Fox News Channel’s ensemble opinion show, The Five, launched as a summertime replacement for Glenn Beck after his June 30 departure, has been given the 5 PM time slot on a permanent basis. The roundtable of five co-hosts will feature rotating FNC personalities Dana Perino, Bob Beckel, Eric Bolling, Juan Williams, Kimberly Guilfoyle, Greg Gutfeld and Andrea Tantaros. “The Five is unlike any show in news and politics, from the co-hosts’ chemistry to the provocative yet fun presentation style,” said Fox News chairman and The Five creator Roger Ailes. “It has quickly connected with the audience, and I’m pleased to install it in our daily lineup.” The Five has steadily built viewership since its debut, increasing by 16% in total viewers and 26% in 24-54. It ranked as the sixth-most-watched show in cable news with in Q3 with an average of 1.4 million total viewers.

A right wing version of The View; sounds fun!
Beck,Williams and Kimberly Guilfoyle are CONS? That is news to me!
Beckwel I meant
About as fun as The View itself, with less cackling.
If you get rid of Beckel, it would actually be watchable! Love the end seats, with Guilfoyles gams in full view! And why the HELL doesnt this Bolling guy ever wear a friggin tie and button his top button? Is that his “schtick”? Hey, Okie from Muskogee, this is NEW YORK CITY, the buiness capital of the WORLD, and men wear TIES and button up whlle wearing suits, esp on TV!
Have to disagree. Beckel is the draw for me on this show (I catch Gutfeld at 3:00 am doing his Red Eye show, where he is much, much better). The show really brought something out in Beckel; conversely, I’ve grown more exasperated with Eric Bolling every time I watch.
It’s Fox…put on an hour of a parrot shouting “Where’s the birth certificate! Where’s the birth certificate? >>bawk<< and you're pretty much guaranteed their mongoloid audiences of witless inbreds will watch.
I like it. Beckel is his usual liberal self but I love looking at Guilfoyle and Perino. They are both soooo hot!
I tuned in not expecting much. Found that the people and views i expected were often the opposite – when Beckel and Gutfeld go at it it is really side-splitting at times. I like Perino more and more. They dont yuck up the news – they take the serious issues seriously – but always find a few minutes for the comic or offbeat. Unlike a lot of panel shows there isnt a lot of shouting or one personality doing all the talking – very evenhanded with everyone having a say on the issues brought up. Not surprised to hear that it is being extended past the summer
Agreed. I’m not a conservative in much except for some certain economic issues, and I still find the show to be a breath of fresh air. Beckel is hilarious, and without him the show would be pretty bad, which is evidenced by the 4 or 5 shows they’ve done without him.
A pretty good show, due to Gutfeld and Becker – almost as good as RedEye and in a different universe from babbling dreck like The View.
The girls’ use of gigantic false eyelashes is sort of annoying, though.
Mr. Ailes, you forgot to mention Monica Crowley, who happens to be one of the smartest people on your network. No disrespect to Andrea or Kimberly, but Monica is even par with Perino. You should mention her in some way. Can’t believe your forgot ?????????????????
This show is a waste of time ,I watched it a few times, boring, beckel makes a fool of himself every day, the rest is just not worth my time, so I have time to do something constructive by not watching.
