The Daily Show
Colbert Report
No contest. Colbert. The Daily Show went downhill after he left. I only really watch it to see the end-of-show toss to Stephen. I also like how the Report is more in touch with the alternative media, like the Internet. I'm pretty sure Colbert is a lot more popular with people that frequent message boards and stuff.
I must recuse myself.
Take care all.
His command of the Colbert Nation is both awe inspiring and terrifying at the same time.Originally Posted by Yamaneko
I pick Jon Stewart, though it is very close. They are both hilarious.
The Report.
1) The t is silent. It doesn't get much cooler than that.
2) I've only seen it once but that one time destroyed my opinion of The Daily Show. I agree with what Martyr was saying about Stephen being insanely quick.
3)Stephen has an ice cream named after him. I mean, come on.

Isn't it a tad difficult to judge the speed of delivery on a scripted television show?
You're very nice. And if you want to be very VERY nice, you'll add a "both" option for me. <3
I have a Stephen Colbert Mii but I don't know where it came from.
I like 'em both fairly the same.
Signature by rubah. I think.
Haha, yes. Like how he got his Colbert army to vote 17+ million times to name that Hungarian bridge after him. And when he told people to throw GM annual reports onto the ice at a high school hockey game, they actually did it.His command of the Colbert Nation is both awe inspiring and terrifying at the same time.
Colbert Report. Since I am noting but American!
Not too hard to judge when there's an interview going on. And if you think the interview's are scripted... Well, I don't think they are for various reasons.
In fact, I'm positive that they aren't.
Parts of the interview are, but the majority of it is Stephen.
In essence, the pre-interview, before the show, Stephen will meet the guest and chat him or her up for a few moments and also tell them not to take him too seriously and if he offends them.. tough.
It should also be pointed out: Jon is an Exec Producer of The Colbert Report, so a lot of what goes on in that show stems from Jon as much as from Stephen.
Take care all.
Daily Show. I find the Colbert Report annoying at times. If given a choice between these and any other show I watch though, I'd take the other show. I have to be in the right mood to enjoy the Daily Show.
I don't know. I have nothing against Jon Stewart, it's just I much rather watch parody humor than straight out political humor. Stephen is a character. Jon delivers punch lines.
Does anybody have a link to all the bad iraq war analogies that they used on the latest daily show? Especially the last one for "moment of zen" something about mowing lawns
Mods hate me because they know they'll never be as cooll as me!
