Why, yes it is!
From Merriam-Webster:
caca
noun
ca·ca ˈkä-ˌkä

Quote:Meanwhile, Greg Gutfeld, who is actually funny, has higher ratings on Fox. "Gutfeld!" has "remained cable’s late night ratings juggernaut in 2024, averaging 2.76 million viewers." He's actually performing the job he's hired to do - be funny.
I hate the late night TV shows hosted by Colbert, Fallon and Kimmel. It's great to see them tanking. That said, this claim always comes across as highly disingenuous. I agree that Gutfeld's show is better overall, but consider that Gutfeld starts at 10 pm EST while the other 3 shows claim to start at 11:35 pm EST. All 4 shows run for an hour. Most people work during the day. I'd say for the majority of people working during the day, it's not unreasonable to to go to bed at 11 pm. The 3 late night shows on the networks with the later start...who's watching these shows? Is the 3-11 shift that large? Or are they trying to tap into those guys working midnights with the hope they can sneak watch Colbert, Kimmel and Fallon while on the job? I get that people can record these shows - but is that the same as watching them live for revenue dollars? When I record shows off the networks I can easily fast foward thru commercials so I HIGHLY doubt this is a good thing for the networks to get eyeballs.
Even though they are evening shows, I don’t think Gutfield and the other three are the same. The people that watch Gutfeld are political junkies. People want to watch the shows on the big three to see celebrities come in and pimp their newest TV show, movie, book, or wax on about the antics on set for their greatest hits. Kimmel and Colbert, in particular, moved way beyond that, and put on products that should have been aired on MSNBC or CNN. Regular people do not want to watch that, they want to watch their favorite entertainer just be a person.
Agree that the audiences for Gutfeld compared to the others are different. Additional info on why they are different animals.

This is all correct, but it doesn't matter.
Kimmel is gone. Colbert is soon gone. Myers and Fallon have worse ratings than Colbert. They will all be gone soon.
They cost WAY too much to produce. Meanwhile, Gutfeld is in a better time slot, has small production costs, and is thriving.

Agreed. I don’t know if a Gutfield type shoe is the answer though. Several pages back I mentioned the UK based The Graham Norton Show on the BBC. Similar to Gutfield, it is mostly comedy with him and his guests all sitting around on the couch/chairs but with no politics. Norton gets serious A-listers, I’m actual quite shocked how he does it. The show is a lot fun, they even play a game at the end. I think the three network shows have just gotten too political and stopped being fun many years ago.

I agree with the bold. It's the same reason so many have stopped watching award shows.

Ha, it's not if you have no clue about that. I never took Spanish. I just like the sound of the word better.
In fact, a lot of Spanish words sound better than English, which is a clunky and difficult language to learn.

True.

I greatly doubt that, LOL. His contract runs through May of next year. I suspect Disney has decided they will simply have to eat it.

What Johnny Carson said in that clip is true. His modern-day imitators would do well to keep that in mind.
Little known fact: off camera, Johnny Carson was leftwing/liberal on every issue.

Is it really true that Tom is into cuckoldry? I've seen that mentioned before but not sure if it originated from Tom or from somewhere else?

Dude, you do know that people act completely different away from social media, right?
But yes, when the electorate is split evenly, you're going to have co-workers, family and friends from both sides of the political spectrum.

Really dude? Please tell me you're being sarcastic. But remember, statements like that coming from the degenerate minions here are likely more projection than anything.
