"I can't wait to get back to work and back to our studio. And, yes, we're gonna talk about it," DeGeneres said, while referring to the controversy that rocked the show.

The 62-year-old host had come under fire in July after dozens of employees of the show came forward in an explosive report from Buzzfeed, alleging sexual harassment and misconduct by some of the show's top executive producers.
