The prime time program shuffle resulting from the Bill O'Reilly departure from Fox News Channel is seriously flawed, and will fail quickly with a massive loss of viewers of "The Five".....now slated for the 9:00PM time slot. The show is boring, with only one member of "The Five" worth her salt {KG), and, it is not Dana Perino, who is terrible. The three males are losers with little substance. Bob Beckel and Juan Williams are not dummies...but 100% empty suits!!!
The winning line up would be:
- Martha McCallum at 7:00PM - Tucker Carlson at 8:00PM - Jesse Watters at 9:00PM - Sean Hannity at 10:00PM
A winning combination, IMHO!!!
You couldn’t PAY me to watch a show with Dana PeRINO and Greg Gutfeld in it. The only member of “The Five” with any brains and speaking ability is Kimberly Guilfoyle. She needs to move over to the business channel ASAP.
McCallum should be hawking candy grams, and the Five is unwatchable at any time.
i’ve already nuked all FNC recorder timers except hannity.
FNC will soon be nothing more than another small fish in a sea of fake news outlets like CNN.
FNC has never been a REAL news-gathering organization. They have almost no paid national or international correspondents. They’ve been enormously profitable with minimal expenses by pretending to be a news organization, when in fact they truly are nothing but a bunch of talking heads regurgitating news gathered by other organizations that had to pay to get that news.
However, FNC managed to compensate for the above slight-of-hand by attracting a loyal audience desperate for conservative viewpoints completely absent from all the other media. Without actual news, and without these nonconformist viewpoints, FNC ends up having nothing to offer their current audience, and no matter what FNC ends up doing, they will NEVER attract the Progs who lap up the slops at CNN and MSNBC.
James is nuking the one and only thing unique about FNC: a sometimes conservative viewpoint. FNC is dead, they just don’t know it yet.
If you watched Watters Twitter feed you’d realize that he is the hottest thing to come to Fox. Even O’Reilly called him the best new talent he’d seen in years, and that includes a lot of talented people. I have no idea what you’re talking about regarding his weekend show, it’s well produced, entertaining, informative, and he gets rave reviews.
He’ll be in primetime within a year, I will predict.
Ya know....Rupert Murdoch & his two left-wing sons are missing a great opportunity to create a 100% Conservative Political Cable Channel.
Folks within weeks or a few months you will see Obama care repealed and replaced, and you will see massive tax reform & reductions for both individuals & corporations passed into law!!! You will see two or three more “conservative Judge on the Supreme court. You will see the Democrat Party continue to destroy itself with the loss of all special elections, Kansa, Georgia and Montana. Trump gets stronger with each passing day. Sessions & Kelly are doing massively well with both illegal immigration and drug traffic. And, our military has its MoJo back again and 35,000 coal miners are back to working full time in the USA....I could on!!!
Murdoch...broom them two son idiots you have......Cable TV paradise is looking into your face and you are too dumb to see it!!
There is no combination to replace BOR.
I have not watched regularly but he had a brand that had been molded for 20 years.
FNC will fall and FBN will rise. Lou Dobbs will grow.
Charles Payne is good but needs some dancers.
OANN
YES!!! Great alternative.
Agree the wrong format but we’ll see.
The only thing Watters has going for him is his ability to talk to stupid people.
The Five sucks and will suck more at 9pm Juan is a pathetic DNC talking point hack and Beckle is even worse. I don’t watch it now and won’t
I like Tucker but he lead off debates with a Left Wing nut job are bad as it gives a platform to these people. Yea Tucker smokes them, but I don’t want to hear their nonsense.
Hanity at 10 is too late for me. Move home to 9, Tucker at 8 without Leftie debates. Or save those debates to final segment don’t lead with it.
What about Cuvotto? Move him to 7. I like his business angle, but at 4, we are at work.
I know Judge Jeanine probably doesn’t have to work, but boy I’d just love to see her in one of those time slots. Her weekly show goes by way too quickly!
“I’ve liked Dana since she was Bush’s press secretary”
I think she has a knack for being politically astute, which means she can’t/won’t make bold statements. Miss wishy-washy. But generally she’s as dumb as a stump. I like it when she makes grammatical errors on The Five, and the other four laugh at her.
I like Jesse and I hope he gets a shot. His street interviews are classic, but depressing when you realize that these people vote and need to find work
Jimmy boy will be happy to see it blow up. He’ll probably start recruiting at the BBC to raise the tone of Fox and thereby destroy it utterly and completely.
Dana, Bob, & Juan are the most irritating ones. It’s barely watchable because of them. Dana so perfectly manifests the arrogant RINO stereotype. Nauseating.
OAN! YES! Surely some wealthy conservative investors could help them grow large enough to give Fox some serious competition.
With Murdoch’s liberal sons’ increasing expanding roles/power, Fox will soon circle the drain, leaving a great opening for OAN, RSBN, etc. to fill.
I think it bugged O’Reilly that his radio show tanked while Sean’s was more successful, and is still on the air.
Fox is forgetting about who brought them to the dance - they’ll be very alone very soon....
With you on all counts. Alas the last.
