Late night humor has gone way beyond the pale, IMO. https://www.americanthinker.com/blog/2019/03/when_comedy_gets_too_political.html They are so biased that it almost gotten to the point where they have lost a good portion of their audience. I guarantee you if you ask conservatives if they still watch, most will tell you "NO".

Saturday Night Live is pathetic. I quit watching the Tonight Show, Jimmy Kimmel Live, The Late Show and all the others.
There is nothing entertaining about them anymore.
Now I watch old reruns like Twilight Zone, WKRP in Cincinnati, ect.
I can't be the only one.

I agree with all of that. SNL is a joke and not in a funny way. Crude, ugly, and not the least bit funny. Alec Baldwin is pathetic and he gets an emmy for that? He hates Trump and he's disgusting. Glad to see we're on the same page.

These lefty comedians don't suffer the embarrassment of their product.
They hold a forum of insults concentrated on one man and never change the subject. Even they should be bored. Their attempts to persuade America that Trump is (fill in the evils) is ignored by Trump supporters and welcomed as comfort drugs to Trump haters.

Trump's daily tweets write the scripts for all the late-night comedians. Exactly why is it you think they shouldn't do the jobs they are paid so well to do?

You are watching old reruns of the twilight zone because you can't stand your fearless leader being made fun of because of what he says? That's just SAD...

How can anybody be so stupid as to deny the fact that everything is looking extremely rosy? Unemployment, record DOW, jobs, consumer confidence, economic BOOM. What is wrong with you? Go see a doctor (shrink).

Actually the Twilight Zone is the closest reality I can compare to the party of Democrats.

Twilight Zone, Outer Limits and One Step Beyond were some of my favorites, but WKRP and Mork and Mindy were fun for a change. Since we have no TV reception out here, we just watch old movies onDVD but I much prefer reading a book anyhow.

Sort of something for everyone (that thinks like I do) but not those who have a mind of their own. Couldn't care less about them. In the old days (when comedians actually cared about the people they were entertaining) they had something for everyone all the time, they were just so much better than these pretenders we have today.

I'll tell ya why, because there is malice in what passes for comedy on late night. All the early great comedians were funny and intelligent, they knew good comedy has to have two things, truth, and heart. Truth can always be funny, but it's no "guarantee" it will be funny, with heart, truth will be funny every time, to everyone, and that's the truth.

The definition of comedy is. That what makes people laugh.
Professional Trump bashing makes the lefty losers feel good, and bores the Trump supporters.
No laughing matter.
