Jon Stewart Leaving 'The Daily Show'

I really enjoy Jon... The Daily SHow won't ever be the same. I wonder what he is going to do next.

Not sometime very soon but this year. First Stephen Colbert and now Jon. So much enjoyment for so long and now I'll be so sad.:(

I so agree Josiah:( I guess we'll still have our re-runs online:) at least. I don't think anyone since Carson made me laugh so much as Colbert did, and Jon Stewart, well, I always enjoyed their chemistry;)

I saw Stewart talk about his own departure yesterday, not sure if it was on his show or a news show, but he did make the announcement live. Colbert has been gone well over a month and will be replacing Letterman, but, it will be a different show altogether, not his kind of performance he gave on the Colbert Report show.
 
I liked Colbert, didn't watch Stewart that much. Never watched Letterman, don't care for him, but I'll probably take in a few shows now that Colbert is hosting.
 
April, There is only one Stewart; I hate to see him go.

Sea, I could not stand Letterman but I'll watch Colbert too. I hope he keeps some of his sting.

Ditto that.

The thing I worry about Colbert is that he was playing a character, we don't know what he's really like, but, I do imagine there will still be some zing there, I sure did love the character he portrayed.

But I do plan to tune in. I already have to use my remote to flip channels midway during that hour as it is, but if he retains any of the old Colbert, I'm going to have quite the nights.
 
A lot of people that are "playing" characters are so good at it because it is in their own personality. I doubt I'd ever not like Colbert.
!
 
I'd kind of like to see Stewart show an interest in becoming a politician....he certainly has had a talent for Nailing much of the Stupidity that goes on in Washington.
 
He really does Don, he is no dummy, and although he is way liberal, he can still see both sides. I think a lot of people are more liberal nowadays because of the drift away from the God of the bible. Not saying that's wrong, but I think it has a hell of a lot to do with it.
 
Stewart is mostly "Liberal", but he has come down pretty hard on some of the Democratic positions, too. I would call him a Left leaning Moderate when he decides to get serious.

One of the Strengths of this nation has been the "Separation of Church and State". Those who would try to remove that part of our nations foundation are doing us all a great Disservice.
 
I think you are right about Colbert, I read one "interview" where he said he was a democrat, but some of his stuff makes me wonder "again" about the truth of the media;) He kicks butt, I love him;) LOL! I can agree with some liberal things, for sure, but I can also agree with some conservative;) I'm open to learn, remain teachable, always;)

I would love to know where you read that Colbert himself says he is a democrat, I've yet to see him make such a statement. As far as I'm aware he's an independent, but, could be either or.
