No, You Shut Up! is an American news talk show on Fusion TV that was created by David Javerbaum (the former head writer and executive producer of The Daily Show with Jon Stewart ), hosted by Paul F. Tompkins, and produced by The Jim Henson Company under its Henson Alternative banner. ^{[1] [2]}

On May 2, 2016, Tompkins announced on his official website that the show had stopped production a quarter into its fourth season. ^[3]

Format

The show details Paul F. Tompkins and a panel of four different puppets (played by different members of the Miskreant Puppets from Puppet Up! as well as puppets from other shows) debating about the different issues of the day from their unique perspective until they get too angry to discuss them any further. There were some later episodes in which the fourth panelist was an actual celebrity.

When the show returned from commercial, it would typically show footage of what happened during the break (for instance, a panelist talking to the camera or a heated discussion in "Crab Fire" where a Red Republican Crab and a Blue Democrat Crab discusses minor issues). There was also a segment on the show called "No, You Open Up" where Paul F. Tompkins interviews a panelist.

By Season Three, the show was reworked to detail different segments before the round table discussions. During some round table discussions, the featured celebrity panelists would partake in a game with the other panelists.

Panelists

The panelists have included four different characters per episode. Among the known panelists on this show are:
