On the other hand, the offhanded Tupac question was hilarious.

Wilmore's response to the twitter question was pretty weak tea. He dodged the substance of it. My mom told me flat out she'd help me hide the body. Guess I know who loves their kids more.

Wow. After the "PC" episode, I think I'm done with the Nightly Show. Sorry, Larry, I gave it my best shot, but that was loathesome. Also, I don't think he understood why "Gyp" was on the list of offensive words.

I do hope that they continue the rivalry. Sure, they buried the hatchet, but he can always write that off as Stephen Colbert the pundit settling things with Fallon. Stephen Colbert the late night talk show host still thinks that he is human garbage that must be destroyed!

raditts posted:Does anyone even watch talk shows for the interviews anymore? Unless it's someone really interesting or if it was a Craig Ferguson interview, I almost always skip them or switch the show off early. It's especially painful with that blubbering idiot that took over for Ferguson who tries to ape Graham Norton. God, Ferguson was a fantastic interviewer. He would get these people who you might consider C-Grade celebrities and reality stars and you would look forward to them becoming regulars because they just hit it off. EDIT: Ariel Tweto is still adorable.

I have a feeling that this episode is going to get uncomfortable. It's an episode from 1999 with Mo Rocca interviewing a transwoman. I'm sure it will be perfectly sensitive.

In case you want to ballpark when your favorite episodes/eras are, here's some help. With the web commercials in, every episode is 24 minutes. The Daily Show is on 42 weeks a year, four days a week, working out to about 168 episodes That means each year will take 67.2 hours or 2 days and 19.2 hours. So if you want to watch Indecision 2000 in the Month of Zen, that's a little under three days from now.

While I don't like Mo Rocca, I have to admit, seeing him slowly press a mic into the face of a man that may or may not have been John Bolton, distorting the bastard's face without him paying any attention to Rocca, was pretty drat funny. Especially because it only stopped when someone batted him away with another mic. It's like Maybe-Bolton didn't even feel it.

Lumberjack Bonanza posted:I like to believe his legacy of slimy dickishness will make it into the history books. Maybe after our civilizations crumble and human culture lies buried, another species will unearth his tomb, the Mausoleum of the Motherfucker. What did he ever really affect on the national scale? He never even had much influence, or any real followers. Maybe he will get a mention as a the most prominent face of the Birther movement, when we look back on the uglier parts of the Obama presidency. Ultimately, for all his bluster, he will be at most a footnote, an also-ran in the primaries and an opportunistic hatemonger.

The jokes about the Republican Convention 2000 Special Edition Barbie are deeply depressing. Edit: The movie reviews are the least pleasant part of these old episodes, next to the occasional chingchongdingdong bits of racism.
