i kinda hate what it has become. but i'd prolly miss it, if it were cancelled. there was a little while, in there, where it was pretty good... after stewart settled into the job & got over the awkward start, but before it fully changed into a big political rant. it has been really stale for quite a while though. i actually found colin quinn's tough crowd to be refreshing, as knuckle-dragging as it might have seemed, just because of how unpretentiously stoopid and un-demagogic it was, compared with stewart's daily show or bill maher's politically incorrect.

the "colbert report" spinoff series is off to a good start. it's got potential. reminds me of kilborn's daily show: more like a deadpan parody of a news/talk show, an extended kent brockman joke, as opposed to jon stewart's insistence on explaining everything to death & telling you what you're supposed to think. i recommend taking a look at that, if you ever wish the daily show would dump jon stewart & start again from scratch.
