Going to miss this show


Larry would cover topics that I care about and rarely got to see on other shows. He kept it going for the residents of Flint and actually had Gary Johnson come on for an extended interview.

I'm especially going to miss Jordan, Franchesca, Grace, Mike and Rory. Jordan and Franchesca were very insightful commentators while Rory and Mike made some excellent skits together and of course Grace's Nightly!, Nightly! skits were classic.

If it comes back on another channel, I'll be there. The show gave me a lot more laughs than either Trevor or Colbert's new show over the last year.

Yes, and don't forget he called out Bill Cosby on a regular basis.

I actually got tired pretty quickly of Grace's Nightly! routine, but I loved Franchesca's social media analysis, Mike and Rory both have great comic timing and their "debates" always cracked me up," and Jordan was smart as a panel member. I have to add that I also enjoyed Holly. She has the vice-principal-who-just-caught-you-smoking demeanor down so well.

I'm sorry, but Colbert just kills it for me, even on his new show. He is a hard act for Larry, or anyone, to follow. Trevor Noah is interesting, a seemingly kinder, gentler fake new show host, but he gets some pretty good digs in. I like his outsider perspective, and I wish him luck.

Nevertheless, I agree that if Larry gets a show on another channel, I will watch it. He is a good soul.

> but I loved Franchesca's social media analysis,

Not me. There are so many people on social media that you can always find a bunch of people saying something utterly stupid (oldtimers know this as the "september effect"). It is a cheap-shot since no one with even half a brain pays attention to dumbasses running their mouths on twitter. If she went after people who had a lot of followers and still said stupid siht then that would have been worthwhile.

Thanks. I am not on Twitter, so I appreciate getting schooled about it. I am just not sure that "no one with half a brain pays attention to dumbasses running their mouths off" is a factual statement.
