Will never watch CBS again.

thereby saving CBS EVEN MORE $$$ until the network dies. Good deal, Byron?

CBS makes money. He bought the airtime and gets whatever money the commercials bring in.

I have never found him to be talented and I'd bet even those who do, may hold a grudge against CBS.

an unfunny ripoff of "Alan Davies As Yet Untitled" and Paul Provenza's "The Green Room."

I have friends who are (or have written for) professional comedians. To date, I have never heard of any of the guests on Allen's show (which the DVR thankfully cuts off after the opening titles).

CBS, who only own about 10 stations in the US get their money upfront; is the affiliates who will suffer. But since one of the largest affiliates is Sinclair, I'm ok with that.

The situation is akin to when I saw Elayne Boosler, Roger & Roger, and The Unknown Comic in Las Vegas back around 1980, at The Landmark (before the Martians blew it up). Murray Langston (aka The Unknown Comic) rented the showroom, paid the other comedians, the stage crew, and the advertising. Langston got the ticket money. If nobody showed up, the only big to the casino was the salary of the cocktail waitress (drinks were not included in the ticket price).

At that show, my friends and I sat front row center, and saw Elayne (who killed), Roger & Roger (who killed), The Unknown Comic (who didn't kill), and a couple of cockroaches (whom I killed; I tell you the Martians did us a favor).
.

It's the only reason he's on the air.

Byron Williams is an idiot

level of John Oliver, Stewart, Colbert and Kimmel. Didn't even know he was still around.

Yeah, great deal.

(understand after Colbert, CBS will be locked out of my DVR)

Unfunny mediocrity. His style is 1970s humor with all the sexism, racism and misogyny that entails. His game shows are just garbage. Washed up old comedians he hires to tell unfunny jokes to canned laughter. The thing that most people don't know about him is that he is a billionaire and owns his own media company.

They’re the ones who did this to Colbert.

Of course.
The MAGA version of a comedian.

Johnny Carson and The Tonight Show by putting on against TTS its own late-night show with Joan Rivers.

How did that work out:

Rivers' ratings sank quickly.

Depressed for being seen as a failure, Rivers' husband committed suicide.

Rivers not only lost her lifetime friendship with Johnny Carson, who felt betrayed, but he hated her.

Rivers lost a majority of her Q Factor and wasn't seen as positively in her prior career, and never regained it.

...with her show, "After Midnight," I'd sometimes watch because it was halfway decent.

But after she quit, I stopped watching that timeslot. I wish no ill will on Byron Allen, but I find him very dull and his guests are third-rate comedians.

After May 21, I'm forever tuning in to ABC after local news.

They couldn't get a few Schecky Greene archives?

and wasn't impressed. No reflection on Allen because I know nothing of his politics and think he's being used as a pawn in a much larger reich-wing effort to seize control of the media. So I won't be watching either.
