Given the ever so diverse spread that is late night comedy – in comedic terms, that is; not race (because most are Caucasian) – as of late, the question of who has higher ratings tends to often come into play. But since much content lives online nowadays, it’s tough to say whether or not ratings are of most importance in creating a successful television show. From Jimmy Fallon’s Tonight Show to Conan O’Brien’s TBS series, it appears that viral is key. Read More »

Larry Wilmore is back from a long vacation, folks. And while a lot has happened since he's been away, The Nightly Show host decided to focus on one thing at the top of Tuesday night's show: Kim Davis, the Kentucky clerk who refused to hand out marriage licenses to gay couples.

Soon-to-be Batman Ben Affleck recently came under fire when it was discovered that he tried covering up the fact that his ancestors owned slaves back in the day, something he found out on the PBS series Finding Your Roots. Now, however, it looks like Affleck’s cover up gained notice from Larry Wilmore and the Nightly Show over on Comedy Central. So, it looks like the newly leaked trailer for Batman v Superman isn’t the only trouble under his newly-found utility bat belt. Read More »
Sad days ahead, readers! It’s being reported that Jon Stewart is leaving his ever so beloved spot on Comedy Central’s The Daily Show. As an incredible force for not only the network but also the viewers of America – largely because many younger people get their news from people such as Stewart, John Oliver and the once upon a time Colbert Report host Stephen Colbert – Stewart made the announcement of his upcoming retirement during last night’s episode with guest David Axelrod. News of Stewart’s leaving after a whopping 17 years of employment comes just a couple of months after Colbert left his Report for David Letterman’s Late Show seat as well as Larry Wilmore’s premiere for The Nightly Show.

The current Ferguson protests - which began as a result of the "no indictment" decision against former Officer Darren Wilson surrounding the murder of unarmed teen Michael Brown - have caused quite a bit of stir in the news these days, especially after a number of St. Louis Rams players sported the "Hands Up, Don't Shoot" gesture during one of their games. And following the St. Louis police asking the NFL the apology for the gesture (in which the Rams' coach basically told them to screw off), there's been much discussion about "black-on-black" crime, something The Daily Show with Jon Stewart easily picked up on. To further the discussion, the Comedy Central hit brought in their Senior Black Correspondent, Larry Wilmore, who will replace Stephen Colbert with The Nightly Show when The Colbert Report ends.
