Comedy Central dumped Larry Wilmore for this? "The High Court"...

would be a neat SNL sketch, but a half hour with Doug Benson pretending to be a judge hearing silly cases and doing a bong with his bailiff of the day while going over the "evidence" is cheap thrills and occasional giggles, but kind of insulting.

unwatchable and irritating is that Midnight show. Comedy channel missing a good slot - after Trevor...we immediately turn. Maybe it's to help Colbert?

Other than a few (Joy Reid, Craig Melvin, etc) networks are "lightening" up ..

I really miss Tamron Hall (I don't like those "let's solve a crime from two decades ago" shows)

I see panels with diversity, but not nearly as many hosts..
