I have been a regular viewer of The Five for 3 years and as a Republican, I admire and like Harold Ford Jr. He is actually one of my favorite hosts. I can actually tolerate the other Democrat hosts but I CANNOT tolerate Jessica Tarlov anymore.
Her totally obnoxious personality and idiotic arguments have forced me to turn off The Five and switch channels to watch ANYTHING BUT HER.
It's a shame, because the show is actually great without her and I would have given it 10 stars, if not for her.
Several of my friends agree with me. So I, as well as most of my friends boycott the show whenever she is on it.
The Five is losing viewers because of her.

I love The Five show and watch it daily even tho Juan is overly argumentative regarding anything to do with Trump. In his eyes the Democrats are always right even tho his "opinions" are not factual or proven wrong. He is so offensive that at times I change the channel until he is done. The smooth light flow you want you lost it with him there. His nastiness toward the other panel members is inexcusable. Just remove a huge biased named Juan and your ratings will improve for sure.

This show would be much better without Jessica.....I can't fine any credentials she has to open her big sneaky mouth about anything.
Harold is best Dem ...but he probably doesn't want to be there 5 days a week in crime riddled NY.
Or Tulsi would be next best.
Geraldo is about to old to do the show.. He's as bad as Biden....

I love the fair and balanced concept, however, if I wanted to hear Juan's liberal left views I would watch CNN.
Missing me some Kimberly!!!

I enjoy the format of the show. However, I don't feel that Juan Williams adds anything to the broadcast. His hatred of Trump is annoying and doesn't allow him to give an honest and logical response to political dialogue.
For most of the show he looks like a deer caught in the headlights. The other four hosts, also, appear to be growing tired of his demeanor as he can't contribute to an honest discussion.
The show should be renamed The Four + Juan. (=5)
Rotate the liberal for a variety of views as you currently rotate the thighs.

Juan Williams does not belong on TV.. His narrow view of politics is very
racist. I enjoy the rest of the panel and guests, but, get rid of Williams. I mute
the sound when he is speaking..

How can you have Donna Brazil on your show after what she did by providing debate questions to with Hillary? She is boring and tiresome, and not very knowledgeable.
It's so hard to watch The Five when you have a person like Juan williams on the show. He is such a disgrace to his profession. I wish the president and CEO of Fox news would take a moment and see the lies that Juan Williams spreads on the show The Five. Everything he's says is total bullsh_t. He degrades his colleagues and if you watch his stupid facial expressions when others on the show give their comments is disgusting.
You who are in charge need to get it together and take action so no more lies are spread by this idiot Juan Williams.
I love the Five for honest news and world hate to go to another source to get my news. PS I dought if anyone will read this but I can hope.
Sincerely Joseph Mueller.

I have always love to watch the Five but this Juan Williams idiot ruins the show. I will most likely stop watching as long as this Lying idiot is a part of the cast.

I watch the FOX news channel and I know many people do not depending on their politics, anyway I think one of the best and most fun little shows is "The Five". It features a table discussion between five hosts all FOX news analyst who discuss topics from current events to media, pop culture, law, entertainment and most carved up is politics. Bob Beckel(former Walter Mondale campaign manager) is the panel's only liberal and leaning democrat yet he's nice and always makes good arguments he's a joy to hear. And funny guy Greg Gutfeld brings humor as he always makes fun at crazy liberals and says the media should give conservatives a break! And Eric Bolling is a direct tough stated right wing guy who makes good arguments. And educated and elegant lady Dana Perino(former Bush press secretary)always gives good insight and thoughtful points she's smart. And now my favorite two parts of the show it's double eye candy and both have legs and know how to use them! First the hot and attractive attorney and FOX legal analyst Kimberly Guilfoyle she's such a pleasure to view I love when the camera's on her and it's fun when she sings to the music between topics! Then enter Greek Pennsylvania beauty the sexy Andrea Tantaros(former republican adviser)this gal knows her politics she fights for republicans and conservatives it's nice to see two beauties are on the side of the right! Overall both are knockouts who dress fit to kill! Overall good fun show if you watch FOX news then watch "The Five"
I think I'm just going to take what I said about the Gutfeld show and do the same thing here. It's not funny.
It's really not.
They go for claptaugher rather than laughter just like SNL does, only this time they do it with guests.
It's kind of the Right-Wing version of The View, only slightly hiper and not as hard to watch... but that doesn't mean you should watch it.
It's the kind of show that you just groan and roll your eyes at, and the people that love it just love it because they agree with it, not because it offers anything or actually makes people laugh.

Hi,
Since I requested that you bring Harold Ford to the FIVE panel instead of Juan Williams, he has greatly improved the conversation on the show.
But tonight I watched Tulsi Gabbard, a Democrat, bring refreshing and rational thoughts, instead of Democrat talking points.
If you can find a way to bring her to the panel from Hawaii even 1 week a month, she would be a welcome change!
Thanks again,
Mike Malinsky.

I like and watch The Five most of the time and I used to be able to accept the opposing opinions of Juan Williams but now I just mute him. He is incapable of providing an answer to a question without running off at the mouth trashing Pres. Trump. In addition he goes on and on and on and if someone tries to interject an comment his retort is "let me finish" but he doesn't finish unless Dana interrupts him to go to a new topic. He is quite rude. It wouldn't break my heart to see him replaced.
I like The Five. I just wish when viewers questions are asked the hosts would not talk over each other so I can't hear or understand their answers. Like today a question was who at Fox would you like to trade places with. I couldn't make out Jesse's answer. Greg said the guy who seats flip flops. I think Harold said Bret, not sure though. Never heard Judge Jeanine's answer and I don't think Dana said anything.

I love the five, but Juan makes it hard to watch sometimes. He is so full of hate for our president. I do wish they would replace him. If not will stop watching every day. I'll watch when Juan is not on. He has become more and more hateful. Makes show so unpleasant to watch.
Love "The Five"!!!!!!
Greg, Jessie, Dana, & Katie are GREAT!!!!
Juan was obnoxious, always interrupting.
Glad to be rid of him, but this new Democrat, Jessica is delusional & her voice is so annoying to listen to.
She needs to go as well.
Please replace her.

Geraldo belongs on CNN not on Fox News at all! He reminds me of a spoiled brat that always feels the need to throw self centered temper tantrums with his mouth!

"The Five" is presently one of FOX News' most successful analysis programs. It follows the general tone of the network – criticize wicked "Democrat" people and their "Liberal Media." A sampling of shows finds the discussion focusing on issues related to President Barack Obama. Every story presents the President in a negative light. A typical telecast finds the panel discussing what would normally be a positive story concerning Obama – the capture of the terrorist who is believed to be the mastermind behind the Benghazi attack which killed four US diplomats. There is no credit given to Obama for commanding the criminal's capture. Instead, "The Five" is critical of the terrorist being put on trial. The panel believes he should be put in "Gitmo" for life or killed without a trial...
Most interesting was the speculation that the terrorist would likely be "paid" to say he was influenced by "a video" to attack US diplomats. This was reported last month by The New York Times. It did not receive attention on FOX News because, frankly, it does not fit their narrative. It is interesting to see it mentioned on "The Five" in this manner – most likely, they are setting up viewers to disbelieve the terrorist's testimony, if he happens to mention the video as an influence. Of course, this is a reference to Muslims around that time being offended by a "YouTube" video. This may be why the panel opposes a trial...
Previously, this program followed the FOX News speculation – most evident on other programs – that the capture of the Benghazi terrorist (Ahmad Abu Khattala) was "orchestrated" by Obama to assist Hillary Clinton, who had just begun a book tour promoting her "Hard Choices" (in reality, this "book tour" is a preview of her likely Presidential run – which could be said to prove both sides think we're stupid). The most dominant host of "The Five" is snickering Greg Gutfeld, who also toes the party line on "Red Eye". To laughably prove their claim as "fair and balanced" the show includes rotund Liberal Democrat strategist Bob Beckel. To be perfectly honest, Mr. Beckel's primary function on "The Five" is to make the majority Conservative Republicans look young and hip. Mission accomplished.

I'm frustrated with how Jessica presents her points on The Five, especially compared to someone like Harold Ford Jr., who I feel brings more substance and balance. If a commentator seems to rely too much on poll numbers without deeper context or struggles under pushback, that can definitely affect the tone and credibility of the discussion. I as a viewers want sharp analysis, not just surface-level stats.
Her segments consistently take away from my experience of the show, it's totally fair to skip those episodes or even tune out. Time's too valuable to spend it being annoyed by a commentator who doesn't meet your expectations.

I tuned into the five and saw 4out of five host acting like bullies and with elementary comments ,does this gutfeld ever sit up straight or have anything good to say about anyone.Jesse really a professional commentator.I'm not a democrat but will not watch this immature show again moving on!
I love this show, we watch it faithfully daily. However, Geraldo Rivera has to go, he doesn't let people talk. He interrupted everyone when they try to talk.
He is entitled to his opinion but the interruptions are getting old.

Hillary won the popular vote and the guy that posted she didn't is another pathetic denialist. This show is 4 x as bad as most shows.

I gave The Five a good rating because I'm a viewer who is a productive, God-fearing, charitable, law abiding citizen with a sense of humor. Now if these terms don't describe you then you won't appreciate the panels perspectives and should stick with playing video games.
Jesse and Greg,
Stop talking over people and interrupting

He's always saying "to my mind." But he doesn't have one. He's a brainless Dem talking point robot. And he's annoying, always making faces and not entertaining. At least Bechel was fun. Juan has to go; I'm tired of muting him or changing the channel.
