Colbert's ratings preeminence lasted 24 hours: Fallon beat him the second night — and 55 of the next 58 nights. During recent weeks, the gap has grown in the 18-to-49 demographic coveted by late-night advertisers.
CBS had no realistic hope of knocking Fallon from his perch atop late night — at least not right away. But Colbert's solid early numbers have slid (though he's bringing in a younger audience than his predecessor, David Letterman); the other Jimmy, Kimmel on ABC, has moved ahead of him as well. During Thanksgiving week — admittedly a bit unusual — Colbert fell behind Seth Meyers' NBC show, which plays an hour later.

mmmm
leftcuck butthurt is the best thing ever
it's another daily show wanna be so funnay liberal trash. people are sick of hearing the same opinion over and over
we kicked this topic around a little a few days ago. People like to blame his political views but the bigger problem is his guest list tends to suck ass
tonight show is getting bigger stars, doing fun stupid crap that is over in a few min. Perfect for today modern short attention span.
>Tonight Show = female lead of Starwars playing flip cup
>Colbert = talking to Jane Fonda
>>63708615
Yeah, but his politics partially drives his guest selection. That's the problem.
His show is all over the fucking place tonally. He wants to be classy but fun, hip and young but political, alternative but constantly promoting brand shit.
He's a JUST waiting to happen
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-yzGA_glnkM
He's Anita tier
>>63708937
That's just...
I thought we Yuropoors were cucked. I'm so SO sorry.
>>63708365
Watching Reddit try to rationlize this shit is the greatest thing ever. They can't wrap their brains around the fact that this guy just isn't that liked outside their little echo chamber.
>>63708615
I like his guests especially the entrepreneurs, but he's too hyperactive and speaks over all the guests.
Conan should take his place
He isn't pushing viral internet content as much as Kimmel or Fallon. That's the future.
>>63708937
>tumblr: the senator
>>63708615
>hurrrrr it's not his politics guize really
Found the Redditor.
>problem is guests
I have never fucking ever watched a late show for the guest.
I have watched it for the funny monologues.
Colbert just isn't funny, not like he once was on the Report.
>>63708365
Liberals don't watch TV
>Get famous because you have a character
>drop the character in your second gig after years of being it
>expect it to work out
How many great characters ruined an actor?
>>63708365
That's what he gets for making a living as a faux conservative for years & being a liberal douche. Basically alienating over half the country's population.
The anti-lib fire rises. And this fag is gonna burn.
Are these traditional ratings or do they actually count streaming content?
The trouble is old people using traditional tv are watching the two idiots on regular tv while Colbert's younger more tech savy audience would be more inclined to watch it through newer means.
The ratings system has always struck me as being years and years behind the times.
>>63709085
>those views and subscriptions
There are literally autistic man children on YouTube playing games with more subscriptions and viewers.
>>63709085
Here's a tip:
Maybe stop looking like a complete faggot in every piece of promotional advertising. Nothing but slanted eyebrows, tons of makeup and gay postures.
>>63709044
How the fuck is Conan so low?
Americucks have no taste.
>>63709085
Shit. Most of my friends have dropped cable and just stream everything.
>>63709044
>Noah's 38% drop isn't bad
That's pretty bad. It could be worse, but it's still pretty bad.
>>63708365
Good.
>>63709333
Well he's on fucking TBS for starters.
People go years without flicking their station to TBS.
He's an idiot for not taking the FOX deal for a show when he had the chance.
>>63709333
Nothing to do with taste
It's on TBS
>>63709340
Best thing is, he's a nig. Even nigs have a bias against nigs on average. He'll never be as good as Jewart. NEVER.
>>63708365
>Colbert fell behind Seth Meyers' NBC show
fucking embarrassing
>>63709044
Poor Conan. He should literally be just behind Fallon.
Basically everyone after Fallon (before Conan) are kuked lib faggots (as is their viewers).
>>63709169
I honestly can't tell the difference between his character and himself when he is talking about politics on his show
>>63709333
Conan is awful, you'd have to be incredibly biased to say he's "tasteful" to like over the others
>>63709468
On my cable TBS is the first channel after the spanish ones so its usually where you start when flipping through
>>63709044
>Larry Wilmore got his own show
That was a stupid move, I always skipped his segments on the Daily show
>>63709320
>There are literally autistic man children on YouTube playing games with more subscriptions and viewers.
To be fair, that could be said about literally anything on Youtube.
>>63708365
CBS shouldve offered it to Craig and all would be well
>>63709468
>He's an idiot for not taking the FOX deal for a show when he had the chance.
Back then he thought he would get the Tonight Show. Well, he just didn't keep it
>>63708652
>Yeah, but his politics partially drives his guest selection
Correct. Every Democrat and liberal gets softball questions, plenty of time to talk and make a point promising rainbows and puppy's, and rarely get's challenged.
If Colbert does ask a pointed question, he lets them pass and stick to talking points. Not so with conservatives. He will point out they didn't answer his question.
>>63708615
Moreover: people know what to expect from Kiddyfidler Kimmel and psycho murderer Fallon. They gave the show to Colbert to discredit him. He had one of the most unique shows in television and the progressive twist to it (i.e. mocking the rightwing pundits) was really cutting into the chase. If he hadn't had the "it's patriotic AND cheap to be liberal, but seriously I 'm just a tv host" approach, just as Stewart, the show would be more fitting in DemocracyNow!
But now they are trying to ruin the legacy of the show, by shedding big projecting lights to the latter part of the phrase in quotation marks; it's like they are trying to say to the public: what were you expecting? He's just a tv host!
Not that the people need a tv messiah to be informed or saved
>>63708768
>hip and young but political
that's the huge problem of today...that those two are considered mutually exclusive when it was completely the other way around in the 60s and early 70s.
>>63709044
>all those white men
>>63708365
>Jimmy Fallon
Why does murrikans like that guy so much? It's literally goofy noises: the late show.
>>63709468
Didn't Fox offer a deal after his Tonight Show conflict, but apparently the local affiliates bitched and moaned to Fox corp so they backed down and the Conan offer had to be withdrawn?
>>63713296
>Kiddyfidler Kimmel and psycho murderer Fallon
what?
>>63715490
you know what it is when you look at their faces...don't pretend
I like Colbert and would watch it if it wasn't on so damn late. Ever since I've moved to the Eastern Time Zone I don't even bother with late shows anymore.
Late shows are a dead genre. It needs to die.
Fallon is literally Reddit and he needs to die.
Even fucking Family Guy has called him out as a tryhard.
>>63716506
Fallon is a genuinely pleasant person and his charisma radiates to the audience. Everyone is happy near him so he will remain King.
>>63709333
Conan is unfunny and trash
Another fake /pol/ article.
Colbert's ratings are slipping, but these pretend articles written as the real thing are just pathetic
>>63716696
>muh poll boogie man
http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/news/bill-carter-how-jimmy-fallon-848851
>>63716696
>muh /pol/
Cry more cucky.
>>63708365
Dumbfuck alienated half the viewership by pandering to liberal lunacy and being a one-trick-poney.
You reap what you sow, hope he chokes.
>>63709624
Fallon started his show being a liberal faggot but has toned it down some.
People seriously watch late night talk shows? I watched one once and it just seemed like:
>hilarious youtube clips that were funny five years ago
>shallow observations on what happened today, this week, this year, or twenty years ago
>guest
>guest talks about their new whatever basically an advertisement
>goodbye everybody
Repeat.
>>63716667
you know Lardine, if you don't get a house of your own isntead of living with your sister, that diet won't work and you 'll always be complaining about men.
>>63708365
Am I the only one that despises phoney-Fallon with every fiber of my being?
>>63719989
I fucking hate him and his fake laughing.
>>63708365
Stopped watching after he bowed down and worshiped some "pyooooooooooooodeePIE" homosexual person from Europe
>>63713645
Because he plays funny games with celebrities
If people want to hear somebody ask the same boring questions about the same boring topics like
>so whats this new movie about?
>How did you prepare for it?
>What inspired you?
They can read it on the fucking internet. Nobody wants to watch a 60 minutes style interview during Late Night TV. Fallon has the absolute perfect Tonight Show formula.
>>63708365
>go nonpolitical except for "boy can you believe those nuts in congress" tier humor
>have show be more of a graham Norton style sit-and-chat style show
Problem solved. CBS, hire me.
>>63708615
Did Jane Fonda talk about her role in Youth?
>>63709333
>on TBS
>Most of his skits are on YT
>Everything else can be found online
>Conan also hasn't been funny in over a decade
>>63720942
Except Fallon does ask those stupid questions, only worse, while laughing and saying "Oh my god! You're the best! I love this guy!"
>>63709085
>Self proclaimed Catholic as well as CCD teacher
>Stephen Colbert celebrates Hanukah
>>63708365
Fallon appeals to the lowest common denominator
Colbert fucking had Doris Kearns Goodwin on
>>63708365
>18-to-49 demographic coveted by late-night advertisers
that's literally everyone
>>63713645
Confirmed for never watching Carson.
>>63713000
>has Joe Biden on
>lets him tell a sob story and practically begs him to run for President
>has Ted Cruz on
>starts an argument with him about the Constitution and tries to shame him about muh equality for fags
Yeah, I can't imagine why his ratings are tanking....
>>63709739
I don't even hate his politics or ethnocentric shit
It's the fact that he's an old man trying to pander to youth and he's fucking terrible about it
>>63708615
>hmmm Noam Chompsky is a good person to put on my show for entertainment
ya nah he picks his fagoty guests
>>63709303
Nielsen here:
We count television viewing, streaming on PCs, smartphones, and tablets.
>>63708615
>Jane Fonda
Fuck that communist supporting bitch
>>63709333
Conan isn't funny
>>63721804
because he doesn't appeal to retarded chimpanzees?
>>63722180
Is this supposed to mean something?
>>63708365
>actor popular with people 35 and younger
>put him on a format only people 40 and older watch consistently
>expect positive results
What's dying is late night talk shows, along with broadcast TV in general.
@63722180
bigoted much??
reported u dude
>>63716696
>le /pol/ is the reason colbert sucks
>>63722192
yes, I'm saying that people who think Ted Cruz is likable are retarded chimpanzees.
>>63722264
Yes, I understand you feel that way, but do you have a point or not?
>>63721518
and then he plays a game, which was my point.
>>63722180
>retarded chimpanzees
But anon, black people already vote for democrats
>>63722294
Yes, that the reason Stephen Colbert isn't as popular as other hosts is because he doesn't appeal to retarded chimpanzees.
>>63722264
I don't agree with his Bible thumping ways, but I'd take him over a democrat any day
>>63722354
But he panders to democrats who are all dumb animals
Fucking kek he's actually doing even worse than Dave
>>63722354
You do realize that the feral gibsmedats vote for Democrats, right?
>>63722371
And you like to eat bananas while riding the shorter school bus too, right?
>>63722401
All animals are dumb, but retarded chimpanzees are extra dumb.
>>63722153
He's way funnier than all the other current talk show hosts
>>63714855
I think he took the TBS deal because it was better for his staff. He basically moved his entire staff and their families from NY to LA for 9 months of the tonight show. Fox was giving him less budget and probably wanted him back in NY.
>>63722227
Except Jimmy Fallon has ratings better than what the Tonight Show has ever had and he appeals to a younger audience. And his online views crush Colbert's by an even greater magnitude. People just like to pull your excuse when something they like is flopping
Why do we care who is #1? As long as hosts don't reach cancellation-numbers I don't see why we should give a shit.
>>63722518
Not Eric Andre
>>63721527
>Self proclaimed Catholic
As in the religion?
Conan is the only one that matters.
>>63722690
>what is advertising revenue
