Oz announced his run for Senate last month.

"Dr. Oz" will be replaced by "The Good Dish," a food-focused show co-hosted by his daughter, "The Chew" vet Daphne Oz, as well as Gail Simmons and Jamika Pessoa.

“Audiences have been loving what Daphne, Gail, and Jamika have been serving up during their weekly segments on ‘The Dr. Oz Show’ for years,” said Zack Hernandez, senior vice president and general sales manager of U.S. Syndication Sales for Sony Pictures Television. “We have long believed 'The Good Dish' would make an excellent stand-alone series, and are delighted to be able to deliver this fresh take on the cooking genre to our station partners and their viewers across the country.”

“The Good Dish” will launch on January 17 in over 90% of the U.S., including New York, Los Angeles, Chicago, Philadelphia, and Dallas.
