etalk (formerly eTalk Daily) is a Canadian entertainment news show hosted by Ben Mulroney and Danielle Graham. It is broadcast on CTV, CTV Two and E!
Hosting duties are shared by Ben Mulroney and Danielle Graham. The program covers the latest news in film, television, music and more, with special coverage of major annual awards shows including the Academy Awards and the Juno Awards. etalk was launched in 2002. Regular features include interviews with reporters Traci Melchor, Leah Miller and gossip with Lainey. Other reporters include Susie Wall, Quebec correspondent Sophie Grégoire, and celebrity reporter Jully Black.
The series began as Entertainment Now (or eNow), originally hosted by Lin Eleoff, who was replaced by Carla Collins, who later co-anchored with Dan Duran, and began airing weekly on BBS (later absorbed into CTV) in 1995. Much as now, in its original form eNow used a toned-down version of the standard entertainment magazine format. in 2000, eNow relaunched as etalk, a weekly entertainment-oriented talk show hosted by Ben Mulroney with a variety of rotating guest panelists. It was produced by the CTV-owned talktv (now MTV) and taped on the set of The Chatroom, of which Mulroney was a co-host.
