Gutfeld has not been on due to breaking news coverage, according to Tweets sent out on the show’s official Twitter account.
He further explained the show would skip its normal airings to provide more time for coverage of the Russian invasion of Ukraine.
Greg’s mother-in-law was able to evacuate Ukraine into Poland and reunite with her daughter in Warsaw.
During a segment on The Five, he played a clip of the tearful reunion between his wife, Elena Gutfeld, and her mother, in front of the Renaissance Hotel in Warsaw, telling her mother in Russian: “Thank God.
Elena said waiting for her mother was “absolutely awful.”
Greg spoke about how his Fox colleagues who were reporting from Ukraine were helping his mother-in-law escape the country safely.
He later said her escape was complete because of his colleagues, calling them “unbelievably awesome” and “heroes.”
Greg told Fox correspondent Lucas Tomlinson, who is reporting in Ukraine, he believed his mother-in-law was staying at the same hotel in Lviv, and asked Tomlinson to give her his best.
A spokesman for Fox News told the Sun as of March 8 that Gutfeld! has not been canceled.
However, fans are still upset and have been voicing their opinions on Twitter.
One fan Tweeted, “What the hell? America needs your take on the world!! MLB is on strike, WW3 is breaking out, gas is at $5/gallon.”
Another viewer added: “ugh…I am really missing my late night laughs…there is only so much depressing news and constant repeat coverage that we can handle.”
As of now, there is no set date for when the show will return.
