'Daily Show' Auctioning Off Old Set
LOS ANGELES (Zap2it.com) "The Daily Show" didn't win many raves when it unveiled its new set over the summer. Now, those longing for the old desk-and-couch set from the show's earlier days can partially re-create it, Kramer-style, in their own homes.

Provided, you know, they have room for a couple of 9-foot-high backdrops with big maps on them.

"The Daily Show" has put two pieces of its old set up for auction on eBay, with proceeds going to a non-profit group called 826NYC that helps develop writing skills for students. The two pieces are a 9-by-9-foot blue plexiglas wall with a map of North America and a 9-by-7 1/2-foot piece with maps of several continents etched into the plexiglas.

5. I could have my own TDS in my basement!
Like when Kramer found the old Merv Griffin set and had his own talk show in his apartment.
