HBO should pick up both of them and their crew, and let someone other than John publicly eviscerate them during every show. HBO execs get off from the abuse! They could get 2x more of it, and less British accent!

Moron or not, they have John Oliver and despite him shitting on them on almost every show, he remains and persists. Honestly, this would be prime time to pick up these two cause their audience will follow them no matter where they go!

No, they should all go to PBS so it's (for now) freely available to everyone. Have them ask for donations to keep it going, PBS/NPR would be good for at least a while.

They're about to be defunded.

The fed govt only very partially funded them, the rest was donations. Which, at least from me, are going up substantially.
