The reign of the limited series "King Charles" on CNN has officially come to an end, as the final episode aired last week. Co-hosts Charles Barkley and Gayle King bid farewell, expressing gratitude towards the staff and admiration for one another.

As they signed off, Gayle King mentioned, "I have loved working with you, Charles, and something tells me this will not be the last time we are working together." These words gave audiences hope for future collaborations between the two.

Addressing the viewers, King added, "We will see you the next time whenever we see you. Thanks so much for being with us for the past six months. We had a blast." The heartfelt farewell left a positive impact on the audience.

The show was initially announced as a limited series with a planned conclusion in the spring of 2024. A CNN spokesperson reiterated this, stating, "King Charles has come to the end of its limited run, as we had previously announced. It was a great addition to CNN's lineup, attracting the youngest, most affluent, and most diverse P2+ audience in its cable news time period."

Former CNN CEO Chris Licht, the mastermind behind the program, brought his former CBS News colleague, Gayle King, on board for this venture. Barkley, known for his candid opinions, was paired with King to discuss the week's news. However, the early episodes struggled to resonate with viewers.

Despite the show's initial challenges, CNN highlighted that "King Charles" managed to attract a young, affluent, and diverse P2+ audience during its cable news time slot. This gave the series its unique position in the network lineup.

While the limited series has wrapped up, the positive reception and chemistry between King and Barkley have left fans hopeful for future collaborations. Although specific details are yet to be announced, the possibility of their reunion on future projects remains a tantalizing prospect for the audience.

In conclusion, the limited series "King Charles" bid its final farewell on CNN, with co-hosts Gayle King and Charles Barkley expressing their gratitude towards the staff and admiration for one another. Despite early struggles, the show managed to attract a young, affluent, and diverse audience. Although the series has concluded, viewers eagerly anticipate future collaborations between King and Barkley.
