Hilarious how ignorant you are of how the free market works.
He is, just not wildly so.
If it's worth it ABC ; it's apparently not to over 25% of their affiliate stations.
Let's see Jimmy Crybaby match this:
AI Overview
In Q2 2025, Greg Gutfeld's show, Gutfeld!, averaged 3.289 million total viewers and 398,000 in the advertiser-coveted 25-54 demo, making it the top-rated show in late-night television. This performance showed significant growth compared to the previous year, leading its broadcast rivals in both total viewers and key demographic categories.
I don’t understand that sentence.
Have one of the grownups explain it to you.
What Crying Kimmel will never do:

Did you watch him last night?
Garfield is not a late night comedy show. They don’t fight for the same market. If you are the only one at that time of night eating the Trumpers what they want, and there are three shows competing for audience in Kimmel’s market, the market with only one show will generally do better. No competition.

AI Overview
Yes,
Gutfeld! is a comedy show, specifically a news and political satire talk show. It uses comedy and political commentary to provide a conservative take on the daily headlines. The show features opening monologues, skits, and panel discussions with comedians and political commentators.
Yes, it is targeting conservatives, and it’s the only game in town. The late night comedy shows are targeting the same audience, and have competition with each other.
I suspect the late night shows have a combined rating much higher than the guttfield show.
Goalpost Moving.
No, my point has always been they do not fight for the same market. I simply added additional information that proves my point. The two shows do not have the same format, and they’re not on the same time slot, they are not competing with each other for the same market.
A lot more, especially older people are in bed before 11:30.
Horseshit ; he is so much funnier than Kimmel, there is no comparison.
They are ON AT THE SAME TIME = COMPETING FOR SAME AUDIENCE= AMERICANS WATCHING THEIR TVs...except tht there is no real "competition", as the numbers clearly show.
Gutfeld:
and 398,000 in the advertiser-coveted 25-54 demo, making it the top-rated show in late-night television.
Makeup some more silly shit.
What time is Gatfield on? Masterpiece theater is on at the same time, do you think they are competing for the same audience?
Dumb da dumb dumb!
They are ALL competing for ratings, to attract advertisers = how their show(s) make money. They ALL want as many people to watch as they can get.
As I said: hilarious how ignorant you are of how the free market works, esp. in the TV market.
