The Daily Show was great. Mr. Stewart showed how smart he really is |

and how Mr. Goldberg is really not! I love how these people hearken back to the old days when you could beat your wife in private, priests molested kids, and you could earn a decent living practicing back ally medicine.... I don't think Mr. Goldberg was ready for such a well constructed yet on the fly critique of his work and besides it was just going to be John Stewart. Well, Mr. Stewart wiped up that new (crappy) set with Mr. Goldberg....
edited for spelling...

2. He really took on Goldberg. |
|
He doesn't do it often, but Mr Stewart can take more than a few people out to the woodshed.
Goldberg was a good choice because he's kind of a dullard.

4. My favorite part, in summary/paraphrase |
|
Stewart: Let's talk about Streisand.
Goldberg: Streisand's politics are stupid.
Stewart: But what about Charley Daniels? His right-wing politics are also stupid.
Goldberg: Good point. Let's talk about gangsta rap.
Stewart: No. Let's stay with Streisand.

Is it just me or is the new set a bit too distracting? He looks like starship commander Jon Stewart rather than talk show host Jon Stewart?

7. Ya the new set is a little off.... |
|
....I think it's alright really, but the dead on camera angle for Jon's first segments is a little unsettling.....they need to bring back the couch too....more informal....

8. The table kinda works for stuff like tonight |
|
Where there was a genuine, interrogative interview the more informal table worked.
But when we start getting celebrities, that table is going to feel very wrong.
Get the couch back.

11. Judging by Jon's performance tonight |
|
Maybe they feel ready to start going after people more?
Who knows?

13. it seems that things have changed a bit since the new set |
|
all this week jon has offered more serious discussion and counterpoint with his guests, who so far have all been authors.
i think they recognised the podium they have and have decided to use it in a more serious manner while at the same time cracking jokes.
