LOS ANGELES, March 8 (UPI) -- CBS says it has renewed its U.S. daytime chat show "The Talk" for a third season.

Hosts Julie Chen, Sara Gilbert, Sharon Osbourne, Sheryl Underwood and Aisha Tyler will return with the show when it starts its new season in September.

"We are thrilled with the evolution and growth of 'The Talk,'" Nina Tassler, president of CBS Entertainment, said in a statement Thursday. "The show has high energy, spirited conversation, relevant topics, and the audience is responding."

"We're proud that 'The Talk' has already established great brand identity in only its second season," said David Stapf, president of CBS Television Studios. "Much of the success can be attributed to our hosts' chemistry and the work of our producers, whose selection of topics and guests are clearly resonating with viewers."
