted her marriage was on a downfall, and the couple briefly separated, so “I got into a different kind of entanglement with August … it was a relationship, absolutely,” she revealed to her husband in the 12-minute video.
After Alsina ended the entanglement with the 51-year-old actor, she began to repair her marriage to 54-year-old Smith, “We have gotten to that new place of unconditional love.”
The Facebook series started in 2018 and ran for five seasons before being canceled.
Each episode featured a notable guest, such as Hayden Panettiere, Jennette McCurdy, Jordyn Woods, Bobby Brown and the cast of “A Different World.”
The talk show was one of the last to get unplugged after Mina Lefevre, head of development and programming at Meta, along with more than 20,000 employees were laid off, according to Deadline.
Facebook Watch began scrapping its original scripted programming in 2020 after canceling “Sorry For Your Loss,” starring Elizabeth Olsen and Jessica Biel.
In more recent years, the platform started to focus on unscripted programming such as “Tom vs. Time,” “Red Table Talk” and “Steve on Watch.”
Westbrook Studios, Jada and Will Smith’s production company, is looking for a new distributor for the series.
