On Friday, Help Us Celebrate Our 800th Show!

My, how time flies. It seems like just yesterday we were celebrating our 798th show. I know, the show doesn't look a day over 700. And no, we haven't had had a lot of work done. It's just a lot of healthy living, and with a few exceptions, we've tried to stay out of the sun. What is the theme for the 800th anniversary? It's not paper, wood or silver... I think it might be linoleum.

Anyway, we're pulling out all the stops! You won't believe the surprises we've got lined up for our audience! Plus, we'll look at some of our all-time favorite moments and guests -- and your all-time favorite moments! Plus, we'll be premiering a big, super-special surprise, so please don't miss the party! It wouldn't be the same without you!

next: A Megan Cooper Marathon Update

Hi Ellen!!!

Just wanted to say I Love You and your show. Been watching since September 2003. Actually been watching you since your show in 1994. Loved you as Dory on Finding Nemo. Well, just wanted to tell you, CONGRATULATIONS ON YOUR 800TH SHOW. I'm trying to come see you for my 2nd Anniversary May 20th. Waiting on tickets to become available. Well, once again, I Love You and please keep me laughing.

Just Me: With her words. I could read, that she is a true person. I appreciate this. Enough?!

Who is Gerrie, how could she get your interest, Berliner?

Posted by Just Me | April 24, 2008 8:58 AM

Gerrie, letter...? Are you angry, afraid, I didn´t want to bother you.

Posted by Berliner | April 24, 2008 8:55 AM

CONGRATULATIONS ON YOUR 800TH SHOW. WE SEE YOUR SHOW IN THE MORNINGS IN FLORIDA AND YOU MAKE MY DAY. I HAVE BEEN RETIRED FOR 2 YEARS AND I TRY NOT TO MISS ANY OF YOUR SHOWS. WE HAVE 13 DOGS INSIDE AND THEY ALL KNOW YOU. ALL I HAVE TO DO IN THE MORNING IS SAY LET'S DANCE WITH ELLEN AND THEY ALL COME RUNNING TO DANCE WITH YOU. IT IS NICE TO HAVE A SHOW THAT MAKES YOU LAUGH AND CRY BUT FEEL GOOD WHEN IT IS OVER. KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK. MY WISH IS TO SEE YOU LIVE.

Berliner, what are you doing? You have a nice sense of humour.

Posted by Just Me | April 24, 2008 8:43 AM

Congrats on your 800th! The show is a blast to watch, and is a bright spot in my afternoons! It makes my ironing and laundry folding actually fun! Have a great celebration... I'll be tuned in to watch the festivities!

I recently retired and now watch the show every day,(so my day doesen't even start till 11:00AM shame on me) I used to miss it about twice a week. At 52 and a grandmother I am really not the demographic Justin Timberlake attract's, I think there have been so many extraoridarny moments,Sandra Bullack and the pepper among them, all of the animal antics, but him dancing as GUMBO has to takethe cake for me, I laughed so hard I cried.

Hi Ellen,

Congratulations on 800 shows! I can only hope we have at least 800 more. I record your show everyday and watch when I get home from work. My dog sits on the sofa beside me and sometimes I think she laughs as much as I do. I think you are a phenomenal woman with such talent and what a huge heart. It truly is inspiring to be part of your show everyday.....even if it is from thousands of miles away.

Love ya much,

Michael

CONGRATULATIONS ELLEN ! WHAT A BRIGHT SPOT IN MY MORNING SCHEDULE, AS I AM CERTAIN IT IS IN MANY HOMES ACROSS THE COUNTRY. I HOPE YOU CONTINUE FOR A LONG TIME.

IT WOULD BE ONE SAD DAY IN MINNESOTA WHEN I AM NOT ABLE TO WATCH YOUR SHOW.

I APPLAUD YOU ELLEN FOR YOUR CARING AND COMPASSION. I APPLAUD YOUR MAMA !

KEEP UP YOU INSPIRING WAYS.

Ellen i love your show you love to dance and stuff. You always make me laugh and cheer me up. My favorite episode was when victoria beckham came on the show and you both gave each other shoes. Ellen you looked funny and Victoria should wear them more offten. Ellen dont get offended but you did look funny i still love you.
