They killed it themselves with their TDS.

Steve Colbert is the only one of those that I have seen. He’s a supposed “comedian,” but he has never made me laugh. Every time I see him, he’s angry. Maybe if comedians start being funny instead of angry, people will watch them.

Johnny Carson was worth tuning into night after night. I’ve shown some old Johnny Carson shows to my children. Jay Leno was funny when his writers were on strike. I liked his Jay Walking and Headlines segments.

These shows have fake ratings and were financially supported by taxpayers I’m thinking.

Yeah. I remember one night they brought a small hovercraft into the studio. Carson got on it, started it up and blew all the tiles off the floor- they were flying everywhere. It was great.

There will never be another Johnny

Greg is killing the ABC/CBS/NBC late nite party propagandists who pretend to be comedians.

Never paid any mind to any TV late night talk show. But, used to listen to late night radio talk shows.

And i miss Art Bell. The father of it all as far as late night radio talk shows go.

The only late-night show host who's not a total @$$hole is Jimmy Fallon.

Gutfeld and his guests may get a little raunchy, but one thing we get from his show is the truth. That’s why he’s at the top of the heap.

At least Gutfield is telling the truth. But his rumor does not appeal to me.

I preferred Leno. He was more of a "natural".

Seth Meyers is utterly insufferable. He has a severe case of TDS.

They were unwilling to report the news honestly so the corporate media is dying.

They were unwilling to entertain and be neutral when they strayed into political comedy so late nite is dying.

Leftists just exude hate and bitterness all the time. Its a huge turnoff to everybody else.

That's why Fallon got the message. But I think he's the only one who does not have TDS. He would avoid making Trump jokes but his bosses/audience demanded him to do that so he has to go with the program.

If they were smart, they would have given Craig Ferguson one of those slots.

Leno wasn’t as good as Carson but he did at least try to be funny and entertaining. He at least, was a professional. He did not come across as bitter, angry, preachy, intolerant, ie as a Leftist. All those after him did/do.
