the daily show back on tv
January 9th, 2008 by shinzu
2 long months..
Ever since the writer’s strike happened, my daily habits pretty much have changed. No more Heroes, Prison Break, and most importantly, The Daily Show.
But I was shocked to hear that The Daily Show would come back on tv January 7th. The news releases said that the show would go on without the writers.
So on my ‘acquired’ Daily Show magically through the Internet, I open the file uhh.. I mean itunes download with great anticipation to be enlightened by witty commentary on world events and politics..
And Jon.. as much as I love your show. The show sucks without writers. Jon pretty much has to do the entire show improv style where there is nothing scripted. He actually said ‘uhh’ a lot in the first half of the tv show.
Watching this horribly scarred Jon Stewart really made me realize the importance of writers and that often Jon Stewart’s awesome commentary doesn’t come from Jon, but his writers.
Oh man.. let this strike be over and spare me this improv agony..
