Unfortunately, i'm only able to watch it every once in a while (since I'm from Germany) and I've never seen the Colbert Report but the snippets I've seen are all hilarious. I've also looked through various clips on youtube and I cracked up every time.

Funny, handsome, smart.....and on the right political wing.

You have top like 'em.

P.S.: Colbert's roast of Bush at the White House correspondants dinner was pretty nice and daring, don't you think?

We love the Daily Show. (See quotes in my sig line.)

The show is on Mon - Thurs on the Comedy Channel, of all things.

Jon Stewart is brilliant.

Neither is brilliant or funny.

But their writers are amusing.

Jon Stewart is one of the writers, Dran. But you're entitled to your opinion, of course, though others may view it differently.

The Daily Show
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Daily Show (currently The Daily Show with Jon Stewart) is a Peabody- and Emmy-winning half-hour satirical news program produced by and run on the Comedy Central cable television network in the United States. The show premiered on Monday, July 22, 1996, and was hosted by Craig Kilborn, who acted as an anchorman. In 1999, Kilborn left the show and was replaced by Jon Stewart. Providing news-related comedy in the tradition of Saturday Night Live's "Weekend Update" segment, Michael Moore's TV Nation, BBC's Not the Nine O'Clock News, and the long-running Canadian series This Hour Has 22 Minutes, The Daily Show reports on the foibles and hypocrisy of the real world with a satirical edge. The show has also developed a reputation as one of the sharpest political commentary shows on American TV.

In addition to news stories, The Daily Show includes interviews with celebrities, semi-celebrities, authors, and political figures. The political interviews have featured many prominent guests such as U.S. Presidents Jimmy Carter & Bill Clinton; U.S. Vice President Al Gore; U.S. Secretaries of State Madeleine Albright & Colin Powell; U.S. Senators Hillary Clinton, Tom Daschle, Bob Dole, John Edwards, Russ Feingold, Ted Kennedy, John Kerry, John McCain, Barack Obama & Rick Santorum, DNC Chairman Howard Dean, RNC Chairmen Ed Gillespie & Ken Mehlman; CIA Directors George Tenet & James Woolsey; Secretary of Defense William Cohen; and author Kurt Vonnegut.

And Colbert writes, I read somewhere, but can't be credited as writer due to some screen writer's guild conflict thingy.

But yeah, they both got a humongous team of other writers on the staff too. people often forget that the hard work of comedy is done quietly with notebooks, keyboards and huge mugs of coffee.

Reminds me of two of the earliest commercials for his run of the Daily Show.

John Stewart: "This is John Stewart and you are watching..." *stands up, pivots a hip* "my ass!"

Gillian Anderson (whilst sitting in John Stewart's lap behind the Daily Show desk): "You're watching the Daily Show and I have the best seat in the house."

I try to watch both shows every night. I find them both to be brilliant and funny...especial Colbert's biting sarcasm (parodying the scumbag Bill O'Reilly...Papa Bear...ROTFLMAO). Despite my enjoyment, I can definitely see how it wouldn't be everyone's cup of tea. To me, that's the essence of comedy. If it's vanilla enough to be funny to everyone, it's not something I'm interested in. Both of those shows are edgy and subject to criticism for mixing news and comedy. I think they do it perfectly.

BTW, John Stewart's barbequing of the two nimrods on CNN's Crossfire is one of the best TV segments ever. If you haven't seen it, he goes completely serious and buries both of them (shocking them because they're expecting a comedian).

I haven't seen that much of Stephen Colbert ... but Jon Stewart is absolutely brilliant. I just saw this on you tube:
