 * Nominator's rationale: Fails WP:PERFCAT Rob Sinden (talk) 15:00, 15 August 2016 (UTC)

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * Object -- Appearing on the show (as a guest) would fail PERFCAT, but being a main host for a show is probably close tom being a man's fulltime job. Peterkingiron (talk) 17:31, 17 August 2016 (UTC)
 * Delete per WP:PERFCAT. The defining feature is being American television talk show hosts, where they are already categorized. kennethaw88 • talk 02:39, 22 August 2016 (UTC)

Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, -- Tavix ( talk ) 22:56, 23 August 2016 (UTC)
 * Delete. The only other television talk show in existence (not just in the US but in any other country either) that has a dedicated eponymous category for its hosts is The View — and that's not going to last long, as its CFD discussion just closed delete too. kennethaw88 is correct; the defining feature is the general state of being an, while it is indeed WP:PERFCAT to subcategorize them further by which individual show they happened to be hosts of. Bearcat (talk) 01:17, 24 August 2016 (UTC)
 * Delete - per Bearcat. Not much different than not categorising leads of shows. - jc37 15:46, 25 August 2016 (UTC)
 * Delete per nom & Bearcat; WP:PERFCAT. Carlossuarez46 (talk) 18:59, 25 August 2016 (UTC)
