The Nightly Show Cancelled

So Larry Wilmore's reign of being the first black host on Comedy Central has come to the end.  Now the big reason that I read on ismyshowcancelled.com is that the show just didn't resonate with the audience.  The ratings has fallen and the network felt it was time to go.  

Now my thought was this and I talked this over with friends.  The show was probably removed due to complaints by people who either were never happy with a lot of what Wilmore was talking about or simply because a black man is hosting a talk show, but that was my thought.  

I will admit the show was going through some changes and I can see honor can throw people off, but I felt the show was finally stabilizing with some great segments, like Pardon the Intergration, Nightly Nightly and of course The Unblackening.  I am just saying the show should have at least finish the second season and then make a decision.  

This show was great and I am not happy to see it go.  Thank you Larry Wilmore.  You and Trevor were just what America needed, but I guess some out there just can't handle that much blackness.  I look forward to you guys next project.  

Some one should start a movement to have another network save the show or hire you to do a different talk show.  We will miss you all.
