CNN’s flashy new morning show co-hosted by Don Lemon, Poppy Harlow and Kaitlan Collins bombed in its debut episode on Tuesday.

Despite heavy promotion from the network, “CNN This Morning’s” first show drew a mere 387,000 viewers and averaged 71,000 viewers in the advertiser-coveted 25-54 age demographic, according to Nielsen ratings.

By comparison, MSNBC’s “Morning Joe” amassed 793,000 viewers head to head from 6 to 9 am ET. Meanwhile, Fox News’ “Fox & Friends” came out on top, averaging nearly 1.5 million viewers.

No show across CNN, MSNBC and Fox News ranked lower than Lemon’s program on Tuesday.

Does it start with a picture of Don Lemon’s face framed by a big daisy against a blue-sky background, with the sun in the upper left of the frame?

Cooking With Jack in YouTube has more viewers.

When life gives you lemons

Don’t watch

[Nextrush]

Took the words from my mouth.

CNN could hire me to do it but I wouldn’t last 30 minutes before I would get yanked for saying something unacceptable.

[eeriegeno]

Maybe would be better to name it ‘POS in the Morning’....

[I want the USA back]

Good. Affirmative action hires usually fail.

[Bshaw]

Doesn’t matter what time slot you move sh!+ to, it’s still sh!+…

Positive proof that a “lemon” can be smelled across the Internet.

“ CNN could hire me to do it but I wouldn’t last 30 minutes before I would get yanked for saying something unacceptable.”

Morning Mayhem with Monica Crowley, Ann Coulter and Michelle Malkin. That would be a winner for CNN. Lets the gals make fun of liberals for a few hours.

Another CNN Lemon.

There are radio stations in our market that have larger listening audiences than

the LEMON.

As Trump once told Wulf Blister (before the 2016 campaign started) “Be glad there’s only 20,000 people watching you make a fool of yourself

[M-cubed]

part of the problem here is.....nobody trusts a Frenchman to give them the news.... Don Le’Mon included .../s

[DAC21]

That will leave a bitter taste in Lemons mouth. Not the first or last time.

The show went into the toilet at 18X the speed of light!
