What would be the opposite of "Hannity and Colmes?"

[Eric J in MN]

Suppose you were hired to create a show for a new liberal tv network, and you had to create the opposite of "Hannity and Colmes."

In other words, a tv show in which the liberal were dominant over the conservative co-host.

Who would the co-hosts be?

[sniffa]

1. cLaprood and whitLey?

on radio

[Eric J in MN]

3. Who are they? nt

nt

[sniffa]

16. taLk radio show

marjorie cLaprood the agressive LiberaL, and pat whitLey the passive conservative.

i have no idea if the show even exists anymore.

[TheCowsCameHome]

28. Marjorie Claprood and Pat Whitley are long gone from Boston

Claprood was good! She was a Democratic state rep. at one time. One sharp chick, let me tell you. She took no shit from anybody.

[sniffa]

30. i know - why my choice for the opposite

before i reaLized this was just a game of pick your own show. :P

[Idioteque]

2. Malloy and Chafee n/t

[longship]

10. I like that one.

Malloy, a fire breathing liberal.

vs.

Lincoln Chafee, a wimpy moderate repug.

It'd be like Godzilla vs Bambi every night!!

[Eric J in MN]

20. I'd tune in for that!

nt

[Debs]

39. I was thinking

Noam Chomsky and Alan Colmes. Since Hannity is a demonstrable moron, and fiercly partisan his opposite would be a brilliant non partisan like Chomsky. Since there isnt a real identity at ALL from the limp and featurless Colmes he could be his own opposite. I mean is hot or cold the opposite of tepid?

[MissWaverly]

4. Liberal Host Brad Friedman/the Brad Blog

with the resident underdog Tucker Carlson

[flakey_foont]

5. Cannity & Holmes?

[longship]

6. Gary Hart and Chuck Hagel?

But Hagel has guts. No, we need a gutless Repug. How about:

Gary Hart and Lincoln Chafee?

Or

Gary Hart and Susan Collins?

[IADEMO2004]

7. The Captain & Tinnille

Only one sings

[Iris]

8. Rhodes and Limbaugh

[Iris]

13. or Rhodes and Coulter

[Kikosexy2]

14. ooooo...

Rhodes bitch-slapping the hell out of Coulter...that would be splendid!

[Iris]

32. yeah. I figured that was better than her making Limbaugh cry like a baby!

[growlypants]

34. yes it would. that might actually turn me on. lol

[Lefty48197]

9. Sweeney and Snowe

as in John Sweeney, and Olympia Snowe.

[iconoclastNYC]

11. Mike Malloy and KellyAnne Conway

Mike Malloy would chew her up and spit her out! She can't get three words out without sounding like a moron.

Or Rachel Maddox and Anne Coulter. Any liberal next to Anne Coulter will win. Calling people names just makes you look like an idiot.

[Lubernaut]

12. Chomsky and Moran?

Might be fun...

[Nikki Stone 1]

15. Any intelligent show would be H & C's natural opposite

:)

[IADEMO2004]

18. Say Amen!

[DemInDistress]

17. for me it would be...

Bill Maher,Al Franken and John Stewart..I would love to see a 3 hour Situation Room with those 3 mentioned...
Does anyone know how many times Wolf Biltzer says "Situation Room"during his 3 hour show.GodI watch sometimes and every other sentence is we're in the Situation Room here.....This just in to the "Situation Room",breaking news coming into the "Situation Room",we live here from the "Situation Room".

[Bonhomme Richard]

19. Jesus Christ and Mohammed

Exact opposite
That's the real Jesus Christ, not the faux one right wing christians believe in.

[Zenlitened]

21. "Reason & Backbone"?

:shrug:

[renie408]

22. How about "Sannity & Backbone"...

[Zenlitened]

24. LOL!

"Sanity & Cojones"?

:D

[renie408]

25. Perfect!!

[Zenlitened]

29. .

:toast:

[Roland99]

23. Carville and Bush

[ZombieNixon]

26. Stewart and Goldberg

as in Jon Stewart and Bernie Goldberg. Ever since that interview on TDS...

[DancingBear]

27. delete

read it wrong, and I'm too damn tired to try agian.

[foo_bar]

31. Cuomo and Giuliani

Mario Cuomo used to have a funny radio show (I forget who the cohost was), funny on purpose unlike Giuliani's radio theatre ("This excessive concern with little weasels is a sickness!" -source). Together they'd make broadcasting history, like Brain and Pinky.

[tk2kewl]

36. you'd need a weak liberal-rupug as the voice of the right==>Cuomo & Pataki

[foo_bar]

38. but you need ratings, too

If you want the full Bambi vs. Godzilla effect, I'd go with Arlen Specter vs. Bill Clinton.

[growlypants]

33. Malloy and Limbaugh.

I would LOVE to hear Malloy disassemble Limbaugh every night. I would turn my cable back on just for that one show.

[frictionlessO]

35. Malloy and Cooper.

Though Cooper is still more likable than Colmes at times...

[Arkana]

37. Rhodes (or Franken) and McCain.

That's a matchup I'd like to see.

[Lochloosa]

40. Laurel and Hardy?

[rasputin1952]

41. Brains and Spine?

:shrug:

[Telly Savalas]

42. Hannity and Colmes is a conservative show?

I thought it was a parody of right wing television. You're trying to tell me that Sean Hannity really is that fucking stupid?

[rhett o rick]

43. Doesn't matter if your stupid or not, if u preach hate, the results are

the same. People like Hannity make me want to rethink the value of the 5th amendment.
