Ellen's Design Challenge

So I enjoy the work of the designers on the show - and the innovative and forward thinking designs!

In the last three episodes I watched - where's Ellen? The periodic video clips of her I don't find amusing, and really destroy the vibe of the show.

After watching the show it became VERY obvious that they are just using her name to create interest - or is it the other way around???

If the show is named after her, I would expect her to be an ACTIVE PART of the show and expect to see her every week - otherwise, take her name off the show and eliminate the annoying video clips with her. Doing that, you'd have the same, if not, a better show.
