On Monday, NBC’s Third Hour todayShow brought on by leftist Fully Frontal host Samantha Bee and celebrated the upcoming 200th episode of the vile comedian’s TBS show. The hosts gushed over the “huge milestone” being a “very big deal” and wondered how Bee could “raise the bar” with the show going forward. Bee’s wildly offensive language in 2018 almost cost Bee her job.
“This morning, we are catching up with hilarious and incredibly busy Samantha Bee. Of course her late-night comedy show, Samantha Bee – Full Frontal, takes a satirical look at news and politics,”Jacob Soboroff was the co-host filling in for Bee. He is featured at the end of the 9:00 a.m. ET hour segment, skipping any mention of Bee’s radical left-wing ideology.
Co-host Sheinelle Jones hailed: “And she’s about to reach a huge milestone. This week, her 200th episode will air. and she’s here this morning to tell us all about it.” After Jones and Soboroff congratulated Bee, Jones gushed that “It’s a very big deal.”Soboroff replied moments later. “200 episodes, huge deal.”
Rather than talk about Bee’s outrageous attacks on Republicans and conservatives, including her calling former First Daughter Ivanka Trump a “feckless c***t” in 2018, Jones instead lobbed softballs like: “First of all, you’ve had some awesome guests. Do you have a favorite or a few favorites?”
Bee exclaimed after chatting about some of her favourite celebrity guests: “I feel like we’ve accomplished a lot in our little 200 episodes.”Jones applauded “You have.” Bee remarked on how “proud” she was of the incendiary program.
Jones cheered the entire show on. “I hate to say, ‘So now what’s next?,’ but do you keep doing more of the same, do you try to raise the bar?”Be assured “…we try to have fun with the show, so we’re always, like, just throwing the best stuff at the wall.”
“And so we’re kind of going into this next midterm year in a state of, you know, like, fear, and trying to make hay with what is given to us,”Bee observed, evidently concerned that Democrats could be heading for a massive electoral defeat 2022.
Soboroff wondered how the leftist bomb-thrower would “approach” the upcoming campaign season:
Well, and the hay you were making before was in Donald Trump’s America. Now we’re in Joe Biden’s America. With the midterms coming up, it’s always intense, are you going to get on the road? How will you approach it? What are your plans for approaching it?
Bee promised to go across the country: “I think we probably will get on the road. I think by the time that all gets rolling, we’ll be out exploring the world. Like I’m going to go to D.C. today…”
Jones was smitten after the pleasant sit-down. “Well, congratulations. Two hundred episodes is quite an accomplishment….So I hope you’re able to receive it and enjoy before you head back out.” Bee responded that she was “basking” in the continuation of her show.
Bee has been promoted on the 3rd Hour Today program in the past. In 2018, while the liberal host was still embroiled in controversy over her disgusting insult of Ivanka Trump, Soboroff tried to use the “she’s a comedian” defense to excuse attack. When interviewing Bee in 2019, co-host Craig Melvin wondered if she had been able to “learn” anything from the incident. Bee smugly declared: “I didn’t learn much.” Melvin and fellow co-host Al Roker replied with laughter.
Back in February, Bee appeared on the show and touted how, with President Biden taking office, “we’re having so much fun now….feeling that adults are in charge a little bit gives us some freedom to talk about stuff we want to talk about, but also have fun and have musical guests on and just we’re having so much more joy in our jobs right now, and that is – we need that.”
Leftists like Bee can hurl the most vile verbal assaults imaginable and they’ll still be treated like “hilarious” entertainers by their allies in the equally left-wing news media.
This celebration of Bee still being on the air despite her outrageous behavior was brought to viewers by Dunkin’ Donuts and Walmart. This is your chance to fight back against advertisers sponsoring content like this.

JONES: It’s a very big deal.
BEE: It’s a very big deal, yeah.
(…)
SOBOROFF: So, 200 episodes, huge deal. Rumor has it you’re doing something pretty epic to celebrate.
BEE: Yes, we – well, for one thing….For one thing, I’m going to go to D.C. today, I’m going to film in D.C. But also, I got – I may or may not have gotten a tattoo to commemorate.
(…)
JONES: Okay, let’s talk about the show. First of all, you’ve had some awesome guests. Is there one or more of your favorites?
BEE: I do have some favorites. I’m referring to Sigourney weaver. Our second Not the White House Correspondence Night was a parody of Aliens. And that was epic for me because I’m such a huge fan. We’ve had Lizzo on the show, we’ve been like the first stop for a lot of musical acts.
JONES: And you had Lizzo when she was like –
BEE: A bit like the other way [up]. David Duchovny. We’ve just had a lot of super special friends come on the show and it’s been amazing.

BEE: Well, we try to – I mean, for one thing, we try to have fun with the show, so we’re always, like, just throwing the best stuff at the wall. Like I love my writers and my producers and correspondents, it’s such a collaborative experience. And so we’re kind of going into this next midterm year in a state of, you know, like, fear, and trying to make hay with what is given to us.
SOBOROFF: Well, and the hay you were making before was in Donald Trump’s America. Now we’re in Joe Biden’s America.
BEE: Sure, yeah.
SOBOROFF: With the midterms coming up, it’s always intense, are you going to get on the road? How will you approach it? What are your plans for approaching it?
BEE: It’s likely that we will be on the road. I think by the time that all gets rolling, we’ll be out exploring the world. Like I’m going to go to D.C. today, we’re kind of normalizing our experience. And you’ve got to get out – you know, you’ve got to get there, you’ve got to talk to people. So we’ll all be triple, quadruple, quintuple vaxxed, and we’ll just –
SOBOROFF – Just grab them all.
BEE: Get them all, I don’t know.
JONES: Well, congratulations. This is quite an achievement.
BEE: We are so grateful.
JONES: So I hope you’re able to receive it…
BEE: You are receiving.
JONES :… and enjoy it before you get back on the road.
