Samantha Bee is not hosting a talk show any more.

If she ever was. Full Frontal was mostly her angry ranting raving nonsense week after week and while she occassionally made a point and once in a blue moon provided proof, she was mostly just the liberal equivalent of Rush Limbaugh, which is to say shes smarter and better spoken but never got people upset enough to actually do anything.

Also she could be genuinely funny.

But like most talk show people she had a full team of writers to help.

(Fun fact: She's the one who called Ivanka a You-Know-What but then later apologized)

She basically said what all the memes were already saying except days later. Like other talk show hosts but at least they mostly go daily so they aren't so far behind.

Never saw the show, never heard of her.
Did she retire to spend more time with her family?

Since I had no idea she ever was hosting a talk-show or who she even is for that matter, I'm somehow not all that worked up over it.

Well, she has like 700 clips on Youtube.

Not a great way to start a thread.

No. No she wasn't, and to submit otherwise tells me you really aren't familiar with either of the two people you are talking about.

Show had some talent, was funny, but the decision not to do guest appearances for the most part may have been a bad one.

I didn't watch her much, I generally enjoyed the "field report" segments from other comedians more than the main segments.

Yup, I already scream into the void enough I don't need to watch her do it too.

Might be one of the reasons she doesnt have a show any more. With all the various methods the little people have to express themselves, she doesnt stand out.

I watched her occasionally and her interviews were definitely the best part of the show.

Wasn't even aware she was still on--I assume she disappeared when Trump left office. I don't think I ever watched a single segment of her show--only clips linked on Twitter. I guess if I want to watch someone crack week old jokes, I prefer John Oliver on Last Week Tonight.
