Members Khan Posted November 16, 2013 Members Share Posted November 16, 2013 How is "Up Late" doing in the ratings? Do you think this controversy will have any long-term effects on the show? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members marceline Posted November 16, 2013 Members Share Posted November 16, 2013 In spite of his obvious issues, Baldwin is actually a very good interviewer. He's filled in on a number of NPR shows and has done a very good job. It's a shame he can't keep his temper under control. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members VirginiaHamilton Posted November 16, 2013 Members Share Posted November 16, 2013 Easy - he's a white male in America who - in spite of his misogynistic, racist, and homophobic behavior - has been rewarded over and over again with plenty of opportunities and excuses from counterfeit "liberals" who'd soon as throw a non-white person under the bus for lesser offenses.

Members DaytimeFan Posted November 17, 2013 Members Share Posted November 17, 2013 I have never understood the appeal of Alec Baldwin. I hope his career is over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members juppiter Posted November 17, 2013 Members Share Posted November 17, 2013 I honestly love Alec Baldwin, always have, and I have a way different view of him than you all do. To me, he is a trainwreck who stirs up as much [!@#$%^&*] as possible, but deep down, he has a good heart, and has always been a terrific actor. I loved him on "Knots" and I loved him on "30 Rock" for entirely different reasons. He has lost his looks, but he is a liberal's liberal, and any homophobic remark he makes I truly believe he can blame on the alcohol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Graham Posted November 18, 2013 Members Share Posted November 18, 2013 He's always been a gross mess. Typical working class Irish man. Money can never rid a person of their roots. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Khan Posted November 28, 2013 Members Share Posted November 28, 2013 I've heard MSNBC has pulled the plug for good. Is that true? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
