Getting closer and closer to the elections, and rounding out the debates from both sides. And I thank you, my friends.

Sarah Palin doesn’t blink when it comes to talking to Sean Hannity about the economy, and Tony Blair likes George W. Bush…sounds like a Lil’ Bush episode to me!

John McCain attacks Barack Obama in a new ad, and Jon introduces the best election news team.
and don’t forget to follow Jon’s final thoughts,

Oh boy was it a great week to come back. Although there was a lack of Samantha Bee and Mr. Mandvi, I suspect they’ve got something ggggggrrrrreat under their collective sleeve. And usually I have no problem taking out a Guest interview (or two) being that’s not what viewers remember about a specific show, but all of them were great this week! I mean, yes, I did have to cut out Monday’s Jim Webb, but only because his response was giggling at Jon’s non sequitur quips–not counting that whole Applebee’s spiel. OY! What were they thinking?! That and Gitmo, which I believe was only talked about as much because of Jon’s pure charisma when using the high-pitched voice, were really hard to get through. Yet still, all in all, fun week.
Oh yeah! Rob was back!! NOW I remember that elated feeling I had when putting in the finishing touches. Good times…
Maybe I really just missed watching the “news” and knowing what’s going on in the world/country. Enjoy!
Oh, and enjoy the newly FULL EPISODES too! Much excitement going on around here.

Oh boy did I <3 the Douche-Bag Off! Perhaps it’s the Southern girl in me that will never die or that anytime Jon does an accent it’s friggin’ hilARious. Either or…I was pleased with this week. Lots of long, yet really great, interviews to cut up and plenty of crappy news hilarity to choose from. Numerous darlings died last Friday.
Good thing you can check out all the clips, white-flash free (that is, unless it’s the TDS graphics staff doing it) at TheDailyShow.com. Yep, that should earn me a paycheck this month.
AANNDDDD I just noticed that the cutting-out-early thing is still in effect and that I, nor anyone who should also do a once-over before putting it out there, did not notice my title flub. I changed it but it looks like it might be there to stay. Aw shucks. Maybe someday when the DVD comes out the right one will be seen.

Whef~what a week!! Good guests, not just McCain of course with his super-pandering abilities, but also book whore Fareed Zakaria, as well as featuring almost all of our correspondents (Samantha Bee looks like she’s about to pop so I’ll be easy on her lacking appearance). While I had to cut out Senator Harry Reid’s adorable filibustering bit, I’m moreso disappointed that I couldn’t have just made a montage of “John Ollie’s Ticket to the Pollies!!” He and Cojo were an absolute hit–def my favorite part!

Oh man was this week a dooz. Too many references to Rev. Wright and reusage of footage over multiple days makes a simple recap hard! And altho I loved the blunt John Hodgeman reply to Jon’s question about spiritual advisors being a new phenomenon–”No, if anything, it’s not”– and Jason Jones’ “Hey-o!!” I figgered they’re more for the mash-up style as opposed to the Week in under 4-min montage, ie better for the person getting their TDS fix for the week in a single video.
If I can help just one person step away from the TV/Internet for 2 hours out of the week to watch this:
then I guess I’ve succeeded.
Sucks for ad-sales tho!

Well this certainly was a fun week with graphics and sound bytes galore, but I’m really intrigued by this Congo penis theft story. Hopefully Jon will touch on this subject again…
Don’t be dirty. The ellipses is used as foreshadowing, not as a childish pun. Although that would’ve been funnier. Damn.
