Is Donny Deutsch's show "Saturday Night Poliltics" now kaput?

It sure was a short run. I kept looking for it Saturday and couldn't find it. I liked the few shows that I saw and am disappointed it's no longer available. He had some great guests and I thought it was humorous...

bumped for the specials they have been running. I was looking for it last night but there was a prison reform special on which seemed like it was probably more important for the time being. Maybe he needed a little off time as many of the show hosts are doing right now.

But he was booted twice by events taking place, then cancelled. They gave him the tired, old pundits that are on daytime. He could replace Chris Hughes,Joy or Al.

He certainly has the charisma!

Donny is a New Yorker and sounds like it. So did his guests. New Yorkers are delightful to me but to others out in the country they sound a little too brash and in your face.

He was also saddled with boring guests.

No to worry though, Donny is an ad man doing ads for Democrats!
