While her style is grounded in solid reporting, she’s not afraid to engage in political debates on sensitive issues like chronic illness management, maternity insurance coverage, and health law reform.
The question now is how these two on-screen personalities—Gutfeld with his flair for humor, and Smith with her direct and poised approach—will work together in this new format.
Some fans are excited by the idea of Gutfeld and Smith’s chemistry. “Gutfeld’s humor is hilarious, but it sometimes feels like it needs someone to anchor it,” one viewer tweeted. “Sandra Smith brings that stability and sharpness, and I think they could balance each other really well.”
Others, however, worry that the two could clash on air. “Sandra is much more serious and analytical. Gutfeld’s humor is unpredictable.
This could either be a refreshing dynamic or a disaster,” another fan commented. The success of the pairing will largely depend on how these differences in style are managed—and whether the audience is willing to embrace a more balanced approach to The Five.
