July 25 (UPI) -- Full Frontal with Samantha Bee has been canceled.

Deadline reported Monday that TBS canceled the late-night talk show after seven seasons. The series was hosted by actress and comedian Samantha Bee.

Bee's reps confirmed to Variety that Full Frontal "will not return to the network in the fall."

"As we continue to shape our new programming strategy, we've made some difficult, business-based decisions," TBS said in a statement. "We are proud to have been the home to Full Frontal with Samantha Bee and thank Sam, and the rest of the Emmy-nominated team for their groundbreaking work."

"We celebrate this extraordinarily talented cast and crew and look forward to exploring new opportunities to work with them in the future," the network added.

The cancellation follows the WarnerMedia-Discovery merger in April. Chad and The Big D were also canceled at TBS, while TNT, TBS and truTV general manager Brett exited his role in May.

Prior to Full Frontal with Samantha Bee, Bee was a correspondent on The Daily Show.

She couldn’t act and she wasn’t funny.

The execs she was servicing got tired of her. No market for over-50 whores except niche porn.

...leftist definition of “funny” is nothing more than mocking and ridiculing those with whom they disagree. Wrapping ugly political comments under the veil of “comedy” doesn’t make it so.

It’s the same with all these late night hosts. They only have one audience, leftists.

Why cancel now? No one ever watched that show before, so it’s not like non-existent ratings bother TBS.

You didn’t miss a thing! I stopped watching TBS altogether because the little promos they’d slip in for her show were always her bashing anything and anybody who isn’t leftist trash in her annoying, breathless little-girl voice.

Good riddance, Sam!

I’ve wondered about Canadians who lecture us Americans that we just aren’t liberal enough, when their home country is more liberal than America in some ways.

Which makes me wonder, if they are telling us how awful America is, why in the sam hill are they in this country in the first place? Why did they voluntarily come to America?

And why the heck would Samantha Bee become an American citizen?

These people are self walking contradictions sometimes.

Her brand of Hatin’-Humor just wore itself out.
The same may be about to happen to others such as Joi Reid or chubby Englishman James Corden. Even the venomous Jimmy Kimmel is now suddenly considering retirement.

Is she the ones that likes the golden showers, or is that Chelsea Handler? I always get those two skanks confused.
