    Who’s saying you should do that? More importantly who’s holding you to that impossible standard?

    Are you kidding? Welcome to fucking Wordforge, where you must answer for every single deed a person has ever done in their life if you so much as admit to laughing at them once. :brood:

    It’s settled. The next host of the daily show will be @Uncle Albert’s funny friend.

    Maybe they should try to give a right wing comedian a chance. I hear Greg Gutfeld is killing it over at fox.

    I felt bad for Trevor taking over that Daily show. Actrually a great standup with some good timing and what was a decent host. You are just going to always be in Stewart's shadow. You have to knock it out of the park with a bigger than just a comedy news show mentality to make a mark. I think either Colbert or Oliver have that push to go into the real world and make news while doing the show. However, neither of them have any reason to go backwards to the daily show at this point. Moth have great vehicles for their talent now.

    The Daily show might die considering the idea has been taken by Oliver to a different direction with the same real world interaction. The daily show was best when Stewart and colbert (and probably Oliver in a lot of contribution) were creating PACs and educating people on politics and issues with demonstrations and involvement. Trevor is funny but he just seems to do the show. The show needs some better correspondents too. Samantha Bee was also a big part of getting out there.

    You have people who do these things now on youtube. Maybe they should hire the Borat guy.

    Media Central is the Red Room now, apparently.

    No one do any math in here.

    I vote Craig Kilborn round two because that is the worst possible option, and I enjoy being wrong when I vote for things.
