3. Nah, I'm not crazy about her
She's not consistently funny.

16. Oh, well then, if she's from Canada....
then she's certainly the enemy. :sarcasm:

Hell, if everyone who is from Canada left the entertainment industry, I think we'd be left with Pat Boone.

20. They are toooooo nice up there
They have to be up to something.

I think she has her moments. I enjoy the "Are You Prepared?" segments. I think that's what it's called.

9. That's because you hate freedom.
If you're not with Samantha Bee, then you're with the terrorists.

Don't you remember how hot she was when she was pregnant?

26. Well since you mentioned it
I wasn't going to comment on Sam's looks for fear of being labeled a mysoginistic bastard, BUT

She's still fucking hot -- and her lactating breasts are yummy - especially when she was first back at work.

I love her dry wit too.


Love ya Sam, hope you read this. When I saw your report from the statehouse last night, I was I was there to stalk you. :evilgrin:

12. No, but they need another woman and how about some other people that aren't white.
Really, in this day and age why is it always WHITE PEOPLE?!!! Guess blacks, Hispanics, and Asians (to name a few) can't crack jokes or be funny? What a bunch of racists.

17. They have Asif, the aye-rab. He's great. They need someone like Carlos
Mencia who can make fun of immigration policies.

13. Well, she does have bad taste in men
But I think she's consistently funny, as is Asif <I forgot his last name> and that British guy, you know, the poll smoker.

15. Yes, Asif and the Brit are really funny. Samantha uses provocation
with people, which I don't think is funny. She is just disruptive, doesn't seem to have a punchline. But it's OK. Some people like that.

25. Her style is similar to that of Colbert
It's even more jarring coming from a woman, which is why I find it hilarious.

Carlos Mencia, OTOH, I find extremely unfunny. Whatcanyado? :shrug:

And...don't even get me started on Rob Corddry. Eesh.

19. You are correct
Honestly none of the Daily Show correspondents are funny. Certainly not anywhere near Black and Colbert. They really need new ones.

21. No, you are OK. She's sometimes funny, as in the robot/chip skit
she did a while back, but the "Columbus Homecoming" bit, like a lot of her stuff, was just painful to watch.

33. I *loved* the Columbus bit!
Of course everyone's tastes will differ, but I thought she nailed it.

23. She's fine. But she's no Rob Corddry. Or Ed Helms. Or Stephen Colbert.
Those three are the best.

Did you guys see Ed Helms is on The Office now?

28. It is unpatriotic to criticize The Daily Show cast when we are at WAR
All you're doing is giving aid and comfort to the enemy.

29. None of the current field correspondents are very good
I kind of like Dan Bakkedahl because he's just so fucking pathetic. The rest, eh.

I prefer the commentators like John Hodgman. And Larry Wilmore, the cynical African American guy. Wish they had him on more often.

31. I'm not sure what it is...
...but there's something hot about her. Maybe it's her being so damned funny.
