I think that a lot of people feel like this show has had a lot of resonance in the culture. We didn’t get quite the numbers we wanted, but resonated it certainly has. But you know what? When they want to cancel you, what can you do? You can’t really make arguments against it. They have their reasons. So there’s not much I can really say except I’m happy that they gave us this opportunity in the first place and we really gave it our best shot and had fun.

I am the most proud that we set out to do a show to present voices that rarely get a chance to be heard on television, people who don’t get to be seen all the time, and to take the underdog perspective a lot of the time, and to tackle tough issues like race or even class when there are so many people who are feeling left out in the country right now.

chescaleigh Today we got the sad news that @thenightlyshow has been cancelled. I truly couldn’t have asked for a better show to help me grow as a writer and performer. I’ve learned so much from the cast, writers, producers and Larry. While saying goodbye is hard, I can’t wait to see what’s next for all of us. Here’s to always keeping it 100 no matter where we end up. Thanks for the laughs fam.
