Just watched that while I was eating lunch. The louis ck segment made me put down my sandwich I was laughing so hard.

i find him way funnier when he plays the straight-man...his impressions are godawful.

I find stewart much funnier than Colbert, but both entertain me. And it was a lol episode last night for sure. Louis C.K.`s segement on leno was also awesome.

love stewart, hate colbert

and louis ck is my favorite comedian of all time by far

stewart is at his best when he is off the cuff but i find when he reads the jokes, his delivery is too sarcastic or something. there is just something off about his timing for me. colbert is terrible. he is just derivative of so many comedians that i don't find funny at all. louis ck has been amazing in the past few years but i hope this new found popularity doesn't change his regular act. i have him up in the same league as attell for me.

hmmm...never liked attell. post a funny clip?

Yeah, he can be hilarious during interviews but his shtick gets old. His impressions are usually lame. I've really enjoyed Stewart lately, I started watching him again a year or two ago when all already terrible American political rhetoric became even more batshit crazy and ignorant.

colberts intros before the theme song are the only good thing about that show pretty much

i'd say seek out skanks for the memories (or i can send it to you). his delivery and tone are just great to me. i find him and his actions funny. he reminds me of a cousin of mine. i am also a huge fan of mitch hedberg.

definitely. he was amazing on bill o'reilly not too long ago but i can't really watch the daily show.

search for the world edition, it's a compilation of the best stuff in the week.

i love stephen colbert, but i think part of my preference is based on my hatred for EVERYBODY on the daily show except for jon stewart. i can't sit through a full episode of the daily show because of the "correspondents".

wyatt cenac is good. everyone else is absolutely UNWATCHABLE.

aw man, the brit who also appears on community is the one correspondent i can deal with. but holy fuck, that episode was amazing. i might just be reeling from louie ck's appearance. i'm pretty convinced every single word he said was fucking hysterical.

man i was crying laughing during that louis c.k. part. i had no idea he was so funny.

louis has been making the rounds lately. The night before he was on jimmy kimmel live.(my personal favorite late night show). Louis did a bit about him obsessively stealing tampons when he was a kid. Really funny. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_oF8Js9v3ag

The writing can be good. The steward contributors are mostly sucking, though.
