I am a long-time Colbert fan. I too like his show more now than the Daily Show, although I love that one too.
I don't, however, love him enough that I would take hours morphing his green-screen light-saber footage into an actual scene. Nor would I volunteer to go on a rescue mission to save Stephen, Jr. But he's awesome to watch, obviously quick witted and very bright, and the BKAD interviews are amazing. And that, my friends, is truthy.

That was a classic interview. My favorite line, "Do you see why they don't let you vote now?" That is the best segment on the best show on television. |

I had a chance to see John Stewart live back in 2001. I have been a HUGE fan since...with that said, though I still enjoy his show and watch most of his shows, I like Colbert just a little bit more right now. Maybe its the new-ness of the program or whatever, but his show is terrific and very enjoyable.
With that said, Stewart is the standard bearer and that is one terrific hour on Comedy Central. |

It's not that I disagree with him politically that bothers me. It's that he's trading away at times his humor for just being yet another partisan voice in the fray, and that he manipulates his situation according to his rules, his show, and his audience and later throws up his hands and says, "what, you take my show seriously? It's just comedy man!" it's just getting mildly annoying. But I still like the show a lot and agree that it's the best hour of comedy television on any channel right now. I really like the new british guy who does the special pieces, can't recall his name right now.
