FYI.........On now.

[TLBSHOW]

bump

[OXENinFLA]

Is this just a replay of the 5 pm SHow?

[DoctorMichael]

He's sitting down this week. The standing-up delivery of last week was a little disconcerting.

[annyokie]

Who cares if it's a repeat? I haven't seen it. Thank you!

[rmt65802]

I didn't know that it was on right now. I've never seen it before. I think I'll go watch it now.

[Justice]

Yes it's a repeat. Savage needs to brush up his TV format a little. Good show though...I liked his piece on abortion.

[DoctorMichael]

Is this just a replay of the 5 pm SHow?

I couldn't tell you because I didn't know there WAS a 5 PM show.

[Illbay]

Tell us when it's OVER.

[BrooklynGOP]

Sorry, but he sucks.

[SubMareener]

Yes, it is a replay. Yes, he needs to work on it a little.

He needs to decide if he is doing TV, or if he is doing a televised radio show. If he decides he is doing TV, then he needs to do some production planning, and practice getting callers up on the line. If he is doing a televised radio show, then he needs to get rid of the awful graphics, and go to a "dittocam" style show.

[mickie]

Good comment....agreed.

LOL.....Michael better get his act together before they pull the plug on him.
His show was still the best thing on the air at 9PM......can't stand any more of Rita or the Smart case......let it rest!

[Symix]

Why are all these comments on format?

Yes it can be better and I am sure they will improve this - but how about the content?
The all but disappeared 9-11 footage of the planes hitting the towers; the infanticide drawings; the CNN disclosing troop movements and armaments; the deadly deseases that come with illigal immigration; the so called "homeless" (did someone give you a house?) problem created by closing down mental institutions; on and on.

Does anyone else address these problems? Didn't you wish someone would? So where is your appreciation and support for the one who does it?

[Brimack34]

I thought Matt Drudge was pulled because he wanted too show PBA on Fox and they would not let him. How times have changed. My wife had me turn it off on that segment. How can anyone let this happen. Why not just have the baby and give it up for adoption.

[LookingUp]

Is there a way to watch or listen on the computer... i do not have cable.. Thanks

[what's up]

I liked it! Funny...especially the Jessica Lange part.

[RobFromGa]

I think he's great. Much better than O'Really.

[Reactionary]

Oh, the problem appears to be that Savage isn't slick enough; his production values are lacking. Or perhaps that it's that he's too mean to the wonderful liberals. Or maybe it's just that he talks about his book (which he is proud of).

Content? Even conservatives would rather trash the show than deal with that. Partial birth abortion may be murder, you know, but we don't want to offend people by showing them what's really involved. Disasterous immigration policy? Even the Republican Party is in on the trashing of America on that count. The homeless? CNN? Who knows! I give up. I suppose it's better to trash the only person on television with enough guts to talk about those issues.

Savage isn't slick. He isn't nice when talking about the evil that men do. He doesn't dress things up to make them more acceptable. He doesn't apologize for doing it, either. He's honest, but he's smart enough to know that evil doesn't cease to exist if you stoping calling it by name.

[whadizit]

I thought his topics were good, but the phone lines were pretty bad and, at times, both he and caller were talking at the same time. That has to be worked out.

I did not see last wk.'s show, but I enjoyed this one. Perhaps I enjoyed it cause he could not spend all his time talking about his book and TV show cause he was on TV. LOL!!

[YoungKentuckyConservative]

Is it just me, or does anyone think that perhaps his support staff SUCKS and MSNBS is trying to derail the Savage train?

These idiots let caller interupt him. They leave video sound up loud when he's trying to talk. They constantly lose the phone feed. They don't play the right videos. Everything about the show looks choppy and I get the sense that Savage isn't comfortable becuase somone or something is underminding him. Any opinions?
