1. Wow@ShitStarters.

One of his best New Rules.

[Rhiannon12866]

2. I agree, his recent New Rules have been right on the mark and this one is no exception

But this one from a month ago is still my favorite, and it also showed off his comic talent for voices:

New Rule: Liberal States' Rights

Bill takes a stand against the "outside agitators" who wants to interfere with California's progressive agenda.

3. Thank you!

I still think this is one of the best, hard-hitting liberal talk shows out there.

[Rhiannon12866]

4. I agree! I'm bummed out when he's not on - which is far too often

I hadn't heard of everyone who appeared tonight, but I wasn't disappointed, they were all very good.

5. Where has Seth been, btw?

I have been trying to look him up and can't find anything. I am having withdrawal.

[Rhiannon12866]

6. Both Seth and Stephen Colbert have had repeats all week

And they're not all that old, either. I looked up the ones tonight and they were from September 27th and 29th.

7. Oh, thanks! I miss them!

Well, have a good weekend! Hopefully they will be back next week!

[Rhiannon12866]

8. I just checked and they're both new shows on Monday

The thing is, the ridiculous and insane news changes so rapidly these days that they can miss the latest just by taping shows earlier in the day...

[smirkymonkey]

9. Thank you for checking! Can't wait to see the new shows!

This was such a crazy week, I was just dying for their take on it. If we don't laugh about it, we'll cry.

[Rhiannon12866]

10. I'm looking forward to it, too!

Late night comedians always joked about the president, but these guys are serious - and speaking out in terms we've never heard before. And I agree, they make things just a little more tolerable, knowing that we're hardly alone feeling as we do...

11. Funny guy -- batting 1000

12. K & R

[Rhiannon12866]

13. Thanks! And I can't help noticing that even the token "conservatives" they've had on are anti Trump

14. Indeedy.

Just wish the ones voting had the courage.
