The Fox News show bypassed Colbert in the coveted 25-to-54 age demographic as well with an average of 434,000. Colbert\u2019s \u201cLate S1how\u201d grabbed an average of 1.896 million viewers and 423,000 in the key demographic.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>The third show to top the late-night charts was Jimmy Fallon\u2019s \u201cTonight Show,\u201d which airs on NBC and had 1.216 million viewers and 354,000 in the key demographic. Since \u201cGutfeld!\u201d launched in April of this year, the show has routinely averaged a higher viewership than Fallon\u2019s.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>Colbert still beat Gutfeld\u2019s show among the 18-to-49 age demographic. Colbert averaged 322,000 viewers to Gutfeld\u2019s 281,000 and Fallon\u2019s 255,000.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>\u201cGutfeld!\u201d found itself in the peculiar position of competing against late-night comedy shows as well as the 11 p.m. hour shows on CNN and MSNBC. On Tuesday, MSNBC\u2019s \u201cThe 11th Hour with Brain Williams\u201d fell behind the Tonight Show with an average of 1.120 million viewers and 167,000 viewers in the 25-to-54 key age demographic.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>CNN\u2019s \u201cDon Lemon Tonight\u201d fell behind all of the previously listed programs as well as NBC\u2019s \u201cLate Night with Seth Meyers\u201d and ABC News\u2019 \u201cNightline.\u201d CNN garnered 570,000 average viewers with 186,000 in the key demographic.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>Gutfeld has been anything but shy about wanting to overtake the late-night shows in viewership and rating. Upon the announcement of his show\u2019s expansion, Gutfeld said that the current shows are not accepting of conservative values and often repeat the same tired jokes.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>\u201cIf you cannot tell the other late night shows apart, join the club. They\u2019re as bland as string cheese and not nearly as appetizing. It\u2019s the same jokes, the same assumptions, probably the same writers, all reading the same columns from the same hacks in the New York Times. So we aren\u2019t going to be like them,\u201d Gutfeld <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/media\/fox-news-new-late-night-program-gutfeld-april-5\"><span>said<\/span><\/a><span>. \u201cIf you want something different that isn\u2019t afraid to take a risk and call out hypocrisy on all sides, check out \u2018Gutfeld!\u2019 And if you don\u2019t, no hard feelings. Although I will hate you forever.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>Gutfeld\u2019s theory appears to have taken form, even in the most recent news cycle. Following an initial period of silence, Hollywood stars such as Colbert began speaking out on the events in Afghanistan by comparing members of the Republican party to the Taliban.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>Colbert initially expressed agreement with President Joe Biden\u2019s widely criticized speech in which he argued that the overthrow of the Afghan government by terrorists was the right decision. He then insinuated that soldiers should be fighting \u201cradicals\u201d on Capitol Hill, instead of terrorists abroad.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>\u201cWe have had troops there for 20 years,\u201d Colbert said. \u201cThey fought, they sacrificed, their families sacrificed so that we wouldn\u2019t have a terrorist attack in America planned in a foreign country \u2026 Why should our soldiers be fighting radicals in a civil war in Afghanistan? We\u2019ve got our own on Capitol Hill.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Related: <\/b><a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailywire.com\/news\/stephen-colbert-michael-moore-and-other-celebs-compare-trump-voters-republicans-to-taliban\"><b>Stephen Colbert, Michael Moore, And Other Celebs Compare Trump Voters, Republicans To Taliban<\/b><\/a><\/p>\n<p><i><span>The Daily Wire is one of America\u2019s fastest-growing conservative media companies and counter-cultural outlets for news, opinion, and entertainment.
