What a waste of talent. I enjoyed Gutfeld on "Red Eye;" I enjoy watching him on "The Five" and think that he is the most reasoned and intelligent member of that cast. I have read and enjoyed several of his books.
This show was a stinker. I can only hope that Fox will shred this format and start over again, or just sink it completely and find something else for Gutfeld to do before his career crashes (again.) He is not helping Joanne Nosuchinsky's career either. She is clever and witty on Red Eye, and I suspect pretty bright since she seemed to do some of the writing for that show. She was attractive as always, but not shown to good advantage in this show. ------TIME PASSES------
The show has been on for awhile, and some changes have been made. I have raised my vote to a 5, because there have been improvements. The show still is incredibly uneven; the Liberal Panel is stupid and a poor imitation of the newspaper on Red Eye, mostly because Bill Schulz isn't behind it. Gutfeld needed more people on the show, but it still is, or appears to be, too scripted. Gutfeld has the dubious distinction of ruining two shows, Red Eye by leaving, and this show by arriving. Joanne, look for something more deserving of your talent. -------TIME PASSES--------
Okay, I have kept watching; more changes have been made to the format, and I have raised my vote to 7 (I would go for 7 ½, if I could.) There are more guests, sometimes too many, and not always used to good advantage, and the last few episodes have had a live audience. I think having that reaction might be helping. The show has improved a great deal, but there still is room for improvement, as with most things. Getting better all the time, and I am hopeful, even optimistic.
