Tonight One Tree Hill came back, so did Gossip Girl and that terrible idea that is the Jay Leno show premiered. But the real good news of Monday Sept 14? The return of The Daily Show. After an annoyingly long 3 week hiatus, Jon Stewart returned to TV tonight in fine form; and boy was […]

 

In his final episode before a long hiatus, Jon Stewart was in top form this week as he launched into one of his trademark “so long you need to view it in its entirety online” interviews with someone who disagrees with him (see also Jim Cramer and Mike Huckabee). To top off the health-care heavy […]

Must Say More: Obsessions 2.0

Brian Williams is the funniest guy that most people assume isn’t funny. He tells Jon Stewart that he looked up to Walter Cronkite like Jon looked up to Carrot Top. The Hangover unexpectedly stands up to a second viewing- who knew I would love this movie? Not me, that’s for sure. But my love of […]

Some of you may have read Rachael’s review/live blog of Jon Stewart’s recent Daily Show interview with Jim Cramer, the host of CNBC’s Mad Money.

My brother works in politics. So this is the only thing my family has talked about for weeks. So apparently Canada and the US are on some sort of absurdity trading system. For years we’ve been a pretty decent place while the US has been universally hated and under the leadership of President Goofus. This […]

 

Since I never claimed to be anything even resembling a real American, I figure a little plagiarism (from Rachael’s Movie Website) can’t possibly hurt my score on John Stewart’s quiz. And since this is hilarious and I don’t watch John Stewart regularly enough to have found it myself, I had to steal so that I […]
