For all the talk about Trump killing political comedy, Full Frontal and Last Week Tonight both did a pretty good job poking at the administration, though they never made it the whole of their business. I don’t think it was ever about the context or the political climate for the Daily Show. Trevor Noah just never clicked. I occasionally tuned in after its slow start and it was always so cringey and stale. I don’t think much of the current batch of correspondents either.

Also, Trevor's stand-up is really great, and I guess I was always hoping that more of it would creep into The Daily Show over the years, but it clearly wasn't his outlet for that kind of stuff, so him going back to traveling and stand-up is probably a wise career move.

it took years before stewart got the hang of tds. noah's legs got taken out from under him with covid imo, plus dude loves standup so much. Im suprised he took a job behind a desk with how young he is and how much he still loved to tour. He had a great cast with him- Roy Wood is probably my favorite tds member since carrell and colbert were on together. His between the scenes videos of him first becoming famous and going to the met gala and naacp awards and stuff were incredibly endearing too. He'll do well, and im curious to see who steps up.

Covid hit 4 years 7 months into Noah's tenure By 4 years 7 months into Stewart's time (August 200 None of this is an argument against enjoying Noah (or for enjoying Stewart for that matter,) how popular something is should have zero impact on your enjoyment of it. It is however an argument that Stewart was much more relevant than Noah was, and the latter had plenty of time before Covid hit to make a dent. Edit: hey fellas. I'm pretty bad at basic math. 4 years 7 months would be August 2003, not 2004. I'm still standing by my overall argument (his show found its feet by the end of 2000, just under two years in) but man that was some shitposting. Oh well! pwn fucked around with this message at 22:35 on Sep 30, 2022 |

When Trump first ran Trevor Noah compared him to an African Dictator. This was at the same time that everyone else struggled to get a read on what was happening. John Oliver, in particular, basically ignored Trump and most of the 2016 race. John practically dismissed the chance of a Trump presidency entirely, and it felt like the writers rolled their eyes whenever they had to cover Trump briefly.

Are you kidding? Oliver on his show prayed for Trump to run, thinking about all the comedy that would come of it. He never actually thought he would win.

Political comedy has been in a bad place for many years now. No one wants to take a really bold or biting take for various reasons, most notably networks not wanting to start controversy. It’s a big reason why SNL has been so limp dick since Jim Downey left. It bleed into news media in general trying to “both sides” things and giving oxygen to insanity that in another time would either outright ignore or belittle. I really hope whomever they bring in to do TDS next has some fire and no fear in them. The format needs a shake up and someone needs to bring some sort of danger into the time slot again.

Cinema Speculation  quote:The long-awaited first work of nonfiction from the author of the #1 New York Times bestselling Once Upon a Time in Hollywood: a deliriously entertaining, wickedly intelligent cinema book as unique and creative as anything by Quentin Tarantino. Available from Amazon, but please consider paying a bit more and supporting independent bookstores; you can easily find local or regional shops by googling. If you do buy from Amazon, use the Smile link and donate a penny or whatever to charity.  Also available on audiobook CD, which I love (not enough to pay ~$40 for though.)

As we continue to prepare for the coming darkness, this week there will be dueling live election night shows to give something resembling comedy. Colbert is doing his usual live election night, and if you want to actually laugh, Kimmel is doing a live show for the first time in like 15 years or whenever ABC made him start pretaping. The down side is his lead guest is Bill loving Maher, sooooooo  NBC is preempting both Fallon and Seth on Tuesday. Thankfully, neither of them has this week's SNL host currently booked, hopefully it stays that way. They've also wisely not booked any SNL cast members. Corden is dark all week, hopefully we see Reggie re-join them when they come back; he was absent last week to be by his mum as she took ill and died on Wednesday. Schedule for the week starting 2022.11.07 Subject and likely to change Colbert Monday - John Oliver, People’s “Sexiest Man Alive” announcement, a performance by the cast of The Lion King Tuesday - LIVE SHOW; John Dickerson, Mike Birbiglia Wednesday - Bono takes The Colbert Questionert, Rose McIver Thursday - Emily Blunt, George Saunders Corden Repeats Kimmel Monday - Dana Carvey, Jonathan Majors, Musical Guest SoFaygo Tuesday - LIVE SHOW; Bill Maher, George Conway, Breland Wednesday - Jason Momoa, Luke Grimes, Lainey Wilson Thursday - Brian Tyree Henry, Lizzy Caplan, Young the Giant Fallon Monday - Ryan Reynolds, Jen Psaki, Smino Tuesday - PREEMPTED Wednesday - Octavia Spencer, Matthias Schweighöfer, Kurt Braunohler Thursday - Will Ferrell, Lindsay Lohan, The 1975 Friday - Sylvester Stallone, Linda Cardellini, Louis Tomlinson Seth Monday - Gayle King, Bobby Cannavale Tuesday - PREEMPTED Wednesday - Florence Pugh, Steve Kornacki Thursday - Tracy Morgan, James Acaster

And here we go, proper-like. The Boss is on Fallon tonight, as well as Tuesday and Wednesday, and on Thanksgiving too. I imagine he taped all his stuff tonight, he gets paid for four show but only has to show up one night, good gig (Colbert has done this a lot, most notably of late James Taylor, for whom I've lost track of how much content he banked for them. Granted, he DID do a proper residency over a week during the Summer, so he at least showed up multiple days). Thursday and Friday are still not booked for Fallon. Corden returns tonight, fun. Seth has Tarantino on Tuesday, Thursday show TBA. And Kimmel's got Billy Gibbons sitting in on Thursday with the Cletones. Great times! Schedule for the week starting 2022.11.14 Subject and likely to change Colbert Monday - Michelle Obama, Stromae Tuesday - Jon Stewart, LCD Soundsystem Wednesday - Michael Shannon, Tig Notaro Thursday - Michelle Williams, Winners of PICKLED Corden Monday - Emily Blunt, Jonathan Majors, Murray Bartlett Tuesday - Allison Janney, Joe Jonas, Pat Benatar and Neil Giraldo Wednesday - Idina Menzel, James Marsden, Beth Orton Thursday - Tracee Ellis Ross, Sosie Bacon, Erica Spera Kimmel Monday - Chris Hemsworth, Meghann Fahy, Måneskin Tuesday - Amy Adams and Maya Rudolph, Jenna Ortega, Bush Wednesday - Kumail Nanjiani, P!nk Thursday - Patrick Dempsey, Nicholas Hoult, The Backseat Lovers, Billy Gibbons sitting in with Cleto and the Cletones Fallon Monday - Bruce Springsteen, Chloë Grace Moretz Tuesday - Seth Rogen, Jeremy Pope, Bruce Springsteen Wednesday - Anya Taylor-Joy, Glen Powell, Patti Smith, Bruce Springsteen Thursday - TBA Friday - TBA Seth Monday - Chelsea Handler, Martin McDonagh Tuesday - Quentin Tarantino, Seth Reiss & Will Tracy Wednesday - John Leguizamo, Zoe Kazan, Paolo Nutini Thursday - TBA

Slightly short week, Fallon and Seth are doing Thanksgiving shows (late after the football game) but Colbert appears to be ending the week on Wednesday, as does Corden, and Kimmel's leaving early after Tuesday. Fallon's not doing a show on Friday, as is his tradition for that day. I kinda think most if not all of his Thursday show is already in the can; they showed footage of him and Jerry in a cold open this weekend in a promo, and we already know the Springsteen tune is banked from last Monday. Fallon's been doing the banking bit lately, the Thursday November 10 ep had a promo on that morning's TODAY with clips from both Lohan and Ferrell's segments, which meant that those interviews were already recorded. Seth has his family on for the annual Turkey day show (which is openly recorded earlier in the week.) And this won't mean poo poo to most of you probably but British artist David Shrigley will be on Kimmel Tuesday! Very surprised to see him on an 11:35 show, but glad he's there; I give ABC credit for listing his art book title uncensored in the listings: And that's it! Happy Thanksgiving! 🦃 Schedule for the week starting 2022.11.21 Subject and likely to change Colbert Monday - Daniel Craig, Josh Johnson Tuesday - Paul Dano, Cate Blanchett takes The Colbert Questionert, Holly Humberstone Wednesday - Jake Gyllenhaal, Elizabeth Debicki, Suprise Guests 🍗 - Rerun Corden Monday - Amy Adams, Maya Rudolph, Franz Ferdinand Tuesday - Thomas Lennon, Kirby Howell-Baptiste, Bazzi Wednesday - Linda Cardellini, Neal Brennan, Gianmarco Soresi 🌽 - Rerun Kimmel Monday - Carey Mulligan, Josh Groban, Angela Alvarez Tuesday - Kristen Bell, David Shrigley, Noah Kahan Wednesday - Rerun 🥧 - Rerun Fallon Monday - Tim Allen, Lacey Chabert, David McCormack and Melanie Zanetti, Brent Faiyaz Tuesday - Michael Strahan, F.
