Any particular reason? I can understand avoiding media that is overly popular (I still refuse to see Titanic or Avatar) but these are, by general consensus, two of the best television dramas ever produced. Add in Breaking Bad and I think that top 3 would be hard to argue with.

Oh I’m well aware they’re more viable, I’ve been watching their rise my whole life. My whole point was that people used to say the exact same thing about voting NDP as they do about voting for Nader or any other independent in the U.S. If the NDP and their supporters had listened to that nonsense, we may very well

I never said that. It is, however, a more artful, more entertaining genre with much better and more sophisticated story-telling in this century than it was in the last, and his viewing patterns may as well be 20ieth century they’re so irrelevant. It’s like signing a contract as a composer of classical music and then

If you vote for the lesser of two evils rather than for someone you like, you get an evil person in charge. People should vote for a candidate who actually represents their values. I say this as a Canadian who has been told by old people my whole life that the NDP were a throw-away vote. Now they’re the official

Yes, there is something wrong with that if he thinks he can make television without liking it or knowing the state of the medium. It’s actually really pretentious.

Yes Conan is delightfully in on the joke, the ridiculousness of it all. I really think though, that Hadar was doing more Conan than anyone else.

.... right after she takes full advantage of it. Realpolitik: that’s so Hillary!

A UN peacekeeping mission to a country torn by civil war or genocide is one thing, and a unilateral, unprovoked invasion of a country in a different part of the world under clearly false pretenses is another, quite different thing. I will not compare the two. If you guys could cease and desist from the latter type of

I’ve never seen The Sopranos, or Mad Men. I’m out every night and when I come home, I watch the end of the baseball or basketball game, and there’s Charlie Rose and I go to sleep.

It’s just a stretch since that wasn’t the intended goal nor obvious that it would become a regional militia like Isis instead of an insurgent force localized in Iraq

Ya really. People need to stop pretending that nobody knew what was really happening, because I remember clearly that both the international community and more rational voices within the U.S. warning that the “intelligence” that Cheney and company were using to sell the war was completely false. Also, if you simply

As Stewart notes, he sounds pissed off that anyone would have the temerity to ask him such a thing. He sounds like a raging dick.

This is common knowledge outside the U.S.; the entire developed world and much of the developing wolrd begged you guys not to attack Iraq in an unprecedented unilateral invasion for the purposes of “regime change”, and Bush did it anyways. What the fuck did you think would happen when you created a goddamned power

Anyone who adopts an acronym of their whole name as their first name loses 20 points in the game of life. Shit is ridiculous.

Now playing

I think this was where the sketch started. Around the 1:00 mark she starts impersonating female celebs on talk shows;

Why does he waste his precious time and interview skills talking to actors?

Americans point out others’ use of slavery from a somewhat hypocritical position, and acknowledging this is not the same as equating America with Qatar. Calm down.

Ya it was funny for a while but now it’s like, dude- put a shirt on. He’s started wearing his pants really high to hide his paunch. He’s creepy and gross.

He’s dreamy!

Great chest. Truly presidential. I think he could out-Putin Putin!
