I grew up with late night talk shows, but sorry Fallon, Colbert, and Kimmel, but it seems the late night talk show is going the way of the buggy whip, especially with their radical leftist bent. The marketplace decides.

[FlingWingFlyer]

I love it a large bit.

[RoosterRedux]

Of course he doesn’t like it. Gutfeld gets all the attention and these liberal hacks hate it.

[woweeitsme]

So the fact that Colbert’s show loses MILLIONS of dollars every year has nothing to do with it?

[TTFlyer]

Jimmy who?

[Don@VB]

He’s a comedian,but that didn’t sound funny.

[Abathar]

Compared to what Johnny Carson and to a lesser extent Letterman (whom I didn’t care for) produced year after year they don’t even have the right to be compared to them.

Beta male get’s bitchy with reality. Hahahahahaha.

[Palio di Siena]

Most people aren’t concerned with Fallon’s likes and dislikes

[kiryandil]

I haven’t watched a minute of the late-night clowns in years.

[silent majority rising]

Sounds like a deep psychosis developing. He should consult with his Psychiatrist.

Jimmy Jim Jim doesn’t like it one bit... but he knows he’s king of the hill... albeit with small stones.

[dforest]

The young people don’t watch late night TV anymore. Particularly because it isn’t entertaining.

These guys need to go get a job.

[econjack]

Know what, Jimmy? I don’t care what you think about anything.

[zeebee]

Don’t forget Jay Leno

[Brian Griffin]

Find up who’s up then.

Figure out what they’d enjoy watching.

Jimmy doesn’t like the thought of being held responsible for creating a product that can’t ever cover it’s own cost.

[Brian Griffin]

“Holding on to anger is like grasping a hot coal with the intent of throwing it at someone else; you are the one who gets burned.”

I did a quick search and Fallon has 15 full time staff.

Colbert has 200 (and is losing $40-$50 million a year).

And Colbert will be on until May 2026, so he wasn’t so much fired as his contract wasn’t renewed.
