Everything liberals touch turns into ____
Conan was the one who was trying to claim Trump was wrong when he described Haiti as a “Shithole”.
Uhh sorry Conan. Haiti is a shithole. It has always been a shithole. It will always be a shithole. How could it not be - its full of Haitians.
The old late night format was insider entertainment where they joked around and kidded each other and the audience got to feel like it knew the entertainers as friends.
They forgot that their target audience doesn’t stay the same age forever. They got older and the comedy got old and stale. The demographic target just turned them off and went to bed.
The newer younger audience doesn’t want to watch the old fogey comedians.....................
I believe Leno got the boot for making jokes about the Messiah, excuse me, Obama.
Jimmy Fallon is always laughing at everything, it sounds fake and forced. He is not funny by himself. He was on Seinfelds “Comedians getting coffee” show and Seinfeld had to feed him softball lines so he could sound funny. It was a struggle... other comedians he had on the show were funny.
Jimmy Kimmel is smug and unfunny. He once said (paraphrasing) he does not care if his ratings fall, that he was going to say what he wants about conservatives / Trump. Well his ratings are half of what they used to be as a result.
I saw a few youtube videos recently predicting that the networks are going to cancel these late shows and Kimmel is the first one to go at the 11:30 time.
Kimmel is that guy that you avoid who whines about everything.
FTA: It’s the same tired punchlines. The same smug sneering. The same moldy jokes about Nazis and orange spray tans. It’s not comedy; it’s therapy for bitter elites who still haven’t processed 2016, let alone 2024.
Isn’t there a steady supply of new fogey entertainers. The live action “Snow White” gal or Chapelle should be big draws.
