Sydney Colvin on LinkedIn: Greg Gutfeld Extends Contract at Fox News Channel (EXCLUSIVE) (2024)

Last week Super Bowl wasn’t the only hot TV show in town. At Comedy Central, the iconic Daily Show premiered the return of Jon Stewart, the host that led it to become one of the most watched and followed shows on American television. The Daily Show's unique way of telling the news, mixing comedy and satire with real, well-structured and researched analysis, grabbed the attention of audiences across the US and became one of the most watched daily telecasts in the country.With the upcoming Presidential election looming, Jon Stewart is once again at the helm of the show, even if only hosting the Monday show. Last week marked the return of Stewart at the desk and it started the new season of the Daily Show with a bang. Not only did the show get an audience rating of 1.9 million viewers across all broadcasts - the show’s biggest audience in the last 5 years (source: https://lnkd.in/d9CdA3Ky), but it also brought a highly engaged audience.With an Emotional Impact Score (EIS) of 614, last Monday's Daily Show was 14% more engaging than Mediaprobe’s benchmark for all US TV telecasts. Jon Stewart’s opening analysis of the news got an EIS of 689, which was 20% higher than the rest of the show, and 36% above the benchmark for US television.The moment when Stewart went from cheering President Biden’s leaving his press conference to mock despair as the President returned to address more questions, to ill fortune, was the highest peak of engagement of the show with a score of 1,287 EIS. Not quite a Super Bowl touchdown, but definitely a memorable moment for the audience.#JonStewart #TheDailyShow #Mediaprobe #audienceinsights #mediameasurement #emotionalimpact #television #comedy

Who doesn't love most or some of these beloved, laughter and smile inducing 📺sitcoms?Annie ---There’s something uniquely satisfying about prime-time network comedies. Maybe it’s their self-contained nature, with most story lines introduced and resolved within a single episode. Maybe it’s their brevity, each half-hour studded with commercial breaks long enough to visit the kitchen or bathroom. Maybe it’s the comfort of entertainment conceived to elicit laughter from the broadest possible range of viewers. More likely, it’s all of the above.Which is why, although they’ve dwindled in number and declined in quality since cable and streaming started to erode Big 5 broadcasters’ dominance over the market for original scripted programming, network sitcoms’ absence has been felt amid a fall TV season delayed by strikes. And while the WGA and SAG-AFTRA have both ratified new agreements with the AMPTP, it could still take months for Hollywood to start cranking out television at its usual pace.With that in mind—and with holiday travel and downtime on the horizon—I’ve put together a sort of bucket list of network sitcoms, spanning from I Love Lucy through the present. ...READ More...#tvshows #sitcoms #streamingmedia #comedy #laughter Hon.

Two-parters became the go-to move for films and television in the 2010s and early 2020s. From Harry Potter to Stranger Things to Breaking Bad, two-part moviesand television seasons have embraced the waiting game (sometimesyears) for finales. But is the trend decreasing interest in the properties?"For an “Emily in Paris,” it’s nonsensical. The show is a runaway hit that plenty of viewers recognize as objectively bad, but that won’t stop them from coming back — nor will a two-part release prompt them to rewatch the series from the beginning or even refresh Season 4 Part 1 before September 12 (again, I have already forgotten and do not care to remember). The two-part release grates because it’s the most shameless thus far, unsuited to this specific show, and I suspect the results will be underwhelming compared to the benefits experienced by titles with higher production value."https://lnkd.in/gExU-uYp

🚀 Jon Stewart's return to conventional TV raises questions about audience retention in a changing TV landscape. As TV viewership declines, the focus shifts to digital platforms like TikTok and YouTube. Perhaps the real measure of success lies in the performance of Stewart's show clips on social media. There's an opportunity for Stewart to leverage Comedy Central's platform to gain social currency and reach diverse audiences. Will Stewart's comeback signify a significant shift in the TV industry's dynamics? #JonStewart #TVIndustry #DigitalPlatforms #ComedyCentral #SocialMedia #TVAudience #MediaDynamics
