It’s the dawning of a new era in the talk show world … because promotion has begun for Sherri Shepherd‘s new daytime talk show, which is moving into the exact spot where “The Wendy Williams Show” once stood.

Not only is Sherri movin’ into the same studio, but a billboard for Wendy’s show used to be in that EXACT same spot.
Production sources tell TMZ … the studio redesign’s coming along pretty well … with the set displaying bright, cheery colors, including light blue and yellow tones to reflect Sherri’s personality, similar to the look from the poster.
We’re told the show is pretty much booked well into the Fall, and our sources say viewers can expect some of Sherri’s famous celeb pals to come through during the premiere week.
