David Walliams will 'earn £250,000' for Nightly Show
At least there's some consolation for David Walliams, who has faced harsh criticism from viewers and critics alike for his stint presenting ITV's new entertainment show. According to a new report, the comedian will receive £50,000 per episode of The Nightly Show, which works out at £250,000 for five days' work.
The Telegraph, 2nd March 2017ITV could move The Nightly Show after ratings crash
ITV could reschedule The Nightly Show and bring back the News at Ten after ratings crash by more than half.
As ITV's news at 10:30pm dips below 1m viewers in its new slot, serious questions are being asked of the entertainment show that has replaced it at 10pm.
Ben Dowell, Radio Times, 1st March 2017The Nightly Show: Britain's latest crack at US-style TV
It's clearly too soon to judge the chances of The Nightly Show after only one of its declared 40 editions. But, if the first night proves representative, the show may struggle to equal, on any of its five nights, the level of star power that Graham Norton manages on his one.
Mark Lawson, The Guardian, 28th February 2017The Nightly Show: 'Truly awful, gut wrenching rubbish!'
It had riled people up the wrong way before it had even started. And sadly for ITV, the network's newest chat show - The Nightly Show - has left an even bitterer taste in viewers' mouths following it's debut transmission on Monday night.

Ellie Harrison, Radio Times, 28th February 2017The Nightly Show pulls almost 3m viewers
The launch of The Nightly Show on ITV attracted almost 3 million viewers on Monday night, but the News at Ten recorded its lowest Monday audience of the year so far in its new temporary 10.30pm slot.
Jasper Jackson, The Guardian, 28th February 2017This new daily entertainment show, which features comedy, video clips and studio guests, has been preceded by a trailer of absurdly exaggerated camp starring opening host David Walliams. This snippet - which climaxes in Walliams being served champagne by a buff, half-naked waiter on rollerblades - probably sets the tone for a show that's unlikely to be understated. Future hosts include John Bishop and Gordon Ramsay.
Phil Harrison, The Guardian, 27th February 2017Preview - The Nightly Show
This week ITV is bringing back some hit shows and starting some new ones. One of these new editions is quite a big one, seeing as how it has taken over the place previously held by News at Ten.
Ian Wolf, On The Box, 27th February 2017The Nightly Show review
James Corden and his fellow US talkshow hosts can sleep easy in their squishy Hollywood beds tonight because The Nightly Show (ITV), a British attempt to emulate what they do, fell as flat as a Shrove Tuesday pancake. In the process, it made such slick American TV productions look even better.
Michael Hogan, The Telegraph, 27th February 2017TV Review: The Nightly Show
ITV1's much-trailed attempt at a topical comedy and chat show five nights a week started with a plodding episode that was equal parts unoriginal and uninspiring.
