Replacement for Beck: "THE FIVE" (Vanity)
7/11/2011

Posted on 07/11/2011 2:28:05 PM PDT by KeyLargo

Barf alert. Snooze alert......

I started to watch the replacement FOX show which fills the time slot of Glenn Beck.

There is a panel of five talking heads sitting around a table. One of the talking heads is Democrat Bob Beckel.

What a joke.

I might as well watch the Obmama network MSNBC.

The Five’: Fox Announces New Show to Fill Glenn Beck Time Slot

Posted on June 30, 2011 at 5:18pm by Jonathon M. Seidl Jonathon M. Seidl

It‘s no secret that today is Glenn Beck’s last day on the Fox News Channel. He’ll sign off at 6 pm and begin his own online network called GBTV. And ever since he announced he was leaving his daily program on the top-rated cable network, rumors have swirled about who would replace him in the 5 pm slot. Now, we have an answer. And it involves multiple people.

The network announced that it will fill Beck’s slot with an ensemble program featuring a roundtable of rotating Fox personalities. Those include Greg Gutfeld, Juan Williams, Dana Perino, Judge Andrew Napolitano, Geraldo Rivera, Andrea Tantaros, Eric Bolling, Monica Crowley, Bob Beckel and Kimberly Guilfoyle.

The new show, which is a temporary summer replacement for Beck, will launch July 11.

Is Gutfeld cracking wise or is he playing this like a series news program?

I saw Bob Beckel and immediately shut the TV off. I wanted DNC talking points I could watch other stations.

Frankly, as much as I think Beck was a harbinger of a very dire threat, his demeanor between the show (ominous) and radio (idiotic banter with cohosts) is perplexing. I believe he’s burnt out and searching. There is something not right about him, regardless of whatever insight he has.

I love Gutfield and this show has promise. I’m so glad they got rid of Beck. His faux philosophic-religious/conspiracy kick had me flicking to FBN as fast as I could get to the remote.

Dana Perrino and Greg Gutfield make Beckel *almost* bearable.

Very well put. I used to enjoy his radio show until he got too preachy there, several years before his Fox show. I like the Beck that would appear with O’Reilly - he was almost enjoyable there, but the doom and gloom stuff he had on his own show was just weird. True to a degree, but carried to the extreme.

I’m watching Pawn Star reruns on the History channel.

Chumley is more intelligent than any of the liberals on the 5

I can’t stand any of these shows where all the jerks have to talk at the same time.
I do love Dana Perino though.

Beckle is as bad as Alan Colmes. He says the most idiotic crap. He is actually comparing the tax exempt status of Media Matters to the NRA. Wow. What a d!ck.

All part of the ongoing liberalization of Fox. It happens to all of them eventually. I don’t watch it anymore anyway, so who cares.

I will stick with The Willis Report on FOX Business in the same time slot and actually learn something useful.

Gutfeld should stick to his clown show overnight.

Beckel’s gravitational pull is so great that he really weighs down the others, regardless of how good they are.

Whenever I see or hear Colmes on O’Reilly the TV is changed to another channel.
