I think this will be really funny. I remember they used to run the fake ads for it, I guess they are doing it for real now.

I will never quit watching Dave, but CC is clearly going to be the place to be for the best late night viewing.
On the one hand, all the Daily Show people are great, but they don't make a lot of money, so you want them do well and move on to movies and tv, but you hate losing them.
Samantha Bee will get snatched up soon and I don't want her to go.

Sounds good, hopefully they do the smart thing and pair this with the Daily Show.
I hope he takes "This Week in God" over with him. That segment is too good to just throw away or hand off to somebody else.

The extra workload means he'll sharply curtail appearances on "The Daily Show," he said.

It's French, BITCH!
"Condoleeza Rice, you have the final word. Oh wait a minute, you're a moron."
As an aside, his bit about Bush and the two stallions the other night was the first time in as long as I can remember that I was worried about food coming out my nose from laughter...

Oh man I can't wait for this. Ever since seeing those fake commercials I thought they could actually make a show out of the idea. Glad to see they agreed with me.

Wasn't Lewis Black around before the show came to be?

He was around. Wrote some off Broadway plays and stuff. I don't think he became big till the Daily Show.
Bill Murray was around before SNL too, just not well known.

Colbert was on tonight's episode, by the way -- he reported live from London. And Monday he did the piece on Laura Bush's comedy routine at the White House Correspondent's dinner.
