Don't forget, Clarke on the Daily Show tonight!!!

[Melodybe]

Man, I am so excited. Tape it folks, this one is important.

[Doctor Pedantic]

1. Did you see last night's?

People in the audience were pretty mad that Jennifer Beals was the guest instead of Clarke, who was supposed to be on.

Stewart's coverage of this has been great. Maybe it's just because Clarke is coming on the show, but Stewart has been very pro-Clarke --especially in light of Clarke's stellar, 30-year record of service.

Tonight should be a great one.

[Jane Austin]

5. He hasn't been so pro-Clarke

as he has been anti-idiot.

That's his strong suit, and in this case, it's the same thing. :)

15. Robert Novak: Douchebag for Liberty!

oh man i was in tears. the look on stewart's face was so priceless....stunned disbelief at the absolute ridiculousness of novak intimating that clarke is a racist.

7. The Daily Show is great, although I have only seen it a few times, but

should Clarke agree to be on a comedy show? What Clarke is doing for America is very noble and serious, and to me appearing on the Daily Show takes some of the seriousness away from it. Or am I wrong?

8. Sadly,

The Daily Show is the most serious news show out there. It has a cult following among the 18-24 demographic, as well as the intelligent non-sheep demographic.

[Bread and Circus]

12. Giovanni scores !!

9. TDS gets higher ratings that the cable news shows...so he will reach

a wider audience! (During the primaries, TDS had 20% higher ratings that O'Reilly, and he's the top rated show on cable!)

[Jane Austin]

11. You're wrong!

Happily enough, everybody serious (can you BE more serious than Richard Perle?) goes on the Daily Show.

[NightOwwl]

13. Daily show

The show has won 2 Emmys and Jon Stewart was recently on the cover of Newsweek. It was a great article. Daily Show may have started out as pure comedy, but it is now touted as one of the smartest political shows on the air. Jon Stewart is a genius. If you get a chance, I highly recommend you tune in whenever possible.

You can watch clips from the show at www.thedailyshow.com. The video titled "Belittle Richard" will tell you all you need to know about the style of the show.

17. It's the only news we can trust!

For real! :crazy:

IIRC the Daily Show is one of the highest rated shows on Comedy Central. A lot of people my age who are apolitical watch it because it's so hilarious and end up getting information they wouldn't see anywhere else on tv. Then they want more, and decide to get involved.

Don't underestimate the Daily Show, it's one of the best weapons we've got against Repuke lies.

When you are having a bad day this is instant relief!!

[Waverley_Hills_Hiker]

16. Is it on at 7:00 AND 11:00 EST?

Im a bit confused by Comedy Centrals schedule...it shows the Daily Show on twice, but the Daily Show website says 11:00 PM EST (past my bedttime).

[Vickers]

18. It's actually on THREE times a day

:crazy::crazy::crazy::crazy::crazy:

It's on at:

10:00 AM - previous night's show

7:00 PM - also the previous night's show

11:00 PM - the show

Some days I watch ALL THREE!!!!!

[Chovexani]

19. Here's how it works

Fresh episodes run at 11p EST. Reruns of the previous night's episode run at 7p EST the next day.

That's so you can watch it if 11p is past your bedtime. :)

20. I hope the opening segment

is at least half as good as last night's. I was tearing up... "A Douchebag for Liberty"

[Catherine Vincent]

22. Jennifer Beales was the guest and not Clarke.

Is he on tomorrow?

[Renew Deal]

23. The new Daily Show aires at 11:00 pm EST

Jennifer Beales was yesterdays show.
