has been canceled at the channel, part of a larger strategic change at the company.
In October CNN said that it would cut back on original programming produced by outside production companies. The decision was “based, in large part, on the ever-increasing cost of commissioning third-party premium content,” CNN CEO Chris Licht said in a statement at the time.That being said, a source notes that Tucci also worked as an executive producer on the show, so he could work with the production partners to shop the program elsewhere.
is one of the most successful projects produced by CNN Original Series, garnering two consecutive Primetime Emmy Awards for Outstanding Hosted Nonfiction Program,” a CNN spokesperson said in a statement. “We want to thank the Stanley Tucci for his dream partnership. We look forward to collaborating on the upcoming Read More About:
Great job CNN. This was the only reason I turned on your network. Bye, Bye Losers.
.netflix hbomax PrimeVideo pls bring back StanleyTucci’s SearchingForItaly. PS Twitter “vitriol” against CNNPR’s Chris Licht all the more merited with this cancellation, the only CNN program I watched. ✨🤷🏻♂️ Twitter search “cnn licht” for more.
Stupid move.
Hope BBC picks it up.
scottygb Hopefully it will continue elsewhere - I love it and the BBC bought it too so there is an appetite, as it were, for it!
What a stupid decision.
CNN this is a stupid idea.
CNN this is litterally the only good thing you do CNNOriginals
Disappointing!! I get 99% of my news from this show.
noooo this was a great show!
Hopefully there will be another network or streaming channel that will pick up this amazing show.
Pick this up, netflix
It’ll get picked up by another network. Possibly hbo
I love that show 🥺
The ONLY show they should keep.
That's unfortunate. The only thing I watch on CNN is their original programming
Oh nooooooo. WHY?! I LOVE HIS SHOW! Ie learned so much about Italy!!! WHAT A SHAME!!! JUST CAN'T FIND GOOD SHOWS TO WATCH!! STOP CANCELING GOOD SHOWS!!!
Only show I was willing to still watch. Oh well.
Noooo! This is such a wonderful show & Stanley Tucci is amazing.
It was the only thing that brought me back to CNN. If Stanley's gone, so am I!
travelchannel this should be the content y’all should be making!! Get on it!
The “dulling “up of cnn
I refused to watch it: I live in a nursing home with no access to good food; I could not stand seeing him eat Italian delicacies!
He found Italy
That’s the only CNN show I’ve watched in the last 5 years.
Hello, netflix? Call Stanley Tucci.
On behalf of the TucciGang, this is a big mistake. korndiddy kelseydarragh GarrickBernard
The one good thing CNN has done for the world and they have taken it away. 🫠
Seems to be a trend. The overly rich buying media companies in order to destroy them.
That was literally the only thing I watched on CNN
One more reason not to watch CNN
Well, we knew they were fools
Terrible decision. One of CNN most respected programs. Yet, it is independently produced, so hopefully we will see it continue elsewhere. BTW: CNN is still planning to show “Searching for Mexico” that Mr Tucci is a EP. How does this make sense? 🙄
Why. I liked that show
Noooooo
So stupid! I enjoy watching and learning about Italy, the food, the lifestyle, and Stanley Tucci is a great host. CNN What are you doing? 👎
CNN producers probably realize too many people are enjoying it and living vicariously through Stanley so they decided to exit. Weirdos!
Faithfully watched this show ❤️! BAD MOVE CNN
Damn! This was one of my favorites. Hopefully tucciofficial can find a solution to keep it going.
Me outside the CNN offices tomorrow
The reason I watch CNN sometimes. Big mistake.
This is sad. I loved his Italy travels - he has such reverence for the culture, it’s admirable. I hope he gets picked up by another network.
Horrible cnn
Ok now they have officially gone too far…
“Guess he found it” - mikebiscardi
The last good show on cnn, RIP
Oh good. So boring.
CarmoSteph Stanley Tucci is too good for CNN anyway.
It’s not the food network.
They should try doing news.
scottygb Booooooo!!!! The BBC or even Channel 4 should step up!
It's the only good show CNN had.😡
That's a shame. Since the new CEO turned CNN to the dark side, Tucci's show was the only show on CNN that I watched. Now there are 0 shows that I will watch on CNN.
Season 2 is of 'Stanley Tucci Searching for Italy' seems like Stanley gave up, only Michelin Starred places and such in Season 2.
scottygb Noooooooooooo!
CarmoSteph I am fine with that, CNN needs to be more news, and less...
scottygb Wouldn’t be surprised if the BBC picks this up for another series. Popular show in the UK.
Cat was already out of the bag, but looks like it's getting shopped around at other networks:
Noooooooooooooo one of the best things on it
As an honorary Brit BBC would be an excellent choice
scottygb But he hasn’t found all of Italy yet!! Hope BBCTwo pick this up for at least one last series
scottygb WHAT THE FUCK 😭😭
We love this show. Damn
Um. What the fuck
One of the only things people watched on CNN - but let’s get rid of MartinSavidge brianstelter RobinMeade - but let’s keep KateBolduan Allyson Camirota VictorBlackwell jaketapper donlemon DanaBashCNN - StopWatchingCNN
This pisses me off! Somebody needs to pick it up
Aww, I really liked that show.
Literally the only reason I’d watch CNN. Hope someone else picks it up.
Great show too. What's up CNN
Even though I find Tucci less than entertaining —and not just because of his fake Italian and stories about himself— the series is good. But I don’t watch cnn
That’s so sad it’s the only show I watched on that network
I guess I really have no reason to watch CNN at all now! Ciao!
already stopped watching CNN. glad I did.
Noooo!
Booooooo! 🍝
It is a great show.
very sad. it’s a great show.
No
netflix should scoop this up!
Someone will pick it up and get twice the eyeballs on a legit platform
👎🏾
What a shame. It made watching CNN worthwhile.
What I loved it
👎
Only show we watch on CNN. It’s wonderful. So disappointed!
Mistake CNN one of my favorite shows
The only thing worth watching on CNN besides United Shades of America.
That’s a damned shame.
WTH. Why because CNN has so much going on This and wkamaubell's United Shades of America are the only two shows I watch on CNN.
Noooo! What a great show. Somebody, please pick it up! 😢
Isn’t Tucci’s Season 3 what GoFundMe was made for?
No no no! Stanley Tucci is the only reason to turn on CNN these days. One of my favorite shows. This is horrible news.
What the fuck am I supposed to watch at the end of my plane ride now when I don't have time for a full movie?
The only show I watched on CNN. Stanley is too good for CNN anyway. Hope the show continues and lands somewhere else.
What the Hell🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬
💔
What?
Recently discovered and really like this show. It goes way deeper than just food. Made with love n care for the people and culture.
Such a a great show. We just went to Italy and my wife had a Stanley Tucci name mention counter. I kept mentioning his show! I hope Netflix or some other network picks up his show.
Literally the only show I watched on CNN. A++
They are too busy with both sides 'news' programming.
CNN discoveryplus I literally watched every stanleytucci episode at least 5x each! I need more. He didn’t even get to visit all 20 regions of Italia 🇮🇹
Big mistake.
CNN is deteriorating just like Twitter …
What? That was a great show! Wtf cnn
Incorrect decision
I really enjoyed this show.
Oh this is a shame. It was absolutely one of the best CNN offered. This is surely the end of times.
Save $$$, retire Wolf, he hasn't been relevant since his buddy Jack died
My favorite show on CNN. Someone is making terrible decisions CNN.
That was the only thing I watched on CNN
Oh no! I’m devastated.
🥹🥲🥹🥲🥹🥲🥹🥲
NOOOOOOOO!!!!
Ahhh I love that show.
Pretty sure their new target demographic groups weren’t fans.
Brilliant move CNN. 🙄
Well, it was the only thing I've watched on CNN since I realized that Wolf was a poor substitute for Bernie Shaw, & CNN tried desperately to compete with FoxNews on their own field.
One of my favorite shows, cnn has gone down the tubes.
What the heck! I only watched cnn for this show. It’s the best thing they have! Wonderful, entertaining, enjoyable and also an educational show. StanleyTucci
NO are they crazy! CNN this show is great, big mistake.
I love that show!! damn!
😡😡😡😡
MSNBC this show is gold.
Screw CNN. That’s a great show
Stanley Tucci is too classy for what CNN has become. Other cable channels would be fools not to pick up his show. And remember. guanciale. Not pancetta, when you make your amatriciana sauce.
Huge mistake CNN it’s the best damn show you have!
Oh come on CNN that show was the sole reason I tuned into your network.
Oh no!
Someone should pick that up. It’s a fantastic show hidden in obscurity on CNN.
The people running CNN have limited vision We loved this show and thought they could expand this show to other countries. Why not have Penelope Cruz doing cuisine from Spain or Antonio Banderas. Think of other countries like Greece France and then go to Asia etc. Dull is back
This was the only show that was watchable on CNN
That sucks
✨ Disappointing, for sure … ✨ *✨ I truly hope that another network or streaming service will have the good sense to make “Stanley Tucci: Searching For Italy” a significant part of their regular programming in the near future … ✨
We will never find Italy now, except in memes
Such a stupid decision.
This is just a dumb decision.
Well that makes no damn sense
Booooo! Tucci’s show is a must-see. CNN should dump the RW pundits who are alienating their audience.
Yeah, I'm sure Stanley was no cheap date.
The only how I watched on CNN!
netflix You want this show to continue, right? CNN’s loss could be your gain!
Bad CNN Bad! 😡
Noooooooo!
Stupid choice by CNN
😭😭😭😭
Warner Bros Discovery is an absolute train wreck
Ugh...👎👎
Shame on CNN!
NOOOOO! 😥
Damn, that sucks
Oh I loved this show. Can someone else pick it up netflex maybe
it is a great show, informative, great stories, and took you all over that wonderful country of Italy. Who knows with CNN will waste of money on now.
Nuts! Fantastic show !
Why was this excellent show cancelled CNN ? You know not everyone wants to see news all the time.
so did he ever find italy
Did they find its old tweets
Come on!
Well, it was the only program I watched on CNN. Your loss.
Joke.
1 more reason to TurnOffCNN CNN
☹️
Damn you CNN!!
shrinking to greatness
Only thing I watch on CNN
CNN this is just dumb. Great culinary adventures. And who doesn’t love Stanley Tucci?! Y’all are just gutting the house!
Now we've never find Italy
I guess he was part of the layoffs
CNN should cancel CNN
Hello Netflix? I've got a great show for you to pick up. Dynamic host and spectacular visits to Italy. Thanks!
☹️
What?!?!?! I LOVE that show!
netflix
Because he found it?
Good riddance CNN
So they canceled the best thing on CNN? Brother…
Nooooooooooooooooooo (hope another streamer picks it up)
Noooooooo!!!!!!🤬
I never saw an episode. I stopped watching CNN when ownership changed. CNN has worked VERY hard to push away viewers. 🖕🏻👀🖕🏻
Bad choice
Oh my God!
Well this decision sucks! This was a great show!
NOOOOOO!!! Actually one of your best shows and your getting rid of it? No wonder I’ve found myself watching other networks…now I’ll have to find something else but I won’t watch what takes the place of this great show sadly.
How dare they
That show was the best thing on CNN. Terrible decision but one that you’ve come to expect from this declining network. Hopefully another better one will pick it up.
Bad decision….great show for many reasons.
Cancel culture gone crazy. What did the Tooch ever do to you CNN ?
Now that The Tooch is available, I’d like to officially pitch this idea I had a couple years ago. “Tucci Feeley” A travel show hosted by Stanley Tucci and former NFL quarterback AJ Feeley where they go to a new city each week and take MDMA.
Netflix should pick it up
This show was awesome. So sad.
Horrible decision! I hope someone else decides to keep it going. Love the show.
WTW!? Is nothing sacred!? One of the best shows on TV, hosted by one of the best!
netflix hulu Apple A real opportunity here. StanleyTucci Italy
well CNN has made several mistakes and this is a major one. This show was completely inspiring
what hope another network picks it up
Hope someone smarter than CNN grabs the rights and continues to air it on another channel! Love love love this show and Stanley Tucci is wonderful, just comes across as a really great human being❤️ Buh' bye CNN.
That’s criminal!
🤌
That's a shame. Was a wonderful experience.
Who makes the call over CNN ?! Easily one of the best shows they've ever had. What a dumpster fire.
Really? So few shows that are just pure fun. Reconsider please
Very disappointing!!!!
That’s too bad. I really enjoyed that show🙁🙁
It was the only other CNN show I watched. Next they will cancel wkamaubell .. then I’m completely done.
Why!! This is a great show.
Oh no
My taste buds enjoyed that program. Gosh
Another dreadful decision by CNN! It was a great show.
CNN
now we'll never know how it would've ended!
NOOOOO! I love this show.
Not cool, CNN. I hope it gets picked up by another network.
Now there's really no reason whatsoever to ever watch CNN again
CNN is really trying to tank themselves.
A shame. I thought it was lovely.
Only thing I watched on CNN StanleyTucci
I'm worried Stanley will fall into a depression now and start eating.
Nooooooo!!!!! CNN what are you doing?!?!
One of the best things on UK TV. Will be missed.
Sinking boat
Damn shame
CNN this is the only show I would watch on your station. Tucci is great!
No!
Licht killing CNN one horrible decision after another horrible decision over and over.
I love this show! WTH!!
A CRIME
Boooooooo!
Me to CNN
That’s the only thing I watch on CNN
CNN Please reconsider cancellation of “Stanley Tucci: Searching For Italy!” It was one of my favorite “non-news” shows on CNN after the death of Anthony Bourdain and “Anthony Bourdain: Parts Unknown!”
why didn’t he just google where it was?
.netflix do your thing
Best thing on CNN. WTH?
☹️
Boo. Loved this show.
Should have kept it until he found the Italian World Cup team
Damn! Just ruthless! Surely it will be picked up by another network. Didn't Stanley win an Emmy for his show?
Thank god
Why do they cancel great shows all the time Enjoyed watching that show!
What?
It’s such a good show. I hope he can do it somewhere else.
*Prays for United Shades and This is Life* 🙏
To CNN....⬇️
That is not a great decision, this program is great , bring smiles, and is very loved by viewers. Doesn't seems a right choice.
Loved that show. 😢
It felt out of place.
Yeah when that show came on it meant it was time to change the channel; Tucci has no dark edge to him so it was a very uninteresting show
netflix will pick it up
That's a great show. I hope another channel/service picks it up.
WrittenByHanna This show is excellent
CNN. Brilliant. Canceling one of programs most popular with viewers. ( Stanley Tucci ) We don’t need more news panels either…
But did he find it?!
my wife is going to be pissed.
boo
Bad idea, that show is amazing!
Bummer. I really enjoyed this show.
Horrible decision, CNN
That’s a shame!
You don’t cancel Stanley Tucci. Stanley Tucci cancels you.
literally the only good show they had
Oh, BOOOOO.
Only positive section of Warner Bros affected by the Discovery merger is that CNN has been changed a lot already. Many reporters and hosts I loathe have now been fired or moved to different time slots, of course now I can't watch their morning show because Lemon is there though.
Let's re structure by canceling our best show ever. Good job guys.
This was a delightful show that really helped me escape being alone during the pandemic. 😢 Just another reason to dislike CNN
Sad! The one CNN original show I watched. Hopefully someone else picks it up. He could search for Greece next.
Discovery should grab it. It’s great.
Translation: it’s cheaper to pay an anchor to sit behind a desk.
BUMMER - That sounds like an interesting docuseries. Maybe it’ll get picked up elsewhere; like Amazon, Hulu, etc.
