Bye-Bye Samantha! The Worst of TBS’s Bee

It’s over for Samantha Bee. She’s done with slimming conservatives and vulgar language. Do itWell, at TBS. Twitter allows her to continue spewing hateful jokes.

Bee activated her official Twitter account, to officially present the show on Monday announceTBS cancelled her program Full frontal: “After 7 seasons, Full Frontal with Samantha Bee will not be returning to TBS this fall. We’re so thankful for our loyal audience, our amazing team, and that we got to annoy the right people every week….”

In seven seasons Bee did more than “annoy,” the “right people.” Most recently she used her platform to urge harassment of conservative Supreme Court justices — even after the assassination attempt on Brett Kavanaugh’s life. 

Bee was known to be a sexy person. She was so bad that she needed to apologize several times. Her most famous moment was in 2018, when she needed to make amends. calling Ivanka Trump the “c” word. She also attacked CPAC attendees for not having a CPAC badge in 2017. “Nazi hair.” Kyle Coddington later received an apology from Bee, who discovered that he had stage four brain cancer. 

TBS hosted Ted Cruz used vulgar language to disparage Republicans, such as House Speaker Paul Ryan and Texas Senator Ted Cruz. He even prayed that God would strike down the NRA. “a plague of boils.” 

These are some examples of Bee’s most offensive attacks against conservatives during seven years as host of TBS, which was subsequently cancelled. They were gathered from the MRC archives. 

[LANGUAGE WARNING]

 

Wishing “Hell” on Conservative Justices, Even After Threat to Kavanaugh

“It is insane that a Supreme Court that doesn’t represent a majority of Americans will cause women more death and suffering….I can’t describe how painful it is to be here now in a place where the Supreme Court has the power to erase 50 years of constitutional law. This isn’t the end of it, make no mistake. Conservatives won’t rest until all our rights are protected. We must take what we’ve fought for back. It’s not just about voting in November. It’s about doing everything in our power to protect and help vulnerable people access abortion across state lines. In Washington and every other restaurant, Justice, we must raise hell in the cities. [Samuel] Alito eats at for the rest of his life, because if Republicans have made our lives hell, it’s time to return the favor.”

Samantha Bee to Gun Owners: “Read the Room, Freaks!,” No Right to Your “Hobby”

 

 

“If you thought the unspeakable horror of last week might have convinced the NRA to cancel its annual circle jerk of a gun convention in [beep] Texas no less, you’d be wrong….Oh my God, read the room, freaks. To be fair there were some changes to the NRA’s lemon party. After artists Don McLean, Lee Greenwood and others took the opportunity to sing their songs, The Grand Old Night of Freedom Party was cancelled. Unfortunately, when it comes to people whose parents we wished had pulled out, no such luck….If you’re surprised the NRA is still kicking around you’re not alone. It’s been in legal and financial jeopardy for years. But it turns out its ‘gun rights above all rights’ message has been so ingrained in the Republican Party, the GOP will still hold a gun gala just days after a school shooting.”
— Host Samantha Bee on TBS’s Samantha Bee: Full Frontal, June 2, 2022. 

“For years we’ve known we have a gun violence epidemic in this country, but the past few weeks have been almost unbearable, and while you might think all of this would finally bring everyone together to do something, you’d be wrong and honestly, kind of dumb. This is America Human lives are unacceptable costs for any hobby, except if your hobby involves ritually giving up human life, which is fine. I mean, that’s the whole point. Sadly, it’s not looking like things will get better soon.”

So What If Andrew Cuomo Was an “A**hole,” He Was Still Our Pandemic “Dad”

“There were many, many times, actually, during the pandemic, where we had big…. Show-wide discussions about “How do we manage?” [former New York Governor Andrew] Cuomo? Because he’s super problematic. But the story about him out in the world was like, he’s a hero. And he’s the only person speaking about the pandemic in a fatherly way. And he is our dad….So it felt [like] a place where it wasn’t quite the time to be like, ‘Hey, just like, check it out, he’s actually an a**hole.’ We felt like we would just miss completely with our audience.”

Bee Begs Warren: Get back in

Bee Calls Ivanka Trump the “C” Word 

 

 

“Ivanka Trump, who works at the White House, chose to post the second most oblivious tweet we’ve seen this week. You know, Ivanka, that’s a beautiful photo of you and your child, but let me just say, one mother to another, do something about your dad’s immigration practices, you feckless c**t. He listens to you! Put on something tight and low-cut and tell your father to f***ing stop it!”

Bee Mocks Young Man for His “Nazi Hair”; He Actually Has Cancer

 

 

On the March 8, 2017 edition of TBS’s Full frontal host Samantha Bee mocked a young man, Kyle Coddington at the 2017 CPAC conference for having “Nazi hair.” But the man’s sister shot back at Bee on Twitter, telling her he actually had stage 4 brain cancer. 

In the segment Bee began by saying that “these days” she has “no fucking clue what conservatism means,” so she sent her correspondent Mike Rubens to CPAC to find out.

The video clips then show Rubens’ reporting from CPAC. He has a snarky voice-over mocking people for small things such as their appearance. At one point, Rubens says, “Last year, CPAC was dominated by Ted Cruz supporters and chirpy little shits with bow ties. These bowties are gone and replaced with Nazi hair. Nazi hair, Nazi hair, fuck off.” Coddington’s face then appeared on camera. 

Later, when Bee and her staff learned that the boy was suffering from Stage 4 brain cancer, they apologized and deleted the YouTube segment from their website before donating $1,000 to Coddington’s GoFundMe page.

 

Bee Hailed Disgraced Eric Schneiderman as a “Superhero”

In November 2018, Bee called now-disgraced Democratic New York Attorney General Eric Schneiderman a “superhero” before he was accused on May 7, 2018 of sexually abusing four women.

On May 8, 2018 Bee and her staff apologized for the fawning coverage and claimed they are “keeping this piece online in the interest of integrity.”

Bee initiated the November 8 in 2017 Full frontal segment by stating “it’s only been a year since Donald Trump was elected president,” even though to her, it felt like a century. The liberal comedian then claimed as if she were describing a member of The Justice League: “President Bonespur has had more endurance than predicted, especially if you were predicting his endurance by literally looking at any photo of him being physical ever. But there is hope on the horizon: a hero who stood up to democracy’s nemesis before.”

Bee also used a phrase that’s associated with the Superman comic book character by declaring: “Look! It’s a bird, it’s a plane! It’s a bird, it’s a plane!” before cutting to Schneiderman introducing himself as “the Attorney General for the State of New York.” Bee went on to air an embarrassing interview where she constantly flattered Schneiderman as a she asked “Are you going to lead us out of the darkness?”

 

Bee Likens ICE to Nazis in “Schindler’s List”

 

 

The May 23, 2009 edition Full frontalBee compared ICE agents (Immigration and Customs Enforcement), to Nazis. After beginning the segment by recalling that President Donald Trump held a meeting to discuss the issue of enforcing immigration laws, Bee maligned ICE as “the agency whose job application is just a single question asking if ‘the real hero of Schindler’s List was the girl shouting, “Goodbye, Jews!” She soon added: “Here’s a proposal: Let’s shut it the f*** down. I’m serious –  it’s awful, and we don’t actually need it.”

 

Bee Opens Show with Slam of “Fish-Faced, Horses*** Salesman” Cruz

 

 

On the February 8, 2016 premier of Bee’s TBS program Full frontal she berated Texas GOP Senator Ted Cruz as a “fish-faced, horseshit salesman” while playing with a noose.

 

Bee Slams “F–king Horrible” “F–king Coward” Paul Ryan

 

 

The April 18th edition Full frontal, Bee dropped “F” bombs on outgoing GOP House Speaker Paul Ryan as she told the Full frontal audience:  “In the shadow of Trumpism, it’s more important than ever to distinguish between honorable people we disagree with and actual bad people, so I want to be clear. Paul Ryan is a bad person –  he has always been a bad person.”

She then claimed that, when he was first elected to political office in Wisconsin, “he was on the far-fringe right of conservatism” as she complained about his opposition to abortion and invoked former Missouri Republican Senate nominee Todd Akin’s “legitimate rape” comments from the 2012 elections. She then added: “He’s not a statesman – he’s a wingnut. Paul Ryan isn’t just leaving because he wants to spend time with his children –  he’s leaving because he made a big mess and doesn’t want to deal with the fallout. I guess it’s like that famous Ayn Rand quote: “Run, run, you f — ing coward.”

 

Bee Slimes Catholic Church: “Sitting On More Treasure Than Smaug The Dragon”

 

 

The 22nd of June 2017,Full frontal Bee zeroed on the Catholic Church’s opposition to a proposed “child victims act,” and contended that “if you’re an institution that has hurt so many children that paying out civil settlements would make you go bankrupt, maybe you should?” The left-wing comedian added, “Anyway, it’s fine. It won’t. You’re sitting on more treasure than Smaug the Dragon [a character in The Hobbit], so pay up.”

 

Bee laments that the NRA is plagued by boils

 

 

The June 14, 2016, edition Full frontal, Bee blamed the Second Amendment supporters for the Orlando nightclub shooting and insulted those who offered prayers for the victims, but then offered her own mock prayer: “Are you there, God? It’s me, Sam. Bless the victims, their families and friends in this time of unimaginable pain. Give us the courage to say no more and while you’re at it, please send the NRA a plague of boils. Amen.”

Given her sexist attacks against at least half the country, it shouldn’t surprise that TBS lost her show. But she is likely to be picked by another lefty outlet. Because amongst the Hollywood elite you can be forgiven for lack of humor and even low-ratings, just as long as you are poking fun at the “right people.”
