When it comes to television ratings, Wendy Williams became the hot topic this week. The Wendy Williams Show was the No. 1 rated syndicated daytime talk show with the key demographic of women 25-54 in its sixth season premiere, according to Nielsen ratings.
The daytime talk show anchored by the outspoken host increased its rating by 36 percent from last year, meaning The Wendy Williams Show has officially gone from the little engine that could to king of the road.

The show beat out all other competitors, including Ellen, which came in second, Live With Kelly and Michael, which came in third, followed by Dr. Phil, The Real, Steve Harvey, Meredith Viera, Dr. Oz and The Queen Latifah Show, in that order. 
Congratulations to Wendy and her team for this amazing milestone, and catch The Wendy Williams Show every weeknight at midnight on BET!
