"The Colbert Report" Premieres in Canada tonight!
Most likely in the major cities, not really sure.

Just remember, he IS spoofing cable TV "news" blowhards like Bill O'Liely, he's not really a jerk.
Congrats Canada!

1. Colbert Report is top notch
Sometimes very subtle but worth tuning in.

2. Thanks for the reminder!
It's on the Comedy Channel, just after TDS.

CTV also carries TDS, not sure if TCR will follow that.

3. It's nationwide
At 11:30 pm ET on Comedy Network, and 12:35 a.m. local time coast to coast on CTV stations. And he has a special welcome for Canadians tonight, too.

4. I can't help but think the petition to bring him to Canadian cable
had an effect! I am so looking forward to watching him after reading previous posts about his show, it sounds hilarious.

6. I bet it did help. Must be nice to have a government that...
...listens to "the people." It so 1990's.

Maybe someday we'll get our vote count back. Too bad you folks don't have a bigger Army so you could "help us out" here. *wink* ;-)

You think England and/or Ireland will get his show soon? Would they "get" satire over there?

7. Oh yes, both would get the satire immediately!
Their comedies are ripe with satire, they would love it, I have no doubt.

I have every confidence you will get your vote count back, the bush cabal is imploding due to it's arrogance, imo. It might take a bit more time but they are going DOWN!

I'm glad the DVR can simultaneously record on 2 different channels!
