Tucker Carlson (Fox News screen grab)
With the massive news this afternoon that Bill O’Reilly is officially out at Fox News, Fox has now announced that Tucker Carlson will be taking the coveted 8 pm slot.
Tucker Carlson Tonight will be moving up from 9 pm, which will now be the home of The Five, co-hosted by Kimberly Guilfoyle, Dana Perino, Bob Beckel, Greg Gutfeld, Jesse Watters, and Juan Williams.

Eric Bolling will be getting the 5 pm slot on May 1st. Next week Fox’s Special Report with Bret Baier will be on next week from 5-7 PM.
Martha MacCallum‘s 7 pm program The First 100 Days will change its name after those first 100 days to The Story with Martha MacCallum.
Sean Hannity remains in his 10 pm timeslot.

Can Beckel stay sober that late in the evening?
a ‘Red Eye’ type show with Kennedy, Jesse Watters, Kat Timpf and Gavin might also be a ticket for Fox at 9pm eastern, but they would need higher profile comedians...
So, if it's not on at five, and there aren't five people on it - why is it still "The Five"?
So that’s why they have all those geezer commercials.
That’s why I watch everything on tape delay so I can fast forward through them.
“If Shannon Bream is being groomed for something, they better hurry, she’s closer to 50 than 40.”
True, she’s 46, but she looks amazing.
O Reilly was running commercials for Elvis gospel records the other night. I think they had to replace him..
I think Tucker Carlson’s good ratings had a lot to do with the decision.
O’Reilly was good for a while but was becoming stale, repetitive and vapid.
The Five is unwatchable. It lacks intelligent conversation or interesting content. Dana Perino, Beckel, Williams and Gutfeld are idiotic and annoying. Bolling and Guilfoil are sometimes interesting but drawn into the stupid conversations.
Give Monica Crowley or Judge Jeanine the 9 pm spot.
So if Bolling has his own show at 5:00, The Five at 9:00, and his financial show on weekends, he’s going to be a busy boy.
Yes I agree I like the judge Beckel must go get Andrea T back
the out numbered women are pretty darn good IMHO
“maybe Judge Jeanine’s demographics don’t skew young enough, I think she would be great!”
She’s got a new show on FOX Network besides her FOX News show.
I meant Judge J on every night Monday through Friday. She does a terrific job on the weekends.
That new crew at NCIS puts me to sleep.
Unfortunately we still have to endure girly shep’s rants to get there.
Did you know that her brother in law is a former major league baseball player?
They were then they replaced Andrea Tantaros with light-weight Meghan McCain. Harris Faulkner is still there but I don't know the others.
WE really like the five. I sometimes mute Juan and Bob but the others are interesting and entertaining.
Great news for Eric as a new show host.
“Tucker needs to polish his usual approach; set up lines lure in gullible Libs,...”
That schtick has often left him beached. He comes out of the gate real strong then too often sputters. I don’t know if his research his lacking or he’s just not all that fast on his feet.
He will have to grow the younger demo though because he’s going to lose a lot of Bill’s older audience.
If I remember correctly, Shannon is married to the brother of former Pittsburgh Pirate and Atlanta Brave Sid Bream. He was a class act as a ballplayer and I have been told the whole family is like that. I think Shannon is gorgeous and very, very smart.
I won’t watch The Five not Juan and especially I swear he was drunk in air Beckle
I like Bret and that is it but two hours of Brett? Move Covutto to 5pm. I like his business angles
