I was curious to see what the ratings were this year with the criminal running one of my favorite holiday specials.
I of course did not watch this year. I was not interested in throwing up.
2025 ratings with trump hosting, was down 26% this year. 3.01 million viewers.
What a surprise there were that many.

(5,040 posts)will start to make a bigger dent in the center's attendance, and that the Kennedy's win their legal battle against this illegal renaming.
Otherwise before too long we will see Scott Baio and Kevin Sorbo trying to do a Shakespeare play there.

(5,040 posts)Lin- Manuel Miranda pulled a performance of Hamilton that was supposed to celebrate the Declaration of Independence anniversary, Peter Wolf formerly of the J Giles Band, pulled an event promoting a book he wrote, a prominent dance group, and a jazz artist have also pulled out. I think I read somewhere that the only major booking they have left is a week of anniversary performances of Chicago, the play, and that doesn't start until the the end of March. I am hoping the organizers of that will reconsider and pull out as well.
I admire what they are doing. Of course the head of the tsf ass kissing board is threatening to sue them, and is calling them radical leftists pulling a political stunt. What a joke. Tsf and the board are the ones that made politics the issue in the first place, with the illegal name change.
