    There is no way this wasn't done to appease the orange diaper stain.

    Wildly popular successful highly rated show cancelled three days after host criticizes network for bowing to Trump.

    When they cancelled Smothers Brothers to appease Nixon we started calling them Censored Bull Shit.

    Cobert will go straight to podcasting...Maron is retiring WTF so Cobert can pick up where he left off. No coincidence that CBS opted to settle a lawsuit with Trump earlier for a huge payoff of I think 600 million or so...correct me if memory fails me on the number...Cobert going to the halls of Congress after Jan 6th put him on the GOP hitlist.

    And Congress has just voted to end funding public media.

    What a coincidence...

    Maybe all of these guys should just go to NPR and raise funds for them.

    I'll gladly pay 30 bucks a month for legitimate well founded news along with entertainment shows like these guys provide.

    We've had a subscription to PBS forever. Helluva bargain, so I told my wife (who does the budget) yesterday that whatever increase they might tell us they need to keep going, put a smile on her face and pay it.......

    And on the flip side, we can do quite nicely without Paramount’s streaming service. They’ve been cancelled.

    CBS isn’t going to last much longer if this is the angle they’re going to take

    I think you can tell who voted for who, based on how they reacted to this.

    For example, Dwight Jaynes is like "good, he wasn't funny anyways!"

    Coming from the most dry, boring person ever. That’s gold.

    Nothing says I have a stick up my ass and no personality quite like someone who rocks a toupe for 30 years after he went bald

    There are comedians I don't find funny. I don't watch them. I don't tell others they can't.

    So, did I read right that Paramount just paid the South Park guys 1.5 billion over 5 years? For a total of 50 episodes?

    Yet, they canceled the late show due to "economic reasons"?

    The math isn't mathing.
