Cozi TV (btw, thanks for the spelling correction!) came with our cable company’s package. But almost everything has an app, so maybe that’s how to get it.
Me 3. And if you ever pulled what passes today for "humorous satire" on Carson's audience, you never came back and your career had a hole in it ever afterward ("Remember what he did the last time he was on The Tonight Show?").
Late night comedy is far from comedy. It's pathetic and I stopped watching anything those fools put out the first time President Trump was elected. It's not talent, it's every single thing that's wrong with the left. Thankfully, we all have a choice about what we put in front of us. Maybe someday someone will notice the obvious truth of no one cares about the opinion of some washed up late night so called comedian.
What I like about Gutfeld is how so many of his guests are really funny, sometimes the least likely, serious person joins and cracks me up. He’s really good booking his guests.
We shutdown our “idiot box” for good sometime at the outset of the plandemic. Before that (best decision ever!), I simply cannot recall watching ANY late night “programming” for at least a decade or maybe two!
Soooooo, who the feck even watches that shite?! Apparently, virtually no one!
It’s a start!
Merry Christmas y’all! I will be weaving my basket for y’all Deplorables! 😂❤️💥🪴😎💯🎊
When the whole Colbert/Kimmel things happened, several friends were carrying on about how popular these shows were. I gave them the ratings numbers and they countered with "their shows are sold out every night! It's hard to get tickets!" I got bored with the "conversation" before I could tell them that the tickets are free (easily Googled).
I usually say that America peaked in 1850. Not because of slavery, since I picture a singular family on the prairie, but because the moral rot of the cities hadn’t begun its skyrocket yet.
As for the entertainment industry, people speak of the seedy underbelly of Hollywood from its very beginnings, but be that as it may, at least they kept their dancing monkeys in line. Now the stars (and jocks) get a few million in their pockets and suddenly think we give two shites about their very poorly informed opinions.
Seedy is correct, but more evil than anyone thinks. Check out Elizabeth Nickson sub Absurdistan. The facts of how this world is run and by whom would stand your hair up. The British Banks and royalty run our current world system (ours too), from our nations inception. Also check out “Prometheum Action website and YouTube. Awesome but scary.
You left out "too boring" in your poll. Not just predictable, but unfunny, boring as hell and full of smugness and bullshit. Anyone who can see the truth will be put off by this pap.
I’ve always found the set-up of American late-night chat shows slightly off-putting. The host is positioned behind a desk, seated higher than the guests, and the arrangement immediately establishes an imbalance. It’s a visual hierarchy that places the host in a position of authority while the guest appears subordinate, almost as if they’ve been summoned rather than invited.
Rather than feeling like an open, shared conversation, the dynamic can come across as performative and controlled. The desk acts as both a physical and psychological barrier, separating the host from the guest and the audience from any sense of real intimacy. Even when the exchange is warm or humorous, the staging subtly reinforces who holds the power in the room, shaping the tone of the interaction before a single word is spoken.
In a way it beats watching Drew Barrymore’s show (if she still has one) get on the floor next to her guest and do weird things with them. Think when she did that with Kamala, calling her Momela.🤢. You may need to do an internet search for that video clip.
I use to always watch the tonight show Johnny Carson was GOAT he had truly interesting guests on and he was funny as hell. Jay Leno was just a step down from Johnny. Jimmy Fallon is just plain unwatchable. He has turned the tonight show into a bad SNL skit that just never ends. The guests suck as it’s just whoever is pushing a new movie or book etc. the music sucks. I refuse to ever watch it again.
Hey, "Sweddy Balls" was one of the funniest skits in that particular SNL group (yes, I'm old enough to remember when it began). You have NPR "whisper" show, and Alec actually being funny.
For the record, PBS was only good for Monty Python, the original "All Creatures Great and Small" series, and the Halifax Tattoo (when NOT interrupted EVERY FRIGGIN 20 minutes while pleading for money )
I used to LOVE The Moth radio hour on NPR (not always funny but often).... and also went through a brief Absolutely Fabulous period (pretty sure PBS ran BBC shows)...
Now I just watch Masterpiece and Nova, Nature and Secrets of the dead. But I have to watch for science lies now too. 🙄The lying news there, which people buy hook line and sinker because the lies are told in snootier tones, is a no go. Masterpiece I watch on Prime, and we are canceling cable in January. I can get the rest streaming on the PBS app. But yet we still get the ads. The amount gradually increasing to the point I can go to the bathroom, start dinner and rearrange my bookshelves within the same ad.
Yeah. I’ve never bought or signed up for any of it before. I enjoy Masterpiece. Which I pay for the app on Prime. Not sure what you mean but dropping the tv portion on Spectrum will save nearly $200.00 a month. We may switch Wi-Fi provider too. Another service for that is in our small town now. My other tv watches I can get on free apps.
I vote “all of the above “ in the poll. I stopped watching these idiots during the pandemic. They just aren’t funny at all. I too miss Johnny Carson. He was always funny.
All of the above!! I vote that "all over the above" should be added as a separate option because that's usually my choice. These fake comics who are just reading scripts are just that. Fake.
Thank God for Jim Breuer and other comics that are still funny and relevant. Here is a great example! https://youtu.be/cHwrkj6Q6Ag
Television has become a depression inducing FOMO machine with a few minutes of actual entertainment thrown in. Late night "entertainment" exists to throw gas on the leftists dumpster fire.
I'd like to vote "All of the Above?" As for Jimmy K in particular, could someone please tell him that the exclamation point (Jimmy Kimmel Live!) seems a little desperate?
The way things work now is that there isn’t all that much separation between the late night lib lectures to the woman who lost her mind and her manners in a Target store recently.
I miss Johnny Carson.
Oh man, me too! And while I’m being nostalgic, I even miss Steve Allen.
You can still watch him on YouTube
And I do now and then! Just watched an old one with Jonathan Winters. All of them still make me laugh.
There’s also a cable channel that features Carson shows. Is it “Cozy TV” maybe?
Cozy TV??? That sounds adorable. Hmm... I wonder how well "Rowan and Martin's Laugh In" stands up to time?
When something is funny, it’s funny forever!
Oh, apparently it's "Cozi TV" (with an i) Hmm... no "local provider" in South Dakota. I'm curious if they have an app I can install on my TV.
Oops and there is a "cozy.tv" too! Which looks more like a podcast website.
Cozi TV (btw, thanks for the spelling correction!) came with our cable company’s package. But almost everything has an app, so maybe that’s how to get it.
I prefer DVDs. {smile}
Me 3. And if you ever pulled what passes today for "humorous satire" on Carson's audience, you never came back and your career had a hole in it ever afterward ("Remember what he did the last time he was on The Tonight Show?").
And….. Jack Parr reruns (cause I’m not THAT old 😉🙋♀️) .
I’ve been seeing clips on YT under various comedians I wanted more of. Robin Williams? Carson couldn’t contain himself!

"Late night comedy is far from comedy."
MSM is far from news.
Hollywood is far from entertaining.
Health care is far from healthy.
Congress is far from representing or governing.
What I like about Gutfeld is how so many of his guests are really funny, sometimes the least likely, serious person joins and cracks me up. He’s really good booking his guests.
I agree! We watch him all the time.
I really enjoy Michelle Tafoya former sportscaster. Her laugh cracks me up.
At this point, they're getting the same talking points from the administration that AP News, Reuters and the NYT get.
It's just more propaganda.
Pravda, indeed.

My poll option: "I no longer watch"

Shut up and dance.
Shut up and act.
Shut up and sing.
Shut up and dribble.
Just shut up.

I am hooked on Elizabath Nickson. She is dead serious, not a comedian. And has a perspective that works for me.
Elizabeth knows stuff.
I second the Prometheum Action recommendation. Found them recently and I am hooked.

Benefit: everyone can get more sleep and stop staying up to watch this garbage.

Yeah, why a desk? It’s not an office, after all! Gutfeld at least sits in a chair, just as his colleagues do. No desk.
In a way it beats watching Drew Barrymore’s show (if she still has one) get on the floor next to her guest and do weird things with them. Think when she did that with Kamala, calling her Momela.🤢. You may need to do an internet search for that video clip.
After that episode ran, I called Harris "Mammy Kammy." I was put in Free Press time out.
Ballers is one of their funniest skits!
They absolutely nailed it with that one 😂👏👸
I use to always watch the tonight show Johnny Carson was GOAT he had truly interesting guests on and he was funny as hell. Jay Leno was just a step down from Johnny. Jimmy Fallon is just plain unwatchable. He has turned the tonight show into a bad SNL skit that just never ends. The guests suck as it’s just whoever is pushing a new movie or book etc. the music sucks. I refuse to ever watch it again.
Luckily, at this point I’m not able to stay awake for the abuse. My last late night viewing was Carson. Seeing and hearing clips is enough.
I watch the "late night comedians" on Youtube, at any time of day. Certainly not at night.
Hey, "Sweddy Balls" was one of the funniest skits in that particular SNL group (yes, I'm old enough to remember when it began). You have NPR "whisper" show, and Alec actually being funny.

Two thumbs up for "Ab Fab." 👍👍

Just a sub for the local fundraiser breaks

I think PBS also brought us the comedy of The Red Green Show. We still watch it on YouTube.
I’m in Western NY, and I think I first saw this on either CBC or CHCH in Hamilton, back when our cable systems carried Canadian channels
