In the New York area, NBC’s 3 pm hour is now the home of a new show called News Zone.
“What started as a little experiment with a big idea — a way to deliver the news differently than you’ve ever seen before — is now a reality!” host Adam Kuperstein announced on Instagram late last week.
“Starting today, News Zone is replacing the Kelly Clarkson Show (gulp) from 3-4pm on NBC New York.
“It was always a long-shot. But thanks to our tiny (but mighty) team, and all my colleagues who have busted their butts, News Zone has grown into something we are super proud of.

On Friday, the show reported on the Lindsay Clancy trial and the death of a city subway employee.
The Kelly Clarkson Show ended on August 31 with an extended Kelly-oke karaoke segment and cameos from the host’s kids River, 12, and Remington, 10.
She claimed she ended the show to make more time for her children, who suffered from the loss of their dad, Kelly’s ex-husband Brandon Blackstock, in August 2025.
“Stepping away from the daily schedule will allow me to prioritize my kids, which feels necessary and right for this chapter of our lives,” she explained in a February statement.
As The U.S. Sun exclusively reported, both Pink and Olympic skater besties Tara Lipinski and Johnny Weir have been in talks with NBC to snag their own talk show after Kelly’s end.
However, nothing has been announced ahead of the fall 2026 season.
