I was going to watch silicon valley or whatever it's called but the first two episodes are impossible to find on Usenet. I'm sure I'll get them eventually. A proper first world problem.

Great episode once again. I love having this to watch on Monday when there's no Daily Show.

Whenever I hear the name Mitch McConnel now I'm going to think of that.

Good FIFA segment, at least for the American viewers who may not have already known about these things.

Apparently this weekends guest is Stephen Hawking.

Right Said Fred :wub: I adore Jon Stewart but starting to enjoy this more because of the freedom he's given and the lack of fixed interview slots (which can be hit or miss). Oliver's really embraced the lead role spectacularly.

Yeah, I've really enjoyed this so far too. I find Jon Stewart more likeable, but the actual comedy on LWT better. I suppose a lot of this is due to the extra time they have to pick and prepare the stories, but I also prefer the international focus and relative lack of interview slots/comedy correspondents.


That Right Said Fred bit was terrible though and went on far too long.

Am I the only person who thinks this is creatively stronger than The Daily Show at the moment?
