Late-Night King Greg Gutfeld Signs Fresh Fox Deal, As His Ratings Blow Out Competition: Fox News is expected to announce that it recently closed a deal with Gutfeld to extend his contract, a move that spotlights the host’s importance to the network’s operations even if he isn’t in the mold of a Sean Hannity or Laura Ingraham.
Under the pact, Gutfeld will continue his co-hosting duties at the roundtable show “The Five” as well as his 10 p.m. program, “Gutfeld!,” a looser take on the issues of the day that marks a bid by Fox News to woo the younger TV viewers who might watch late-night programs such as

I like Greg but to be honest his jokes aren't that funny. More power to him though.

His commentary is always spot on, and funny. Look for the lawfare any day now, the left is going to come after him like all the others before him.

Congrats to Gutfelt, but he's not that funny. Watching his show every night would be tiresome. One or two nights a week, OK. Evening television is so bad that my choices are Gutfelt or not watching anything at all.

Lost interest when Carson retired.
I haven't missed much...

He must have one hell of an agent.
Given the no-talent product he/she had to work with.

Fox News is dead to me. Just another corrupt member of the propaganda media. They just try to hide, not so hard, who they really are which is another member of the deep state.

The only talk show worth watching on any cable news channel is Gutfeld!

#4 - Tried it every night for a couple of weeks, and yes - his schtick can be tiresome. What's turned me off, though, are the increasing number of studio audiences who - as a group - respond to some really funny punchlines in his monologs with, "Whooooa" (as in "you shouldn't say that"). Lighten up and laugh, people. With the right mix of guests, though, it can be some of the funniest entertainment going.

Hope Gutfeld shares a few of thosr bucks with Tyrus ... he makes the show. Could skip about half the bleeps, they could be as funny with less profanity.

Gutfeld mocks the left like no one else, it's necessary and effective. Breitbart would approve.
Yeah, Greg can be tedious but worth the wait for the memorable and hilarious.
The show would be so much better without the clod Tyrus who would be nothing without being propped up by writers. He absolutely ruins any flow to the show with his pompous pronouncements and cutting off other guests.

We seldom watch Fox, maybe a bit of Hannity, Waters and Ingram, the rest is less than average! Gutfeld is a clown without the funny nose, fuzzy Hair and Clown Car...we NEVER watch him or the 5. We've pretty much switched to News Max.

Gutfeld is a stop down every night. It's a great comedy show and he brings out the best in his rotating guests as well as Kat and Tyrus.

Fox News comes on our cable automatically, so his shows are on before we switch to stuff we tape from the night before on Newsmax. Lately, however, Greg's been doing some pretty decent " Pro-MAGA-Biden's a-Lying-Fool-Destroying-America" opening commentaries we've been catching for a few minutes fixing morning brew and bagels.
I agree. Good for him! Mark, Jesse, and Maria are still hanging tight, as well. Good for them! MAGA-Vet.

Sorry, Ldotter friends. I am old and love Greg. He is witty and courageous and funny' He writes his own script and has interesting guests.Tyrus is a gem. He sometimes is the voice of reason with a sense of humor. Am glad he has been renewed.

"even if he isn’t in the mold of a Sean Hannity or Laura Ingraham" - Is this a backhanded slam at Greg?

That guy who plays Biden on the show is hilarious and spot on. I watch just hoping he will be on.

Gutfeld's opening monologue is usually great. Some of the discussion topics are interesting and entertaining. But the rotating guests are a mixed bag. Some are quite insightful while others have a sense of humor that falls flat (for me).

Forty years ago it was Johnny Carson. Now it's Gutfeld. I've got no problem with that.
