(way OT) Daily show in europe
For people not familiar with the daily show, this post mathers the most.
Jon stewart now has a global edition of his show appearing on cnn.
The show is actually a "fake" news. But considering how fake the real news is.....
Anyway, if you want facts presented in sarcastic way, then this is a show you want to see (or record).

airs friday and saterdaynight at 00.30 gmt.
Cheers

Yeah, it's an instant classic this one. I think this is why the daily show now airs worldwide on cnn. i watched it yesterday and it seems it's just the show like they aired during the week on comedy central. The opening credits just say global edition.
I think it shows how good the actual show really is.
You cant compare jon stewart with denis miller IMO, they both are stand-ups. But nobody beats stewart as a sit-down comic.
My favourite stand ups are richard pryor, george carlin and robin williams. It's an art as big as making music.
cheers
Dennis Miller is funny, no doubt... but way too political.
i know, it would appear as though i am saying Jon Stewart is less political... but really he is. He made fun of Kerry's dumb-ass just as much as he makes fun of Bush's dumb-ass. Fair and Balanced Satire!!!!
He finds the humor in everything... his politics are obviously on the "progressive" and liberal side of the spectrum, but he doesn't let that stop him from poking fun at the entire spectrum.
Miller was funny on HBO and SNL, but on CNBC...
he's just way too serious. He's like the Bill Maher of the "Right".
Comedic background, but all business.
Stewart is the smarter, wittier man simply because he's capable of laughing at himself. He has a healthy, non-threatening Ego, which is rare amongst editorialists.

i just got the jon stewart "america" book, and all i can say is the guy is one of the most important people in the world today. this country has gotten so facist that they only way to speak the truth to the masses is in political satire fasion, which jon stewart does brilliantly. i am happy for him that his show is now in global syndication. its the most intelligent thing on tv here in the states (that and along with south park)
