The Factor (1996–2017)
7/10
Not for everybody!
10 May 2007
Bill O'Reilly is an acquired taste. His audiences probably have a lot of gray hair if you ask me. But then again, he can be fun to watch and he is definitely fun to spoof on Mad TV and Saturday Night Live. O'Reilly's audiences are probably Republican, blue and white collar, conservative etc. His appeal is that he does tell it like it is even if it offends us liberals and everybody else who doesn't agree with his views and stance on major issues. Then again, he is practicing Catholic. Although, he doesn't practice the Catholic teachings about forgiveness and compassion as much as he should. He should work on it with his show. I don't think the beloved Pope John Paul II would have watched and given his approval to this show because O'Reilly's just angry at the way that the world has changed from his childhood. Of course, it can't be helped. O'Reilly's demeanor is the reason that most people would watch the show in the first place. He does get angry and does argue with his guests. He pulls no punches and doesn't admit when he's wrong so if you agree with him most of the time, you should watch the show and if not watch something else.
