I've been a fan of the Daily Show and the Colbert Report for years and this guy is simply better than any of those shows. Sure, it's slightly different, but imho, both funnier and more factual.
Great tv.

Great tv.

The only down side is that there's not enough of them (Oliver's shows). You're right, the comparison to Steward & Colbert is the first thing I think of, and I do love those guys, but Oliver is even better. Is it true that he's being mentioned as a likely candidate to take over as Stewart's replacement after he retires?

I don't know about that, aren't they employed by different networks ? Oliver just started with his show, if this was the plan all along I don't think it would happen this way...
We'll see, as long as Oliver has a show (whatever show it might be), I'm good.

I agree. A predictable favorite of mine is his "**** that ima cat" bit.

^I was very close to posting that bit, but I remembered how much I loved the one I did put up. Don't blame that choice on me, ask the dog.
