76. I want to add something
Mon Nov 6, 2023, 07:37 PM
Nov 2023

to your first sentence. We here are both very, very sick of seeing his face and hearing his voice on TV. We basically turn it off if that happens. I'm not thrilled that since he's been back, Colbert has featured Donny on nearly every monolog--not *talking* about what he said, not reading a tweet in his imitative voice, but literally shoving video of him in our faces. It doesn't matter if it is to make fun of him. We all know that Donny craves air time, with bad air time being the same as good, as long as his face is in our living rooms. And Colbert is obliging. We have cut back on our Colbert watching as a result. Only if the guest is someone we really want to see. Maybe it's just us.
