Overnight viewing figures indicated that the first edition of
Piers Morgan Uncensored was watched by 317,000 viewers. The next week's Monday edition, aired on 2 May 2022, fell further, with an average audience of 62,000. Morgan's YouTube channel's show episodes reported around 10,000 views. On 8 August 2022, the
Daily Telegraph reported that
Piers Morgan Uncensored attracted an average audience of 33,900 for the edition broadcast on 28 July. On 20 April 2023,
Piers Morgan Uncensoreds YouTube channel reached one million subscribers. The programme's YouTube channel reached two million subscribers in November 2023, prompting TalkTV to claim the programme had "the world's fastest-growing current affairs Youtube channel". At the time of Morgan's departure from TalkTV, his YouTube channel had 2.3 million subscribers. In January 2023, Morgan attracted criticism on social media following a conversation with
Tina Brown in which the pair criticised
Prince Harry's memoir,
Spare, and after Morgan also threw a copy of the book in the bin while on air. Many viewers commented how they had had enough of the coverage. Morgan faced criticism after comments made on the 18 January 2023 edition of his show about
Madonna ahead of
the Celebration Tour, her 40th anniversary world tour. Morgan criticised the singer for "the whole trying to be a
sex kitten thing when you're in your sixties" and suggested she should be "put out to pasture". An edition of
Piers Morgan Uncensored featuring an interview with Prime Minister
Rishi Sunak, which aired on 5 February 2024, attracted criticism after Sunak accepted a £1,000 bet from Morgan over the possible outcome of the UK government's
Rwanda asylum plan. In October 2024,
Piers Morgan Uncensored received backlash after airing claims, which were subsequently shown to be false, made by
Jaguar Wright about
Jay-Z and
Beyoncé on his show, after he asked her about
Sean Combs's arrest. The incident sparked significant media attention and led to a viral apology by Morgan, as well as to discussions about the responsibilities of talk-show hosts in verifying guests' statements. In May 2025, during an episode featuring Pakistan’s former foreign minister
Hina Rabbani Khar, Pakistani podcaster Shehzad Ghias Shaikh, Indian journalist
Barkha Dutt, and Indian influencer Ranveer Allahbadia (aka BeerBiceps), the show faced criticism from Pakistani media for poor moderation, nationalist bias, and devolving into theatrics. Furthermore, Morgan, who labeled the
Pakistan ISI as the worst intelligence agency, was criticised for failing to challenge "inflammatory" claims made by Dutt and Allahbadia, when the latter displayed the photo of
Osama bin Laden and stated how Pakistan were hiding him after he was
killed by
US Navy SEAL Team. In December 2025, an interview with far-right political commentator
Nick Fuentes sparked controversy and media scrutiny. During the segment, Piers questioned Fuentes on his
antisemitic views, the
Holocaust, and his opinions on
Adolf Hitler. The interview generated attention when Fuentes remarked that Hitler was "fucking cool," leading to an immediate and strong rebuke from Morgan. Beyond the political and historical controversy, a separate moment from the interview, where Fuentes—who identifies as a "virgin"—was pressed by Morgan about his personal life, also went viral. The broadcast drew sharp debate regarding the ethics of providing a platform to Fuentes, despite the resulting high-engagement and provocative content. ==Awards==
