We should all pitch in for a billboard next to her house. It could say "Ms. Schumer, The Pests Win. You Lose. Good Day, Ma'am! - The Opie and Jimmy Army, Commemorating the Pat Battle of Schumer Town."
God, I'm in awe of how much control South Park has over CC. They saved the channel by choosing to be on their station in the 90s and now they are the only thing keeping them afloat.
Matt and Trey could ask for just about any amount of money on any terms they want and they would have to give it to them to survive.
While @Midnight is kind of lame, it seems like the perfect show for the timeslot. It's fast paced for channel flippers, and if it builds a following, it's name pretty much forces execs to not try it in a better time slot, then cancel it. If it was Hardwick's idea, it was brilliant, because it'll be able to run forever, it takes very little effort to make, the guests generate the humor, and having any following at all makes it better than whatever movie they'd show.
It was this sub that got the joke thief ball rolling, so we atleast helped. People here put out multiple videos that were picked up by all sorts of "news" sites. People weren't accusing her of thieving before that, then there were theft allegations all over her youtube videos.
Did you not read that last message? Are you too stupid to look through the timeline of when she was accused of theft the night of her Apollo special, then look at when the videos were made, then look at her tanking popularity? Do some research, you lazy queer.
I keep thinking that this place is running out of steam and then something always happens to jumpstart its shriveled black heart back to life. I'm embarrassed by how much faggoty joy I get out of this place.
That's the title of her next book! I can picture the cover now--We're looking up at a 300+lbs Amy in Navy Seal fatigues, rappelling from a helicopter, but her pants are ripped across the crotch, revealing her mangey, pixelated vagina. Bestseller.
She probably means they haven't starting writing the next season yet. There is no fucking way we're lucky enough to be rid of Wilmore and Schumer in the same week.
I would still think he would technically "work on her show" during its off season, are people really not employed by comedy central just because the show is between seasons?
Not really though. The Writers Guild, and other TV unions have very specific rules about hours worked and pay periods, resulting in writing "seasons" and breaks. When you hear that a TV writer makes X a week, that typically doesn't refer to 52 weeks a year.
Sure, he could be working on sketches and jokes between seasons, but isn't technically employed or paid at the time.
Even the head writer. Technically CC renewed the show for a fifth season in January, before the fourth season even premiered. But that doesn't mean it will happen. These long term renewals are not always iron-clad. Often they're tendered when a show is popular and the producers want a level of commitment from the studio in order to develop stories or character (less applicable in sketch than dramas or mysteries, but still).
One thing CC cited in their renewal press release 8 months ago was that although the ratings were mediocre, the show had a hot "viral factor". The same virus that later exposed her shittiness, then fell off the map.
Even if CC is committed, I wouldn't be surprised if Schumer walked away. She has to know that the show has deteriorated and is a sinking ship, and that it's better to walk away and try something new. In that respect, she's in the same boat as Jim Norton.
Now I know how the Nazis and Commies felt when they steamrolled Poland and split it down the middle, except in this case its a bunch of scumbags from this subreddit and a bunch of fat SJW dykes steamrolling Big Amy and her former writing staff
She's going to spin it that she stepped away to focus on her movie career and stand up. Comedy Central may have even allowed her to save face by claiming to renew it for another season so she could walk away on her own.
But the ratings tanked, far too many stolen sketches being pointed out, she fucking stole a sketch from another CC show that had aired just a few months before hers for fucks sake, and the network is trying to get back to comedy I think with all the shows being dumped. They probably told her it was done and she was too afraid to argue and actually want to do another season and watch the ratings drop all the way down. So she let them "renew it" and then they allowed her to say no thanks I want to leave.
Now they just have to ditch Trevor Noah and either try to save The Daily Show or make a clean break with the past and cancel it too and start fresh.
"Doing Standup and focusing on writing more for the next year at least. We are slated for a season 5 but not in the foreseeable future," she tweeted Thursday morning. Schumer then thanked Comedy Central for giving her time to work on other projects and promoted her new book, "The Girl with the Lower Back Tattoo."
Seems Piggy Cunt is backing off of her statement that the show is finished. And she pretty much said what I said she would. And I'll bet the show never comes back. Her saying it should be back in a year or so is just a face saving maneuver.

is CC cleaning house of all the SJW trash? First Larry Wilmore now this.
35 Guinness525 2016-08-18
If there's any bit of justice in the world, CC's next announcement will be that a show with Colin Quinn is in the works.
22 drexler57346 2016-08-18
Jim Morton with a small part that ends up on the cutting room floor.
7 theendofanerror 2016-08-18
Nothing will get those lucrative 18-34 year old eyes back on CC like a dude in his mid-50's.
9 SWIMsfriend 2016-08-18
considering their highest rated shows 2 years ago was from Jon Stewart and South Park and Key and Peele.
so 1 show by a guy in his mid 50s and 2 shows by guys in their mid 40s.
0 theendofanerror 2016-08-18
Fair enough.
12 Knightscribe 2016-08-18
Besides South Park and the Daily Show, 3 seasons seems to be the average half-life on CC.
That said, good job, boys. Thank you for your shervish.

It is impressive, and I bet tons of creators would kill to have their kind of relationship with a network.
Fuck CC for cancelling That's My Bush though. I needed that show until 2008.
6 SWIMsfriend 2016-08-18
pretty much, i can only thing of like 7 shows that lasted longer. South Park, Tosh, Daily Show, Keey and Pelle, Reno 911, Colbert Report, workaholics
3 racemic_mixture 2016-08-18
Reno 911 is one of those shows you never missed 'til it was gone.

I like that weve just went ahead and took complete credit for her shitty show not being renewed for another season
1 Ant_Sucks 2016-08-18
Well it was renewed for a 5th season on January 6th. The joke thieving video went viral on January 20th. Credit deserved.
