In her second career iteration as a talk-show host, Ellen DeGeneres has been buoyed by generalities. Her show’s success lies in the degree to which it could conceivably be for any viewer; oth…
, DeGeneres’ attempt to clear the air fell painfully flat in part because of her unwillingness to engage with her critics in anything more meaningful than a platitude.
To wit: DeGeneres instructed her audience that “we have made the necessary changes, and today we are starting a new chapter.” While viewers are not entitled to see the show’s org chart, some more transparency about what these changes are might be in order given DeGeneres’ chastened tone. Throughout the monologue, DeGeneres worked to carry across the sense of herself as having learned something — “I am a work in progress,” she told viewers.
It’s likely that for DeGeneres, the topic ends here: Unspecific and studded with glancing apologies for anyone who might have been affected by the climate she oversaw, her address had a feeling of obligation, and of being over it all.
But it’s hard not to feel as though an opportunity was missed here. DeGeneres admitted, in the vaguest terms, to often feeling angry, anxious, and impatient — emotions that are close to universally relatable at this moment.
