Tucker has become unwatchable - vanity

Posted on 02/14/2017 6:36:37 PM PST by RightInEastLansing

Tucker has totally lost control of his interviews. The slimy liberals have learned to just talk over him and never let him get a word in edgewise. Too bad, I use to look forward to his show. Now it has become a platform for the rabid, insane left.

Oh dear...you poor no life baby, so filled with hate and irrationality, that to make yourself feel better, you smear everyone who was born before you, delusionally imagine that you are the ONLY one who has ever read certain books and understands things that other just can't, and make up crazy things with which to impugn others with.

Yes, I'm laughing AT you.

Yes, you keep contradicting yourself.

And no, you aren't going to save the world, American, nor clean up any mess at all.

That’s what I thought. You got nothing. You lost, lady. You’re experiencing the final triggering. Raging against the dying of the light and all that.

Thank you for the ping to this thread, Jane. Wow, looks like I'm not the only one complaining about Tucker's new show.

I wish I had more time to read the posts and comment, but I'm short on time today. Will return ASAP. Thanks again! :-)

I'm just SO tired of night after night of THIS kind of crap on Tucker's show:

'More Dangerous Than Hitler'?! Tucker Battles Anti-Trump Protester

Although Tucker *finally* cut her off, that little nutcake went on and on for FAR too long, and managed to get her website out on air courtesy of Tucker's show. (She actually held up a leaflet detailing the site for several seconds)

Meanwhile, he had other guests after her who started to discuss some very interesting topics, but they had to be cut short because he had to fit in yet another Alt Left moonbat into the prime part of his show. That includes the CATO Institute think tank guy Tucker 'took on' at the top of his show last night.

I like Tucker, but I wish he'd change his show's format, and keep these leftist moonbat appearances to a bare minimum. I'm sick of wasting my time listening to these idiots, and disgusted they're getting so much air time on FNC.

Apparently Tucker has lost his fire...so sick of the libertard’s newest platform = Tucker Carlson’s show

Exactly. I wonder if Tucker is trying to be Sean Hannity, who always annihilates his libtard guests. Tucker: You're no Sean Hannity.

Hannity DOES cut the mike off, on idiot guests who go off on a rant and O'Rielly shouts over them. Tucker just sits there and looks the fool!

Yup, pretty much. I don't get why Tucker gets such great ratings. I wonder how long that will last...

I like Tucker but have decided that he is not suitable dinner time viewing - too confrontational.

It's funny... I love it when Sean Hannity annihilates his libtard guests (successfully), but when Tucker "takes on" these libtards, it just ticks me off. Seems to me the libs are getting the better of Tucker, and they successfully promote their idiotic messages to the masses via FNC to boot.

Agree...the moonbattery segments, on Tucker’s show, are oddly given way too much air/promo time. Not enough push back with FACTS going on, with Tucker.

"I'm just SO tired of night after night of THIS kind of crap on Tucker's show."

I was the first one here a couple weeks ago to point out that Tucker is losing control of too many of his shows. The program has become a sounding board for leftists and radicals who rave on unchecked except for some interspersed futile squeaks and giggles by Tuck hoping to rein them in.

I sent emails regarding the program's failing format both to the Fox news manager and an email and snail mail letter to Tucker two weeks ago. I also sent a link to an FR thread addressing the subject and full of pithy comments.

No rely or acknowledgement....although I hear Fox is good about reading correspondence from viewers.

This most recent fruitcake radical-ette was the final straw. The over-talking, squeaking, ranting, raving, shouting and garbled cross-talk in this segment caused me to flip to another channel, "Forensic Files", to be exact...which is crime of a different sort.

I won't be abused in my own front room by such hysterical and time-wasting garbage when Carlson interviews all these strange crazies and gives them floor time to spread their propaganda virtually unchecked.

I do SO want him to succeed in this time slot.

I understand Tucker's modus operandi with the libs perfectly. I know exactly what he's trying to do. We all do !

But it's not working out for him the way it should. It's out of control.

His producers should get to work on some creative and interesting ideas for a superior hour-long format where he can still utilize his great debating and baiting skills all the while keeping order in the court.....and he can keep the freaks more harnessed when they utilize their deliberate Alinsky techniques to monopolize and break down the show.

It's SO obvious they're all doing this !

It may still be evolving- its a new show.

But I like when he gives them all the rope they want to hang themselves.

It may not be graceful, but they usually come off as the lunatics they usually are.

There is a whole internet meme on the topic - it shows Tucker with that quizzical look on his face saying something along the lines of “That look you get when someone says something really really stupid”

"I like when he gives them all the rope to hang themselves."

I agree. That's why I used the term "baiting" in describing one of Tucker's best techniques. He poses questions in a disarming manner and they fall right into his trap...like the spider and the flies.

I spotted his MO when he first came on, not only his art of letting his guests hang themselves but also his facial expressions which range from the bemused, to the intended deliberate stoicism, to the veiled evil-eye to the masterful incredulousness, all of which expressions speak volumes to the viewing audience.

I don't think you understand that what I and others here are being put off by is the sheer amount of time he gives to propagandists, nutty professors, marxist, radicals and loony-tuners to rave, rant and spout off intermingled with the deafening cacaphony of shouting, ravings, over-talking and undecipherable jabs, counter-jabs and screeches which is enough to make one grab the clicker and go elsewhere for 10 minutes or so.

I, personally, like to understand what I'm hearing on a program.

Tucker, we love what you're doing, but always remember, a littler dab will do ya!

I may add, his show last night was calm and professional and I understood everybody....and it had the right amount of cutting edge and dragon-slaying. Maybe he's getting a message from his listeners.

Thank you for your astute analysis. I hope it gets to Tucker before he loses too many in his audience.

Perhaps, but just think, Carlson is also allowing the sane people in this country to really hear from people who are so loony they need psychiatric care, or maybe commitment to a mental institution. I do understand that a decent human being only has so much tolerance for these folks though, I know I’ve had to turn Tucker off a couple of times because of “sensory overload” which translates into wanting to kick the crap out of the person being “interviewed.”

I agree with your analysis, but, as I opined prior, and as you appear to agree with, too much overkill is too much!

But he just lets them rant on, without saying anything. Oh sure, he rolls his eyes like a 12 year old, or nervously laughs at them, or smirks, which just makes him look like the idiot.

Some of his "guests" are nobodies at all, some are just background noise, whilst a few of these unknowns are really dangerous/could prove to be dangerous and Tucker doesn't ever attempt to refute them.

Yes, I know some people enjoy his show and like him. The same can be said for BLOODY KELLY, whom I didn't are for either. Still and all, pre-primary season, some of Kelly's shows were okay/not bad at all.

As for me, I've just about given up on watching Tucker's show and when he has the fat, ugly, brainwashed, stupid, self proclaimed "COMMIE"/"SOCIALIST" YouTuber on, perhaps others will wake up and stop watching this unwatchable show too.

I don't know who came up with the idea for Tucker's show, but it STINKS! It isn't even close to being "fair&balanced", he acts like either some dopey 12 year old girl, or the stereotypical very early '60s pompous, self congratulatory, ELITE little Ivy League Sopohmore/Junior Posh/elite NE boarding school toady.

William F. Buckley he ain't; he's just a wannabe!
