Fox's "The Five" a surprising summer hit

NEW YORK (TheWrap.com) - Could "The Five" have a permanent place in Fox News 5 p.m. hour?
The show, a summer replacement for "Glenn Beck," is down only slightly in viewers, despite a lack of marquee names. In August, its first full month on the air, it averaged 1.5 million viewers, with 369,000 in 25-54 demographic, according to Nielsen.

*snip*

The show has earned more viewers at 5 p.m. than its two cable news rivals combined: CNN's "The Situation Room With Wolf Blitzer" averages 711,000 total viewers and 173,000 in the demographic, while "Hardball With Chris Matthews" averages 685,000 viewers and 157,000 in the demographic. Beck also handily beat his 5 p.m. rivals.

You have to admit, Bob does hold his own with 4 conservatives. Sometimes I wonder if he's as liberal as he wants everyone to think he is....kind of that "doth protest too much" sort of thing.

I think Dana Perino is terrific, and I've watched Greg Gutfeld on RedEye for a couple of years.
Just hand over the chocolate...back away slowly...far away....and you won't get hurt....

Save the Earth... it's the only planet with chocolate.

"My therapist told me the way to achieve true inner peace is to finish what I start. So far I've finished two bags of M&M's and a chocolate cake. I feel better already." – Dave Barry

A balanced diet is chocolate in both hands.
