    One of the funniest parody shows on T.V. It's what SNL used to be! I know the lefties won't like it because it makes fun of them! I guess the lefties only like shows that make fun of the right. I love it when Rush plays the president. Wouldn't that be great? Ann Coulter as VP? Now, that had to drive the libs nuts. With some of the comments I've read, it did! I bet if they made fun of republicans or the religious right or republicans, they'd love it! Rush and Coulter played their parts with deadpan humor. I've seen the first two episodes of the new season. They were great! And, oh no, Rush played the president again! Anyway, I'm hoping the fantastic writing will keep up and they won't go soft like SNL have. Now, there's a show that's gone downhill! Way to go Fox News for having such an exciting and very funny show!

    This show is awesome! And made by the producers of "24" too. Btw, it's sort of like "South Park" in a way, without the profanity and grotesque junk. You know, politically incorrect and sarcastic of pansy "mainstream" liberals who think everyone thinks like them. Love it! I have some ideas for the show. Just give me props if you use 'em, guys!TOP 10 QUESTIONS LIBERALS DON'T WANT TO ANSWER(1) If humans came from apes, why do apes still exist? (2) Do most liberals drive gas-powered cars? (3) Does "global warming" occur in cold weather? (4) The 9/11 terrorist hijackers adhered to what religion? (5) How many Democrats are in media and entertainment? (6) Is it true some liberal actors promised to leave the United States if George W. Bush got elected and re-elected? (7) Do American atheists purchase items with dollar bills that say "In God We Trust" on them? (8) Can two homosexuals physically produce children after having sexual "intercourse"? (9) Does the Associated Press use the terms "pro-choice" instead of pro-abortion and "anti-abortion" instead of pro-life? (10) Is it possible an aborted child could have become a genius if he or she had the chance to live?

    I'm basing this after just two episodes, so it could get better. Actually, it'd almost be impossible for it to get worse. The premise *could* work. The country is polarized enough that, basically, a right-wing only show could develop a niche. But for that to work, I'd have to think it would need to be better than this.Quite frankly, I'm not sure the two anchor format works for this type of show. The feel of it is trying to be a Jimmy Fallon/Tina Fey exchange from Weekend Update on Saturday Night Live. Only, the exchanges were really forced. The set seems inappropriate for the show, looking much more like a local access news show than that of a national show. The laugh track takes even more away from the show, making it look even more like a local access show.As I said, potentially this show could develop an audience and develop. However, based off the first two episodes, it has a lot of work to do. This success or failure of this show won't have as much to do with left/right, right/wrong, Republican/Democrat, but rather whether or not it simply becomes a better quality product.

    Well the only good thing to say about this horrid show is that it will be certainly be short lived. The "jokes" are truly unlike anything I have ever seen on television before in that they have absolutely no bias towards humor. Also it makes you wonder how Fox News will be able to continue to claim to be fair and balanced after laying this egg. Unlike the Daily Show it was meant to mimic the HHNH makes no attempt at throwing jabs at both sides of the political spectrum. The show leans so far right it's a wonder it doesn't fall over (that was a bad joke, but it is far funnier than anything you'll see on the HHNH). On the other hand it should be fun to watch Ann Coulter and Rush Limbaugh continue to pretend that this stinker is funny.
