Syndicated talker “The Wendy Williams Show” has landed Nick Cannon as a fill-in host for the titular host.

• Cannon will helm the show on Monday, Feb. 4, Tuesday, Feb. 5 and Wednesday, Feb. 6, according to a post on the show’s Instagram account.
• The post promises the all new episodes will feature the show’s signature “Hot Topics” segment along with “Ask Wendy” (or “Ask Nick”?) and celebrity interviews.
• So far the show has not indicated what is planned for Feb. 7 and 8. Like most talk shows, “Wendy” typically tapes Friday’s show on the proceeding Thursday.
• The show has also not announced when Williams will return.
• The continued delay in William’s return is the latest in a string of delays, odd on air behavior and even an on air medical scare the show has endured.
