Afro: May 29, 2007; Mother Earth is pregnant for the third time
For y'all have knocked her up
I have tasted the maggots in the mind of the universe
I was not offended
For I knew I had to rise above it all
Or drown in my own shit

I liked it. I don't mind the panel format, though maybe not for 2/3 of the show. With the right mix of comedians and more serious guests it has the potential to be interesting and funny. Keep it 100 was interesting too but I'd be worried about it scaring away some guests.

But hey it's the first show and I doubt every show will be all panel discussion.

Really liking the Nightly Show so far, but I'm getting a little uncomfortable with their correspondents looking directly at the camera during those segments. I'm not sure whether the camera is too close, or there's a mental-disconnect between the shots of them looking at Larry and looking at us. Those bits definitely need to be tweaked.

Yeah I agree with this. I'd much prefer if they just aired it as an interview rather than the correspondent talking to you.

This ain't the Colbert thread anymore, but Stephen almost slips back into character in this video and it's amazing.

I get the impression that the app the guest was plugging was basically designed for creepy Nice Guys.

Has the internet made me too cynical?

Creepy nice guys harass women unprovoked on okcupid/tinder/etc. This app doesn't afford them that opportunity unless someone shows interest in them first.

Maybe Jessica is out filming a field piece.

Michael Straham and Noah seemed to get along really well and now I want to watch a buddy cop movie starring them.

Yeah I really like Strahan, even as a Cowboys fan.
