Too smart for CNN
thm-1753312 December 2018
Liberal bias aside, I got give Cuomo credit.

First, my favorite part is the last 5 minutes when he hands off to Angry Don. The exchange is priceless, Lemon loves to give his two cents to Cuomo, and every night Cuomo walks away with a nickel. Cuomo is way too smart for Lemon and he keeps him in line with the usual light weight rants.

Normally there is a good one on one with his main guest and it is almost always not the normal CNN regurgitation we've come to expect.

FYI. tune out when he has a panel of talking heads on. You get enough of that already from the other 23hrs.

Good anchor, bad format and time
CinemaSlant20 June 2018
Chris Cuomo is a smart anchor. He lays things out simply and easy to understand. The bad part of this show is it's really difficult to watch and understand. The guests talk over each other...including Cuomo interrupting others. I want to hear both sides...even if someone is spewing lies. I cant imagine the show runners dont understand this. They need to rethink how they approach guests. And I partly agree...this time slot is bad for this format. This should be on earlier. The evening is a time to chill and relax and get your news. This confrontational format is tough to watch. CNN should put him before Erin Burnett.

Good show at the wrong time of day
cathysmithn1 February 2018
I really like Chris Cuomo and enjoy him on New Day but I find his aggressive style off-putting at that time in the evening when trying to wind down. Anderson Cooper and Don Lemon' more low-key styles, while equally effective, seem better suited to a mid-evening program.

Zero facts.
bvaeurdc17 February 2021
This host does not tell the facts. Zero integrity shown by the network for airing this biased host who pushes his own narrative.

Why Believe the Anchors when you can't even Believe the Promo
mherrity17 March 2021
This morning I heard that the Washington Post is walking back it's reporting of President Trump" Pressures Georgia's Secretary of State Raffensperger about the Senatorial Elections." It seems the source was anonymous and the supposed threatening quote was not quite what Trump said. Trump told Secretary of State to scrutinize the vote. This was one of the planks for the second impeachment hearings and the anchors of Cuomo Primetime talked about multiple times. Since the hoax was proven to be false and CNN refuses to acknowledge such I can have to give it one star and wonder how many other stories were unsubstancated.

Way too aggressive
dayana42121 June 2018
Chris Cuomo is an intelligent person but his style of interviewing is aggravating. Cuomo is way to aggressive and does not let the guests to finish their thoughts.Constantly in an argumentative mode.

Excellent show.
calandfor22 June 2018
Cuomo gets his facts straight. Presents both sides and gives the audience the clarity in every situation. Excellent show.

Terribly unpleasant to listen to idiots yell at each other for a whole hour
GrammarMatters8 February 2019
I'm actually not sure how smart and competent a reporter/newshost Cuomo is - because I absolutely CANNOT STAND to watch this type of stupidly confrontational argumentative yelling at each other for the entire hour.

It's bad enough if you get two talking heads from either side of the political spectrum that do nothing but scream idiotically at each other, but Cuomo seems to think this is ENTERTAINING!

I might expect this sort of garbage from Fox News or geraldo rivera or other no talent hacks - but I'd rather put my head in a blender than expose myself to this 'format' of infotainment.

Cuomo Prime Time Sept 19 at 9:30 **WHITE BOARD**
jimmylgeorge20 September 2018
Loved the graph drawn on the white board showing the yes/no outcomes of Dr. Ford's possible testimony. Perhaps try out a smart board. You could have all the same info on the board while items being discussed could light or "pop" as discussed. The item would then fade as you move to the next item. The eraserboard served its purpose just fine, but to me seemed a bit sloppy. Keep on keeping on with News, guests, discussions and you will be at the top of this great time slot for political/news junkies! Best of Luck.

Worst show on CNN
quockquock23 May 2021
Well, it's the worst except for Jake Tapper and Anderson Cooper's shows. Keep on trying Cuomo, you'll get there. Just be yourself.

Amazing Modern Twist On Politics!
jesse_mccartney-844047 January 2019
Chris is quick, sharp and smart. He gets his points across quickly and covers so much and more in the hour time slot that he has. I am so happy that CNN gave him a permanent time slot. I recall back to his trial run, when it was over, he left me wanting more!! I had wondered, "Where was the hott guy in the black suit??" He was great on ABC but his spot is on prime time. He asks the hard hitting questions and pushes for answers. He goes at it with people but he never gets angry and he never personally insults him. And he always invites them back. It's even cooler to know that he's friends with a lot of the people he debates with. He doesn't do panels and just sit around with one sided people like most people do. He's also really funny. During his trial run he wore the same suit for a month. It takes a minute to get use to his style. Most journalists are so soft spoken and slow, Chris is loud and fast and that's what we need nowadays. He even helps his team book the guests that come on his show! How awesome is that? Many will say he got this far on his name and that's false. Yeah he's a Cuomo. But he works hard. I am a fan for life!!

Chris Cuomo Prime Wasting Time
trebork018 September 2018
Before I go on let me just say that I did like Chris Cuomo. He used to be a fair CNN reporter. I do not despise the man...but his show on the other hand...I do. Chris Cuomo's show is up against the Prime Time king and queen "Hannity" and "The Rachael Maddow Show". These two shows host the two biggest names of their organization...I can see how CNN is trying to do the same here...but it really does not work. Here is why.

Chris Cuomo comes across as a Hannity "wanna be". His whole persona and act in the show really reminds me of an actor who doesn't exactly understand their character. Very half-baked.

Another reason is that he is really to unnecessarily aggressive to his guests, which reminds me quite a lot about Piers Morgan when he was on. Sometimes when I watch him I just get that feeling that the producers are telling him "You need to be more aggressive.".

In all, I do not think he is a bad reporter or a bad man...I just think that he is not the right person to take the role of the attack dog. Other than that...I rest my case.

Cuomo finding it hard to find new guests?
ohanap-1507423 January 2018
Why are we seeing Kelley Anne Conway again - Twice in a matter of three weeks! She is full of "alternative facts" and her non stop chatter drives me nuts. Chris Cuomo talks over his guests and tries to get all of his guests in an outrage. I will not watch anymore. I do not need to watch arguing for an hour. Use to record all 24 hrs. of CNN, but that is definitely a hour I can turn to a different station.

Cuomo Is An Amateur
stevebee-014456 June 2018
Cuomo is nothing but a hatred spewing liberal. He refers to himself as a journalist and he's far from it. No fairness ,,, no objectivity,,, and he's totally a lightweight. He will fail at this endeavor and hopefully he will be off the air forever.

smart and relatively unbiased
rmccormick-935127 March 2019
My favorite cable news show, Chris Cuomo is a very smart (and very hunky :)) anchor and lawyer who is able to speak out against important figures in politics but still manages to have them come back on his show. When I pick what shows I watch, the first thing I look at is bias. Cuomo does not hold back on his personal opinions and constantly is criticizing political figures especially the Trump administration. Then why do his guests always return if he's so critical? Because he's fair and maintains an unbiased perspective which gives him credibility. He uses facts and makes fair points. If you're looking for real nonpartisan news and political commentary, if you're a democrat who wants to inform yourself and not just reaffirm your world views, then I recommend watching Cuomo Prime Time. Let's get after it!

He's not nearly as smart as he thinks he is
tchristopherperkins22 November 2019
Ultra biased host thinks he knows everything but he really is quite pitiful. I'd give it a zero if I could.

Fox News
jadedchogall13 January 2018
From the start, this show has been nothing but a platform for Trump surrogates to chain lie. Why do we need another Fox News to distort the truth? Get Cuomo off of the prime time when we need to hear the truth.

Awful News Show
sundevilemily5 December 2021
I don't understand that even before the Pandemic, it always seemed like everyone that appeared or guest starred is always negative about the topic of one of the segments and the host is always negative about the topic of the segment or the situation in different episodes and he always makes me cringe a lot every time he appears in the show.
