FNC did a Republican leaning SNL like half hour satire show once a week back during GWBs second term when the GOP had lost all credibility and people were looking for dramatic change. It was the worst possible timing.
(Sunday nights 10pm I recall)
The time to do that was 2009 and 2010 when Dems were in charge of everything and people were looking for opposition to them. But the idea was gone by then written off as a failed idea.
10 PM Sunday?
Worse than Red Eye : )
