This is a sad day. One of my favorite shows will be canceled soon and now Tucker Carlson, one of my favorite political commentators, has left the show. One of America's greatest political debate shows will be no more.  Sad   

The worst thing about this: I found out from the Daily Show.


Word is Carlson might get a show on MSNBC so there's some good news.

I will miss impossible-to-understand yelling by loathesome, slimy people.

Yeah...I'll miss Carville and Begala too believe it or not.  Tongue

Did you ever see the episode of Crossfire that had Jon Stewart on as a guest?

No but I've heard about it. The crowd at the Daily Show kept cheering when Stewart was announcing it as he smiled. Cancelling Crossfire is not a laughing matter.  Sad

What's so bad about the Daily Show?

Well the obvious liberal bias is annoying but I don't think it's bad. Usually pretty funny. I just didn't want to hear it from them since a) it is known that Stewart really dislikes one of the hosts of Crossfire and b) I like to get serious news like that from a serious news channel.

They have already taken Carlson's bio info off the site. I wonder what they plan on doing at the opening of the show today since they usually show each commentators' face and say "On the left, James Carville and Paul Begala. On the right, Robert Novak and Tucker Carlson." It's going to be sad to see it go. I loved when Carlson and Begala would go at it. I wonder who will replace him for the short period of time that the show will remain on the air.

Have you ever caught his PBS show?

I didn't know he had one.

I'd love to watch the Buchanan - Press show, since it remind me of the Clinton-era pairing of the two hosts on Crossfire. Unfortunately MSNBC is no longer available on cable here.

I thought they cancelled it. Either that or it's on strange hours.

I'm pretty sure their show on MSNBC was canceled. It was on at a really bad time, too. I think around 2 or 3 PM.

This is a sad day because Crossfire is such a legendary program....but it was literally just the Democratic and Republican talking points bouncing off each other.
At least the audience was Democratic.

Yeah that's all Carville could do: Look at the audience for reassurance after the stupid remarks he would make.
