    Total garbage

    When this came to Comedy Central, Stephen Colbert actually had the audacity to promote it in person on a commercial by looking straight into the camera and saying it was news "without bias and without spin". Has this man no shame or a single bone of decency in his entire body? What an absolute disgrace if a television show. Just another vehicle to drive a wedge of division between the American people all delivered in a Trojan horse of supposed comedy. Colbert and his partisan drivel are a cancer on our society and this bit of deranged insanity is no exception. This is just a desperate grasp by a failing network to retain viewership by peddling hate and divisiveness, the lowest of the low.

    Exactly what we don't need - more biased, one-sided garbage

    It's hard for me to remember when I liked colbert comedy - but I know I used to. However; colbert, meyers and kimmel seem to have sold their souls to some far left-wing fringe machine that pays them generously to be uncreative, unobjective and unfunny goons for the left. The makers of this bad cartoon decided to - (instead of investing in good writing) - decided to further invest in propagating left-wing ideals and bobblehead left-wing narratives rather than investing in - well - their charter - being funny. It was extremely easy to toon out o of this bad show. Seems a war against comedy has be launched by the left and I don't like it.

    Boring and another non-funny left leaning show

    The show claims to be unbiased but is just like watching Colbert's show and non-funny skits. Hate that it is sandwiched between funny shows like the Office, Seinfeld, and South Park. I accidentally watch this horrible show. I have watched the show a couple of times, trying to be unbiased, but the show doesn't even hide its agenda. I find it funny that it claims not to be like the regular news but couldn't be more like the mundane news that we are used to. Hopefully, we will not have to suffer through many more seasons of this show, so I don't have to search for other stations while this show comes on.

    Very funny!

    Tooning out the News is funny, creative and witty.

    Repetitive

    It gets annoying after a while. The hosts were kind of funny for the first few episodes, but now their "jokes" are just repetitive. When they have no material, they just talk over the guest speaking or constantly interrupt them as if it's going to continue to be funny. It was cute for the first few times, but now it's just boring and those voices they make are just unbearable at this point. They just talk so fast over each other, I can barely understand what they are saying.

    I thought they were just warming up as the show just started, but after giving it a few tries, I just don't get it at this point.
