Lots of little things made this week's run of The Daily Show with Jon Stewart a good one. First off, who knew NBC's Brian Williams was funny? The bit about the bathroom in the studio was a riot, and anytime a serious newsguy (okay, network talking head) can get Stew to fall out of his chair laughing, you gotta love it. And the pre-headline banter on Thursday's show was brilliant, with Stewart asking if the recent gay marriage and sodomy (oh, there's a Google search result for you) news means we have to become gay, given the massive uproar. Classic, and delivered much better than I just did it, but going back to the tape and quoting it is too much work.
Finally, they did a quick little "jib shot" during the Back in Black segment, and with Lewis Black sitting right next to Stewart, Jon was in the picture, looking very disoriented. Comic gold, I tell ya. Why don't we see those kinds of acting chops in Death to Smoochy?
