9. No, it's not wrong...
...but it IS O.K. to love both shows differently. :dilemma:

Don't choose, just love. :evilgrin:

I love them both.:loveya: (ah, the last smiley is for the shows BTW)

10. Different types of humor, both uproariously funny.
I am so happy Colbert could make a series about represenative districts so pricelessly funny ...

Now he's tossing to a morning program called "Yet Another Day".

If they do a morning program I may actually turn on CC during the day.

11. The Jeff Daniels Interview was great too!
It was a really good episode. I've only managed to catch 4 so far, but I have watched clips online. Daniels had no idea how to react (actually to be honest, he seemed a little pissed, like he was hoping to actually say something) - whatever, it was extremely funny.

I liked the "better-know-a-district" segment better than "The Word." And the whole "Supreme Court shelf of broken dreams" was uproariously funny.

13. Yeah, TDS was really good too tonight
The Miers-stuff is really funny and even funnier - and totally, utterly baffling - was the middle segment with Samantha Bee about a guy who's selling a type of tofu meant to have the texture of... human flesh (??!!!!). There aren't enough adjectives to describe how outrageous that segment was - and totally worth it. The interview is good too, as is the moment-of-zen.

14. Was that real? A lot of times they interview people who are real.
But I think the product was too weird to be real.

15. The astrophysicist on last night...Tyson...was a great guest and
Stephen got into intelligent design. Tyson said it was "intellecually lazy." It was a great interview and came on earlier in the show....

17. Most of the video is at the Comedy Central website
Except for the one I think was the best so far, his re-editing of the Kay Baily Hutchinson Sunday morning interview, inter-cut with the Hurricane Wilma reporter. That was great!

Videos here:

Or and here's his Fan site too: <http://www.colbertnation.com/colbertnation/>
