I love Taylor, but I can’t get through a segment on After Midnight.

Hopefully it’s just new show awkwardness and they work out the kinks.

I'm not sure who saw the original and thought "This should longer, later and have stricter S&P"

It kind of feels like the American Whose Line where Drew Carey wanting to participate more rather than just hosting messed with the rhythm.

Renee needs to just go on Late Night every few months to update Seth on all the poo poo she’s done and what’s new in queer zoomer culture, they have such inexplicable chemistry.

edit: he’s like at the exact midpoint between fun uncle and relatable therapist and she delights in making him say dumb zoomer poo poo, truly an iconic combination

I've actually been a bit surprised about the lack of @midnight censorship. I mean it ain't Comedy Central but they've gotten away with a few jokes I thought for sure wouldn't make it in.

But turning it into a 40 minute show is DIRE. 20 minutes is light, breezy, "throw it on while I dick around at work" energy. 40 minutes is a goddamn slog, even with the best host and comedians you could imagine.

I think a 40 minute After Midnight could work if it was split between the game show and a more traditional panel on a couch chat show, but yeah this format is not great as-is.

I think a 45 minute (with commercials) version would be the sweet spot.

I adore Taylor Tomlinson so much so I hope this show works out, but it can definetly use some fine tuning.

Comedian Jon Stewart is returning to The Daily Show after a nine-year absence, to lead the satirical news program through the 2024 US presidential election cycle.

Starting Feb. 12, Stewart will host the Comedy Central program every Monday night with a rotating lineup of performers anchoring the rest of the week, the network said in a statement Wednesday. Stewart will also serve as an executive producer.

So I've only watched maybe half the posted clips of After Midnight, and generally agree with the thread and haven't posted because I had nothing to really add. But I just wanted to say the Marcella, Lisa and Guy clips from (I think?) last night were actually really fun. The three of them had great chemistry.

What a loving nothing-burger of a controversy too. Headlines and media circus were out in full force. I thought maybe he had done something like Aziz Ansari - evidence of a very sketchy maybe non-consensual sex life.

But nope! He just... embellished stories in his STAND UP COMEDY.

I'm hoping things with Stew-Beef work out, and I would have been happier still with Roy Wood Jr. But still. drat.

Hey stupid, read the details. He falsely accused his prom date of having a racist family, used her photo in his act and got death threats sent to her. That’s not his only incident of reckless poo poo, and that’s not mentioning the obvious poo poo that “They sent anthrax in my mail for speaking truth to power” is not the same thing as “My wife gives me no respect.” He also cast out staffers who urged him to be more factually accurate in his act.

I’m looking forward to watching that one because Lisa Gilroy fascinates me because I don’t know how her brain works. She’s amazing.

Also I don’t really know why they renamed the show from @midnight and even less so why they still kept the @ in the logo, so I’ve decided I’ll simply refer to it as Atfer Midnight as a compromise.

@midnight is not fun to search for, or put in file names, so I approve of the name change.

Edit: also confusion with the old show. And that it's not @ midnight, it's @ 12:37:30. That is to say, it's... after midnight

Huh.

When that whole thing went down and eventually he was officially out of the running for TDS, I had the thought, "oh poo poo, what if the story was a plant? Like maybe CC didn't like how much Hasan was asking to take the job and they wanted a way out of it without looking bad. These Manhattan liberals all run in the same circles, it wouldn't be hard to ask your buddy who's an editor at the New Yorker to have an underling have another underling go digging, at the least you can take away some leverage and at best you'll be able to wash your hands of him altogether and keep looking for someone more desperate." Then I realised this is the same poo poo that fans of someone always say when that someone gets caught, lord knows, and I (rightly) shelved the notion. Even if the theory was true, the story is still the story, however it was borne.

But the story wasn't the story. The New Yorker ignored what didn't fit, including stacks of receipts, and made it sound like Minhaj was a serial liar. Now I've no idea what the editorship of the New Yorker is like, beyond the bits I've seen of David Remnick on Seth.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HKXpYHi34-w

So as much as it may be an insidious smear job blah blah blah, it could just as well be a much simpler explanation: Chasing clicks and some of that street cred. Sucks but what are you gonna do. That CC probably had to back up a dump truck filled with money to get Stewpot back once a week also undermines the conspiracy theory. Of course it's very possible that paying Stewart for a year pales to how much more Minhaj would have cost than Kal Penn :pwn:

But the main takeaway is that Hasan isn't a psycho. And we lost out on a great Daily Show host because of this dumb poo poo

I don’t even particularly like Hasan Minaj and didn’t want him to host TDS but that New Yorker article was clearly some bullshit and the emails he presents in the video he posted make it pretty clear that someone had an idea for a story and ignored a bunch of facts while writing it that didn’t fit that story. He got a raw deal. I don’t think it was some big conspiracy or anything, just a bad piece of journalism.

Like the fact alone that he *didn’t* lie about the prom invite racism and has receipts should be enough to put the rest of what was written there in question.
