Tucker Carlson (Fox News screen grab)
With the massive news this afternoon that Bill O’Reilly is officially out at Fox News, Fox has now announced that Tucker Carlson will be taking the coveted 8 pm slot.
Tucker Carlson Tonight will be moving up from 9 pm, which will now be the home of The Five, co-hosted by Kimberly Guilfoyle, Dana Perino, Bob Beckel, Greg Gutfeld, Jesse Watters, and Juan Williams.

Eric Bolling will be getting the 5 pm slot on May 1st. Next week Fox’s Special Report with Bret Baier will be on next week from 5-7 PM.
Martha MacCallum‘s 7 pm program The First 100 Days will change its name after those first 100 days to The Story with Martha MacCallum.
Sean Hannity remains in his 10 pm timeslot.

Perfect, I can stop watching after Tucker.
...and still DVR Hannity.
Judge Jeanine might be the one for that slot after Tucker...
Shouldn't it be The Six?
The History Channel welcomes this change
What a difference. Tucker actually listens to the answers to questions he has asked....most of the time. He also easily exposes the fools who think they are smarter than the host.
I thought for sure Watters World was gonna be on there somewhere...endless spring break and Caochella festival coverage !
Now that’s an unwatchable lineup.
Exactly! I abhor the Five/Six!
The five would be pretty good if it weren’t for Beckel, and Williams.
maybe Judge Jeanine’s demographics don’t skew young enough, I think she would be great!
Eric Bolling with his own gig is a plus. One of the few really solid conservatives at Fox.
In general, this is a better lineup that we have now. And they took my advice almost. I wanted Hannity, Tucker, The Five (or something similar.) I’ll settle for Tucker, The Five and Hannity.
actually, it should be the seven
the blurb left off Jasper
I can’t imagine them finding 4 more nitwits. That is the most insufferable show out there.
Tucker is great, this will produce bigger ratings than BOR because he doesn’t have BOR’s negatives and will be able to command the best guests and talent.
I don’t care for The Five no matter what time they put it on, but am happy for Eric Bolling who always does a workmanlike job, and for Martha.
Jesse Watters is the best new talent on any network in a long time, and he will be honing his skills on the weekend and getting ready...for his world.
Good thing it’s baseball season. Can’t stand Gutfeld. He shouts too much. Might watch an occasional episode if Watters is substituting for GG, and Juan Williams isn’t on. I would prefer Geraldo to Williams and Beckel.
