Well, his show died.

Apparently, Mr. Wilmore isn't apologetic enough.

  • "Cameras don't fall off"

    Spoken like a man who has never been on either side of this struggle. The media is pushing a war that isn't there. There were more deaths in Chicago in the past few years than Soldiers killed in Iraq. More white people killed by white cops than anyone else in the U.S.  

    Why can't we all just bond over some delicious, affordable "Mexican" food?

    I give to you, the Taco Bell Cheeto Burrito. It's food. It's in a thread. It may save this from being buffaloed.

    Yeah, you're right.
    Everything is just fine - or will be . . . just as soon as we stop those white cops from killing alla those white people!

    I watched his show for the first few months but it just didn't click with me. I enjoyed the bits he did but didn't really like the panel discussions. Too many of them just seemed to end up (like so many panels discussions) with people talking over each other.

    Was surprised they killed the show BEFORE the election tho. They should have kept him around for that.

    Hope he finds some other place to "keep it 100".

  • I'm with HeavyG on this one. I really wanted to like the show but more often than not the panel segments turned into a bit of a jumbled mess and some of the recurring bits were just the same joke over and over again (especially the Nightly Nightly bit where the entertainment reporter tried to report on serious topics). 

    Its a shame because Larry is clearly a very intelligent and funny guy and I had hoped the show would find its groove but it never quite did. Comedy Central really needs to find something that will work in that 11:30 slot that pairs with the daily show.

    I miss the Jon Stewart/Colbert report days...
