After shifting to virtual audiences amid the pandemic, Ms. DeGeneres had resumed filming with a limited live audience in late October. Attendees were required to wear face masks and sit six feet apart.

Warner Bros. revealed an examination, 3 manufacturers left the program, as well as Ms. DeGeneres asked forgiveness on cam as well as to staff members.
