Fox News Channels Gutfeld! has overtaken the mainstays of late-night network television including The Late Show With Stephen Colbert, The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon and Jimmy Kimmel Live! in average total viewers for August, the first time a cable late-night show has sustained a total-viewership win across an entire month.
Gutfeld! averaged 2.19 million viewers for August, beating CBS The Late Show With Stephen Colbert at 2.16 million, according to Nielsen Media Research. Trailing in total average viewers were NBCs The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon at 1.34 million; ABCs Jimmy Kimmel Live! (on hiatus for part of August) at 1.14 million and Comedy Centrals The Daily Show with 383,000.
Gutfeld! has topped individual days and weeks before, but August was a first for any cable show.

(32,073 posts)They have gone for two or more weeks. I definitely would rather watch repeats of of old comedy shows like Will and Grace than watch anything on fox.

Its really bad. They laugh at their own jokes. Everything is demeaning and disparaging. Thats right wing humor.

(4,646 posts)2.19 million viewers is about 0.6% of the US population. I bet half of those fall asleep watching the TV 😴

(1,934 posts)The vast majority of younger folks don't watch cable tv, but rely on internet streaming and news websites.
Having the attention of a bunch of people in a dying demographic is nothing to brag about.
