27. You have to be kidding. Colbert was losing to Gutfeld? Seriously? Ouch! That's pathetic.

I've always liked Colbert, but if he has lower ratings than Gutfeld, it's hard to imagine his show is making money.

Do you believe Colbert's cancellation was demanded by Trump as part of his settlement with CBS? Fiendish Thingy Friday #18

Because they need ten months to figure out what the hell to do with that slot,who to get, Bengus81 Friday #22

They've already decided what to do with his time slot. Fiendish Thingy Friday #24

So why not announce the firing in early Jan 2025? Why not announce in early May Bengus81 Friday #29

I'm talking about the Matlock reboot with Kathy Bates Fiendish Thingy Friday #32

Never said that SocialDemocrat61 Friday #23

Got a link? Fiendish Thingy Friday #28

Here you go SocialDemocrat61 Friday #51

What's the difference? Fiendish Thingy Friday #55

It's asking a question SocialDemocrat61 Friday #58

Colbert's show had top ratings for their time slot so far in 2025 Dave says Friday #64

Just curious, where are your "links"? rubbersole Friday #57

I'm not claiming Colbert is being silenced Fiendish Thingy Friday #59

Voiding Colbert's contract Mz Pip Friday #37

More expensive than a $60 billion lawsuit from Trump? Fiendish Thingy Friday #46

Have a cite? (Kiddin') "end of season cancellation" could have been negotiated. I have no cite either. Dave says Friday #65

That perspective doesn't make sense to me Fiendish Thingy Friday #73

The Late Show was a cash cow Random Boomer Friday #15

Do you have the numbers? Fiendish Thingy Friday #19

Colbert is the top rated late night show. rubbersole Friday #25

Colbert is not the top rated late night show Fiendish Thingy Friday #30

What's Gutfeld's show like? BannonsLiver Friday #43

Not remotely funny. He's the least funny "comedian" ever. Wiz Imp Friday #50

Thank you. I had assumed the person I asked knew, because they seem REALLY excited about the ratings. BannonsLiver Friday #74

It's right wing "humor" which is never funny. Wiz Imp Friday #75

Conservative "humor" basically making fun of people. Punching down they think. underpants Friday #60

According to Google, Colbert is most often the highest rated. Joinfortmill Friday #45

You're comparing apples to oranges. Wiz Imp Friday #47

Not true, Colbert is top rated in the 11:30 pm eastern time slot - I provided a cite earlier Dave says Friday #67

You have to be kidding. Colbert was losing to Gutfeld? Seriously? Ouch! That's pathetic. Wiz Imp Friday #27

Gutfield has the top rated late night show on television. Nt Fiendish Thingy Friday #31

Wow. That's a sad statement about this country. Gutfeld may be the least funny "comedian" in history. Wiz Imp Friday #35

Which "conservative" based comedy TV shows does he compete against? RoeVWade Friday #39

He's on opposite all the 1130 late night shows Fiendish Thingy Friday #48

You're wrong Wiz Imp Friday #53

He still pulls in higher ratings regardless. Nt Fiendish Thingy Friday #56

Yes, in part because there are many more people watching TV period while it is airing than the number of people Wiz Imp Friday #63

Why does the truth matter? SocialDemocrat61 Friday #62

And it matters that it's conservative. Gutfeld would splinter more if there were other comedy talk shows on TV. RoeVWade Friday #54

I don't watch television, so I'm unsure, but isn't that Gut guy in a different time slot? Dave says Friday #66

There is absolutely zero evidence for that Wiz Imp Friday #61
