We certainly cannot get enough of Ellen DeGeneres, ever! The loved comedian and talk-show host now doesn't just have one or two but four shows planned for streaming service, HBO Max. Yes! That's right. According to The Hollywood Reporter, the WarnerMedia streaming platform has greenlit three series from the comedian — unscripted shows Ellen's Home Design Challenge and First Dates Hotel and animated kids' series Little Ellen — and is developing a fourth, a docuseries titled Finding Einstein.

DeGeneres announced the news Friday on her daytime talk show — and also gave each member of the studio audience a free two-year subscription to HBO Max, which is scheduled to launch in spring 2020.

"Ellen is a singular talent, and a powerhouse, creative triple-threat that we are lucky to have now bringing her talents to bear on behalf of HBO Max,” said Kevin Reilly, chief content officer for HBO Max and president of TNT, TBS and TruTV. “Ellen’s flair for home design and matchmaking will most certainly inspire and delight — but HBO Max is full service, so as not to leave the kids out she’s bringing them back to the hilarious misadventures of her childhood in an imaginative animated series."

Said DeGeneres, "I'm very excited to bring my new shows to HBO Max. I don't know who Max is, but I can't wait to work with him." Ellen's Home Design Challenge, First Dates Hotel and Finding Einstein bolster the unscripted roster at HBO Max, which also includes voguing competition Legendary and another design-centered series, the globe-trotting The Greatest Space. Little Ellen is among the first originals for HBO Max aimed at kids.
