Kimmel, Colbert, Fallon Ratings Plummet for Four Months Straight Among Key Youth Demographic
Breitbart ^ | 12/07/2021 | David NG

Posted on 12/07/2021 12:30:15 PM PST by ChicagoConservative27

In a sign of their declining popularity, late-night comedians Jimmy Kimmel, Stephen Colbert, and Jimmy Fallon have seen their ratings plummet for more than four months straight, as viewers in the coveted 18-49 year old demographic are tuning out consistently compared to last year, according to data reviewed by Breitbart News.

For last week, the three major late-night shows experienced a 19 percent drop from last year in their average weekly viewership in the 18-49 demographic. These declines tend to be between 10 percent and 20 percent every week as far back as mid July, though some weeks saw even bigger drops. The week ending October 10 saw a 28 percent drop from the same week last year.

The only guy I really hate in that group is Colbert.

Kimmell and Fallon are clowns, difficult to take serious, even with their leftist BS

Colbert really sets my teeth on edge. He’s like some passive-aggressive old lady. Truly awful.

Why stay up late to watch tv when they give us nothing worth watching?

Stopped watching in 2016. It was painful watching the opening dialogue with nothing but Trump and Sanders jokes. It became old and very unfunny quickly.

Orange man bad jokes are not the thing anymore, and they can’t put their hearts into Poopie Pants Joe jokes.

They have become to polarizing and political, they have forgotten that people were watching to be entertained not preached to. None are funny at all. Yet the networks will stick with them because they are too Woke to change.

I bet old Johnny Carson reruns have better ratings. I know I watch those even though they are dated, still funny, Carson did not take himself to seriously and always had new talent on, this current group never does, even Jay Leno never had new talent on.

Maybe those with a lower appetite for nasty hate-filled snark have begun to tire of the act and moved on. Maybe they wonder why these ciphers don’t trash Biden the way they did Trump, who is probably looking pretty good about now.

Colbert is a typical hate filled liberal.
