Rosie O’Donnell addressed her show’s cancellation on Monday.

The talk program, on Oprah’s OWN Network, will be dropped after its first season and leave the air this month.

“I came here to Chicago with the best of intentions, trying, really, to do… what I thought would be kind of easy for me,” O’Donnell says into the camera. “But it wasn’t really that easy.”

In the clip, O’Donnell has nothing but good things to say about her boss, saying, ”Oprah has treated me with nothing but dignity and respect from Day One.”

“Here’s the bottom line: It’s a business. It didn’t make financial sense to continue the show,” acknowledges O’Donnell.

The host is not bitter about the show’s run ending, observing, “It’s not a nightmare. It’s a good thing.”

O’Donnell did NOT respond to nemesis Donald Trump’s less-than-polite assessment of the show’s cancellation.
