I like that show, better than Trevor Noah's Daily Show!

I was looking through the cable channels at my friend's earlier and there's nothing worth watching. Glad I chose to go without teevee a looong time ago. Couldn't afford it anyway.

A ot of great shows have been cancelled because a lsrhe audience failed to find them

While a bunch of crappy shows seem to go on forever

I'm truly bummed that the Nightly show won't be on anymore
I think Trevor and Larry have done an excellent job of filling very big shoes

Samantha Bee should of had the Colbert Report time slot.

I will miss the Nightly Show, though.

all those who succeeded him and also got shows of there own. Jon is the one that kept that thing going. Went off on vacation and gave one of his better employees, John Oliver a chance to audition to the world. Jon knew he was quitting and used what time he had left to help the others. He is a good man.
