Late night comedians pounced on the Mueller report with predictable results. They either shredded Attorney General Bill Barr or claimed President Donald Trump was still guilty of something. No one cracked wise about the Democrats who screamed “collusion,” without evidence, for the past two years. Late night TV is awash in liberal voices, and has been this way for some time now. Is there room for at least one right-leaning show? Comedian Andrew Heaton says the Age of Trump complicates what such a show might look like. An unabashedly pro-Trump program puts comedy in a tight spot, says Heaton, host

For most of us who enjoy Lucianne, liberalism is difficult to understand. I can’t understand it either, but have decided that the defining feature is a congenital lack of a sense of humor among those called Democrat(s) or liberals, socialists or whatever they prefer. Have we ever heard a democrat say something “funny” that hasn’t been written for him?
No wonder everyone turns off the TV at 11:30PM.

Johnny Carson took late night TV to the grave with him. It hasn´t been at all the same since he left. RIP.

Republicans don’t watch late night TV propaganda. Lino was fired for making a few Obama jokes, now they are all 100% Trump haters. After 2 years it’s very stale. Trump won without the media. I suggest the media get out of NY & DC more often & see the real world.

I figured only democrats are on the late night comedy shows because they are the joke.

Liberals can stay up for late night TV because they can sleep in and wait for their EBT cards to be refilled or they go to some makework job like government administration, teaching the same old kiddie classes or taking the kids to a free day care so they can shop and eat donuts. Real Americans are up before sunrise and doing something meaningful.
Samantha Bee, SNL, Kimmel and all the others have been telling the same insulting, unfunny jokes since 2016. This week´s hatefest is all about the slight to the press for the President´s non-attendance at their boring, self-serving dinner.
If you have to watch something after 9 PM, Last Man Standing is a refreshing, irreverent comedy packed full of un-PC humor.

The cultural "product" being churned out by the Kill Trump! "progressives" of the arts - whether film, music, TV, graphics, literature - is now so devoid of even the slimmest entertainment value and content, that it will inevitably just rot away, unconsumed like unwanted compost.

I´ve made my life more tolerable by not allowing any Dems
to besmirch it. I believe not a word they write or say. Nowadays with 20 running as Dem (equivalent to antiAmerican) Pres in 2020, at least 75 percent of the time I fast forward all leftists on political shows. I´ve gone from watching for hours to watching for minutes. The Rat party is no longer relevant to those of us who love our country and its constitution.

First, one would need to find a conservative producer with the connections to make it happen. Second, production facilities, writers, directors, etc. would need to be harvested from the Hollywood lefty collective. Third, the show will need marketing and PR via, you guessed it, the current media and advertising establishment. IOW, within the current structure, it´s damn near impossible. Not saying don´t do it, just need to know what we´re up against.

I, too, abandoned late night tv when Johnny Carson retired. I did watch Jay Leno´s show for a time after that. For a lib, he was ok. But, aside from Leno, the entertainment value of late night tv is gone and has been gone. Late night tv is a total waste of time now.
As for tv in general, we use it to watch professional sports, HGTV, and the science channels. The re-runs of the 50s and 60s comedy shows are a favorite, too.
At our house, we don´t allow ourselves to be bludgeoned by the msm. It has been many years since we last watched a network news program starting with the local deep state news media in Denver. 9News, this means you.
Nevertheless, it is very difficult to get through a single day anymore without getting exposed somehow to the evil behavior of the left.

Liberals are people who are angry, usually because of their own failings, but blame other people for their unhappiness. They can´t admit to themselves that they are wrong.

We turned off national news back in the early 90’s when Gingrich’s Contract with America won the House for the Repubs for the first time in forty years. We were watching either BrokeJaw or Jennings and were appalled at his opening comment, “The American voter had a hissy fit,” or something along those lines. We still watched the LA local news for a bit longer. My job required working with City Council members and staff, and TK was LAPD. We would see reporting of issues or incidents in which we were involved that were misrepresented or important information missing. After the Rodney King riots, propelled by an activist media, we made our plans to escape from LA and moved to the homestead in 1999. We haven’t watched the networks for either “entertainment” or “news” since then. We gave up on Fox after they fired Beck for exposing George Soros and his Open Society network.
The old media is dying by their own hands. The days of Johnny Carson, Carol Burnett and Laugh-In are gone. Stalinists have no humor, because they have no life outside of this physical existence. They live their lives without God and lust for power. When this life is all that there is, then it becomes a very serious matter. The time to seize and use power is limited. But, to those who know God and His Ways; compared to eternity our earthly life is just a bobble on our wrist. Humor, especially gallows humor, is the response of a believer in powers greater than themselves. When you’re in charge of the world, who has time to laugh?

Liberals are always cranky and snarky because their utopia hasn´t emerged on the horizon. They just know that perfection is around the corner . . . . They fundamentally lack knowledge of human nature and, hence, they are not funny. They are only mean-spirited. Include me out. I haven´t watched late night TV in decades.

Cultural Marxists are very effective at dismantling America. They are completely dedicated to the struggle. We should fight them everywhere. Greg Gutfeld and Jesse Waters could give them battle. There is a lot of laughable material on the extreme left.

I agree with Toto if he means Johnny Carson. If he means Carson Daily, not so much. Jay Leno left and took Funny with him out the door.

The only "late night" comedy show that I will watch these days is the Greg Gutfeld Show, which airs at 10pm on Saturdays on Fox News. To be honest, I usually catch the re-air at 5pm on Sunday.
As for the others, I haven´t watched any of the leftist drivel in years. It´s just not funny.
