He's really changed The Daily Show. It's halfway serious now. I tuned in for the first time in a while, and he had some political author on instead of an entertainer, and I thought "What the hell?" It was a pretty somber interview, very little of the funny.
I liked Craig Kilborn because he looks and acts like a tv anchor, and the humor was so mean-spirited. But he wasn't that great of an interviewer. He was ok. Jon Stewart's a great interviewer, but doesn't look or deliver the fake news like a tv anchor. |

He's funny. A liberal, but funny.

Stewart leans to the left but the show takes shots at EVERYBODY, and I like that. They also parody the mass media well enough to make it look like the 3 ring circus it is.
Steven Kober cracks me up as well. My favorite line from the show so far is when he was interviewing some PR person from the National Organization of Women and asked her straight to her face, If you're so good at being a so-called "lesbian", then how come you're turning me on? The look on her face, I'll take it with me to my grave!!! [lol] |

Letterman rocks!!! Just yesterday he threw 35gallons of superballs off a 10 story building!
Where else will you find entertainment like that!?!? Letterman & Wal*Mart are leaders in their markets!! Sgtar15 |

He is a very funny guy. But, he is a flaming liberal. He is clearly biased against anything from the right.
He tries to hide it a bit, but isn't successful. Watch him for an entire week and you'll catch it. Don't get me wrong. I think comedy should parody the establishment. But it should parody and insult BOTH political sides. he does not. |

Jimmy, watch it for a week and you'll see they DO take shots at everyone. Sometimes they attack the right more than the left, but they do show the ludicrous idiocy from both sides.
And there is plenty to go around, I'm sure you'll agree, from the left AND the right. |

Quoted: He's really changed The Daily Show. It's halfway serious now. I tuned in for the first time in a while, and he had some political author on instead of an entertainer, and I thought "What the hell?" It was a pretty somber interview, very little of the funny. I liked Craig Kilborn because he looks and acts like a tv anchor, and the humor was so mean-spirited. But he wasn't that great of an interviewer. He was ok. Jon Stewart's a great interviewer, but doesn't look or deliver the fake news like a tv anchor. I agree is more serious than CK. However, as you pointed out, the show has been bringing in more serious-type guests. Lately, there have been no brainless actors for the lame 20-questions bit. I think Stewart can do either bit exceptionally: serious and funny (but not good at mean-funny). It all depends on where the producers orientate the program. As far as the politcal prority of the program and Stewart: I think they are pretty open minded. Much of the war based "reporting" I found to be more right-sided. |

After the "snipers wanted" bit he did on Bush during the 2000 campaign, I will never watch his show.
