Probably.
Levin made an interesting statement today...He asked if anybody could tell him three points from the last SOTU address? He said most people remember none.
Said it would mostly be the same way for this debate. Forgotten in two weeks.
The election will likely turn on just a few issues, with the economy foremost, was his prediction.

@Jolly Agree.

Gutfeld! has ratings better than Jimmy Kimmel and Jimmy Fallon, combined. Granted, Gutfeld! is a comedy show infused with conservative politics.
And as opposed to Kimmel, it's actually funny at times.

Hilarious.

I'm referring to Kimmel.
Late night tv used to be of a different nature. Some jokes, maybe a skit. Mostly light yukking it up with some star about their latest project. Carson used to be known for introducing new comedians and helped launch multiple careers.
Were there political jokes? Of course. But I don't remember a level of hate or viciousness directed at any politician. After all, they were trying to appeal to the widest audience.
Kimmel does not. Maybe that's partnof the reason he draws the audience he does.

Seems like there's too many liberal shows and only one conservative show, which might also explain the disparity.
If you're a righty who wants a bit of comedy, you've really only got the one choice.
The thought of sitting through an hour of any of them is a bit much.
I was only joking

Better than watching the Wicked Witch of the West.

Why no middle of the road shows?

I don't know, it's a bit odd. I don't really understand why modern American late night chat shows seem to feel obliged to go on about politics so much, and in such a jaw-droppingly obvious way. They really beat it to death. Even 10 years ago, it was a lot less. Conan, Leno and even James Corden and Craig Ferguson didn't do it.
Obviously, as far as comedy is concerned I simply refuse to assimilate. I think it's one of the things that defines us. I tend to watch Graham Norton (Irishman, on British TV) if I watch anybody, he doesn't really do politics. If I want to watch political comedy, there's Have I got News For You, which if I'm honest is how I stay moderately up-to-date on what's going on over the pond. I like some American comedy a lot, but not really the political stuff.

I find Bill Maher of late not at all off the mark in his acerbic rants on the absurdity of the current North American culture wars. Beyond that, I don’t know. I only see what’s posted or linked here. For most part I do not relate to any of its urgency and therefore pay only passing attention to the “in your face punchlines” and subsequent laughs and cheers given to the hosts.
-
Yes, I watch Bill Maher from time to time. Some of his monologues are very well done, and he picks on both sides.

If that makes Maher middle of the road, then good on him. It’s refreshing..

Actually, I think Norton is quite good. We don't have anything like that.
