‘Let’s Make A Deal’ Wayne Brady Shares Sad News With Fans
Let’s Make A Deal host, Wayne Brady’s charisma is unmatched. Whether he is on the game show or making things up on the fly with Whose Line Is It Anyway?, he works to keep fans laughing. However, recently, he openly shared sad news with his fans as he faces big transitions ahead.
Wayne Brady Is Open With Fans
Although Let’s Make A Deal host, Wayne Brady loves to laugh, he has also tried to stay honest with his fans. For instance, he made a difficult decision to publicly announce he is pansexuality last year. Likewise, he ventured to allow his “core four” to be opened to criticism by vulnerably inviting cameras into their lives to film Wayne Brady: The Family Remix. It has been available for streaming on Freeform since July 2024. The show includes Wayne with his best friend and ex-wife, Mandie Taketa, their daughter, Maile Masako Brady, and his ex-wife’s life partner, Jason Fordham. However, he has sad news for fans.
Wayne Brady Shares Sad News With Fans
In an interview for Wayne Brady’s Super Bowl collaboration with Perdue Chicken, he announced that Wayne Brady: The Family Remix wasn’t renewed. He said, “There is no Season 2 from Hulu.” The blended family show was initially ordered by Hulu and later moved to its subsidiary platform, Freeform, under the Disney umbrella. Although he wishes it was better news, he said, “But we loved doing Season 1, and who knows? Things may change and we may pop up somewhere doing something, but the bottom line is we’re always a family.”
New Projects On The Horizon
Early in the season, Wayne Brady shared that it was a real fear of his that people might not want him in their “homes” after watching who he really is. However, even though The Family Remix didn’t get a renewal, he knows there are other avenues he wants to connect with viewers. Wayne teases that the “core four” have other projects in the works. Wayne, Maile Masako, Mandie Taketa, and Jason Fordham, “have new things coming out.” While he didn’t give all the details away just yet, Wayne said he is developing a new sitcom. Elaborating, he reveals, “[Mandie and I], we have a production company. We have a couple of shows that are being developed right now.” Additionally, he plans to return to Broadway in July.
Overcoming Challenges Is His Middle Name
Undeniably, Wayne Brady: The Family Remix was a passion project for Wayne Brady. He wanted people to understand that families can operate in whatever way works best for the family members. He received some backlash for portraying his life with his ex-wife and her boyfriend (who was a former dancer for him). But, it was their goal to show a glimpse of a different family dynamic. However, Wayne admits that their current family workings didn’t always look like they do now. He confessed that it took him ten years of therapy to be “alright” with Jason. Now they see each other as “brothers” and continue to work together. The show gave him a way to share many of his life secrets with the world. His openness will continue as he moves forward with new shows.
