I actually just thought it was just okay. Though I was watching it as a re-run, which might be akin to watching yesterday's news today.

It's funny watching Rob Riggle there. He's a reserve Marine Corps major who worked at my public affairs office in Manhattan to keep busy during the writer's strike last year.

You mean Rob Riggle was a real marine?

Yep. Served in Liberia, Kosovo, and Afghanistan.

Wow... And I though that was a fake story. There's a lot that I have to learn. Don't they put profiles of their team somewhere?

Yeah, he still is, too. He's in a reserve component of the Marine Corps that allows him to put the uniform back on and come back into the office every once in a while when he pleases. He gets me free tickets when I'm in NYC. ;)

I have been watching the Daily Show from time to time since only a couple of months. I must say it is the best thing I have watched on the American television for ages! In the last weeks of the campaign I almost followed the two shows like soap opera! =)

This show particularly wasnt smth exceptional. I've seen genius things from these two (or rather, their writers) but here they overplayed a little bit.
