Society Stephen Colbert late night show cancelled

[MountainMedic]

Those two things are related. Pro Wrestling has long history of this problem. They pull fairly high and extremely consistent viewership numbers so networks get their rights. The when the networks shop their ad space the advertisers say "Professional Wrestling? Eww"

Fox Sports cited it when they didn't renew WWE last year. They were happy with the ratings, but they couldn't make money from advertisers.

MMA has the same problem, so do podcasters. Basically billion dollar corporations don't want to invest in something might that offend someone in any possible way.

I thought you, of all people, would understand sarcasm.

I'm pointing out that it probably isn't about ratings.

[Cornhole Champ]

[BeardOfKnowledge]

You're not wrong, but "ratings" doesn't necessarily mean "ratings" depending who you're talking to.

You can have critical ratings, or often viewership is referred to as ratings. Outside of age ratings, I don't know what else there would be.

It's not cancelled for like another year. There will be so much gay outpouring of support from the left in that year. They make it their mission to keep it going. I predict it doesn't get cancelled.

Abominable

Colbert takes twice as many staff members and a budget 50 percent larger (adjusted for inflation) of Johnny Carson to produce a show watched by one-tenth as many people. Carson generated $1 billion a year (in 2025 dollars) in profit for NBC. Colbert generates $40 million in red ink.

Colbert was unwatchable. Smug asshole with a very punchable face.

Bring back Ferguson.

Let's see what happens. One by one, Hollywood pedophiles are falling by the wayside.

This is why Johnny Carson is an all-time great legend...and also why Colbert, Kimmel, et al are a bunch of enormous faggots.

Someone should start the rumor/conspiracy that the drying up of USAID funds is why they can no longer pay for his show.

It's probably true. Shows like his are liberal propaganda.

 

[scourge]

The left are bitching about this cancellation so much it's making me wonder if they were getting paid money funneled through the show. That usually only cry this much when it affects their paycheck.

exactly

I wouldnt be at all surprised if this is the case
