“Guess Who’s Coming to Denver?”: Man, I wish it were the Democratic National conference all day, every day considering it seems like it’s providing endless, wondrous fabric for the show. Not only did they prepare me spend a good three minutes just laughing at Jon’s crazy eyes while reacting to…

“Guess Who’s Coming to Denver?”: The Daily Show is back! They’ll be in Denver for the whole Democratic National Convention, workin’ their shiny new set. It’s pretty much just Jon’s “j” desk and a whole lot of big screens hanging in the back. The gang was in full style, and I believe that was t…

America’s terrorist watch list just hit the 1,000,000 mark. Yay! Sort of. Not really. Jon pointed out that Nelson Mandela was only recently removed from the watch list. He said it in a way like Mandela had no commerce being on the watch list on the first place, which I thought was a bit unfair…

Has it really been two weeks? I hope you all have been coping better than I have. There were a lot of night terrors and folded McCain jokes along the way, as I coped with my withdrawal. Well, Jon Stewart (and Stephen Colbert) are back and, while they didn’t talk about everything I expected the…

“Best Damn Sports Hearing Period”: Once again proving that America has its priorities in order, Roger Clemens was taken to a hearing on the Hill. Yeah, considering what that country needs the most is some clarification on steroid use in professional sports. Most of the jokes were directed towards …

Wednesday marked the return of both “The” and the Daily Show (and Colbert Report) writers! Whoo! Whoo! The strike shows have been marked by visible host exhaustion, wacky clock-gobblers (heh) in the mold of elaborate feuds, and lots of John Oliver. certain, the change in pace and style was sort of…

“Indecision 2008″: Mitt Romney surprised his supporters when he announced that he was withdrawing from the race. Romney next proceeded to surprise the rest of the country when he explained his reasons. Apparently, he doesn’t want to detract from the Republican force, considering a Democratic victory…

“Indecision 2008″: Did you know Super Tuesday was on Tuesday? The media did a poor job of making us think that the five to six hours main up the results were “fascinating”. They didn’t help their point by hurling numbers every which way. As whether to add to the confusion, the news teams goofed arou…

Occasionally, I will watch a particularly crazy episode of The Daily Show or The Colbert Report and sit through the credits feeling very angry with myself. “I had nothing to do nowadays,” I often think. “I could have jumped onto a bus and gone to a taping to get a piece of that awesomeness.” Well, I…

Everyone knows that CNN can be a bit of a sensory overload, particularly with its fancy new floating pie charts and whatnot. The flashiness took a huge jump when Situation Room first came around and showed off its needlessly many screens. At least some fun finally came of it, in the style of a total…

In case you missed it, Jon made a very special appearance on The Colbert Report Tuesday night. The situation is already a bit confusing, and Jon’s explanation of it didn’t help much. Actually, don’t even think about it too much. Just focus on the fact that Jon is a very tiny man. What he lacks in he…

Jon started off by pointing out that the other night’s guest, Phil Simms, called him “Tom” at the end of their interview. I could have sworn he called him “Josh”, but I thought I was just hearing things. I propose that Jon relieve the cutting pain of having an idol screw up one’s name by convincing …

“Indecision 2008″: The first news to note was Barack Obama’s landslide victory in South Carolina. Of course, the win did not go unnoticed by the haters, specifically Bill Clinton. I was surprised that strange little pocket Clinton thing actually worked, too! Yay for successful gags. As for the Obama…

“Indecision 2008″: Daily Show normally focuses its mockery upon the political figures in the news, but when Jon starts riffing on the pundits and mass media, spectacular things happen. that night, Jon took on the media’s exaggerations of Mitt Romney and Bill Clinton’s so-called outbursts. Apparently…

First of all, I was surprised that there was absolutely no mention of Fred Thompson dropping out of the race. I’m pretty certain the news broke well before the show started taping, and it’s not like they didn’t have the moment to, you know, write it into the script. Secondly, the Dow plummeted and B…

Jon kicked off the episode by running a few rounds of paper football. Not that I’m a big paper sports enthusiast, but I couldn’t help but notice that he wasn’t holding the football fairly right. Jon, your story just doesn’t add up. He next flubbed a gag with a toy robot, which was pretty precious, e…

“Bush’s Bucket List”: President Bush, in his final year in office, has been continuing to do things that he should have done fairly a enlarged moment ago. He additionally had an interview with Nightline’s Terry Moran, which had its fair share of strange moments.

“10 Suckin’ Years”: It’s been ten …
