For 17 seasons, Steve Wilkos has not only evolved as a host, but also has the unique ability to relate to people from all walks of life. His willingness to get to the heart of the matter has kept 'The Steve Wilkos Show' at the forefront and will continue to do so for the show's 18th season.

I also want to congratulate Steve on a milestone 30 years in television. We watched him take charge on 'The Jerry Springer Show' in 1994 to then helming his own show beginning in 2007, which was an extraordinary achievement. We look forward to another year with the show's extremely talented production team and our loyal audience.
Wilkos added:
I'm incredibly grateful to the fans of the show as their continued support is the reason we've made it to a remarkable season 18. I love doing my show and look forward to continuing to make a positive and long-lasting impact on the lives of our in-studio guests and at-home viewers.
