Jon Stewart has the keenest, most honest insight into this mess.

[NRaleighLiberal]

He, and his writers, cut right to the heart of the matters, cut out all of the bullshit - he does it with a big heart, a sharp tongue, and amazingly, can bring a laugh to it all to break the stress and pressure. Watching the show tonight, and last night, is more valuable therapy than any psychiatric or psychological professional could offer. This man is a true treasure, and lifeline.

1. Yup, and tonight's is a good companion to last night's episode

It is therapeutic because it's so honest.

2. VERY TRUE and boy does it feel good to laugh after this horrible week

I LOVE HIM. He really is a genius and I totally agree with your analysis about the therapy. It felt like the last time I actually laughed out loud was months ago.

3. His guest last night was good

Michael Moore often talked about how we're being manipulated with fear tactics. And that guest hit that nail on the head.

4. I loved what he said about Brown

he was appointed in '03 and expects to start the job any day now......

5. Is there anywhere online to get full length episodes?

And not just clips? I never watch tv, so I don't get cable. The Daily Show is probably the only program I would ever bother with besides Frontline and Nova which are both online.

6. I am curious about this too

I am behind the times and just have a vcr and it screwed up tonight, hubby is at work and wanted me to tape it..

And I agree .. I was feeling so down but Jon really helps with the truth and the laughter...its a release.

7. It's on many more times in the next few days.

Check the website - they list all the times it airs and you can tape it then. I think it's at 10am tomrrow morning EST and also tomorrow at 8pm EST and there might be a few others.

9. I screwed up tonight because normally Arron Brown's show ends

when the Daily Show starts but his CNN show is an extra hour now and I missed the first 20 minutes of TDS. @#@$##$###$##!!!!

11. I did the same thing last night, but I taped it when it ran later on.

See my post above about other times you can catch it.

17. I need transcripts

Because I don't have cable and my pc is old and on dial up.

8. First time I've laughed since Katrine hit... So grateful!!!

[Cleita]

10. A well written tribute. I agree.

:toast:

[gristy]

13. I agree!

I just hope more than just the choir is listening.

But the comma policeman has reported you! :)
