"When your gross domestic product is only a couple billion more than the box office total for Avatar, you can't afford a lawsuit from Philip Morris International."

2. The scary thing is what they do to tiny countries like Togo.

3. It was an amazing show!

aside: LWT is a *full* 25 min of everything that was good about the Daily Show and nothing bad: (1) commercials, (2) guests, and (3) censors. Oliver is no fool. The Daily Show is second rate by comparison.

4. He seems like the obvious choice to replace Jon Stewart.

Does he not?

6. Yeah but I hope Last Week Tonight doesn't go away.

Love this show and I am sure John Oliver loves to be able to say whatever he wants to.

7. I'm selfish...like John Oliver where he is. I'd like to see John Fugelsang.

ONLY IN AMERICA CAN YOU BE PRO-DEATH PENALTY, PRO-WAR, PRO-UNMANNED DRONE BOMBS, PRO-NUCLEAR WEAPONS, PRO-GUNS, PRO-TORTURE, PRO-LAND MINES AND STILL CALL YOURSELF 'PRO-LIFE'. - John Fugelsang

His caps, not mine.
