I haz it taped.  I will be watching it with great interest.

I find it unbelievable that your politicians have shat, from a great height, on these heroes they've venerated since day one.

And that's all I'm going to say on that, lest we stray into politics.  Because you KNOW some arsewipe will disagree.

Most of the time, Stewart doesn't even bother pimping people's books or movies anymore, especially people like Huckabee who are some kind of celebrity outside of the book or movie they are promoting. He mentions them, which is really enough, then goes off on the issue of the day, or in the case of his comedian buddies, he and the guest just riff on something for 5 minutes.

I think the Onion News Network is doing a better job of parodying the news currently.

Maybe it is just the fact that Olivia Munn is incapable of acting, but TDS is just not as good this year.

The ads seem rather random, some days I get tons, others not at all. For the past couple of weeks I seem to get about one per show, rather than one between every segment. It may depend on whether you use the frontpage videos or the full-episode links. I think the full-episodes have more advertising.

The recent extended interviews with both the Jordanian ambassador to the UN (I forget his name) and Rand Paul were both really interesting I thought.

I miss this show - it's gone back to pure pay TV (probably because it was so popular on the alternate free-to-air station that had it) and the internet is unreliable because I don't live in the US. Sad, because it fit perfectly (along with The Colbert Report) after dinner (7.20pm local start).

You can watch it outside the US using a firefox addon called modify headers, if that helps

Not sure if you guys caught last nights show. But O'Rilly is pissed.

And now, there shall be a debate.

Quote
UPDATE: Jon Stewart has accepted Bill O'Reilly's challenge to debate Common's White House appearance, Fox News announced Friday. Stewart will debate O'Reilly on Monday's "O'Reilly Factor."

ORIGINAL STORY: Bill O'Reilly took exception to Jon Stewart's takedown of Fox News over President Obama's invitation of rapper Common to the White House--and he challenged his high-profile frenemy to come on his show and debate the matter.

I know O'Reilly has been on Daily Show a few times, but has Jon ever been on O'Reilly's show?  Doesn't he know that his mic is going to get cut as soon as he starts winning?

I seem to recall Colbert going on O'Reilly's show and mocking the shit out of him, though I'm not entirely sure he was aware he was being mocked at the time.

edit; and apparently he did go on at least once, in 2004.

Yeah, Stewart's been on the Factor before at least once. But really, the scary part is that O'Reilly is the sanest guy on FoxNews these days.

Doesn't O'Reilly always invite people on to his show the same way Colbert mockingly does?

The whole idea is to get them on home turf where you have the power and drill them. Stewart's done a pretty good job of avoiding the tricks O'Reilly might use to drive his point across.

I would have preferred to see him go on Hannity's show. As it is, ratings aside, it's utterly fucking pointless.

Edit: Having watched the O'Reilly bit I can see how it's going to go. O'Reilly has decided that Common's involvement with 'cop killers' makes him political poison, something that didn't seem to be cited by other critics of the move on Fox, but he's going to say that any reaction to the whole thing but condemning the Obamas is endorsing killing police officers. Stewart will point out that most of the Fox people weren't making that argument and engaged in massively hypocritical behaviour and O'Reilly will respond that he didn't say that and ask Stewart why he loves cop killers so much. Repeat until credits roll or someone's mic gets cut.

Stewart's review of the whole Common and the White House on FOXnews was perfect IMHO. Especially calling out Hannity's hypocrisy - though it does, as Mr. Stewart said, require no effort anymore. I am kind of surprised audiences to those shows have not become at least a bit more attentive...I mean they ARE still people.
