Ah, the good old days when Colbert's character was an open racist. Can't do that anymore.

It's funny how this just flares up again as topical controversy.

Well, it continues to be a shitty flag, and they continue to do nothing about it.

The Daily Show's original assessment of Bush as a Do-Nothing President is pretty amusing.

If only... If only...

He was pretty funny before MTV drove him into the ground.

man tom green has fallen off the map. havent seen him in years

 

[Griegite]

He hosts a weekly talk show on AXS tv. As of a few months ago when I watched it last.

 

[MrCunningham]

Ah yes, the original controversy around Jack Ass.

She has a point. Kids can't withstand being run down by cars like they used to.

Well, fuck. Apparently the stream is region-locked as of today. Can't seem to watch anymore (Austria).

That's bullshit. Viacom sucks at the internet.

are there internet browser plug ins you can get that fake what region youre in?

Yep, was just watching it about an hour ago and now I'm locked out (Canada).

 

[close to the edge]

Well, yes but those are usually either shady (Hola Unblocker) or cost something (MediaHint). There's not really a way around it that doesn't use a VPN or a proxy of some sort and those cost money to host.

Modify Headers plugin for Firefox allows you to bypass all Comedy Central regional locks. Not shady at all.

 

[GulAtiCa]

What date are we at now in the stream?

Ah, usually region locking is a lot more difficult to get around. For anyone else who's having trouble, this blog post helped me (also works for Chrome).

April 30, 2001

 

[gabbo]

Haven't had any issues with region locking (Canada) so far.
Hopefully it's mostly isolated issues (sorry to hear you guys )

You know I never noticed that those Progresso commercials never actually used the Campbell's name...

 

[Prototype Viktor]

You know I never noticed that those Progresso commercials never actually used the Campbell's name...

it was in the time where no one used the competitor's name. Like MadTV and such would spoof the actual name then one year they just all just stop and used actual names

Yeah, and it's been this way for a long time. It's almost as if the people working for Comedy Central wanted people around the world to be able to watch their shows and just putting up fake barriers due to contract reasons.

 

[TheAbsolution]

Hopefully o can tune back in when it hits July. When will that be? Anyone know?

 

[Prototype Viktor]

11 hours from now give or take 15 minutes

 

[Rats Off To Ya]

Around midnight EST.

EDIT: I think I remember this piece. I feel like the image of that dog is burned into the recesses of my memory.

Why July?

Now May 7th 2001. Really feels so odd watching all these news reports/events from 14 years ago.

It is interesting to realize that other things happened in 2001 than 9/11

 

[explodet]

Dang it, missed the Jackass segment. It's one of my favorites.

No biggie though, still on the website.

 

[Rats Off To Ya]

Oh, interesting, back then you only needed a simple majority to control the Senate.

Thanks, Republicans.

Those Republicans were very concerned about the Democrats blocking judical nominations.

Republicans would never do that.

As frail as JPII looks in this 2001 footage it's testament to his vitality that he lived another four years.

 

[Rats Off To Ya]

Oh, wow. I'm skimming the schedule. Another "also happened in 2001" thing: tonight we'll see James Woods come on the show to promote Final Fantasy: The Spirits Within.

 

[Brianimaniac]

That was the one and only segment Eric Drysdale ever did.

 

[gabbo]

That was Bobby from the Colbert Report... he made the right choice

 

[Brianimaniac]

He's a writer for both shows, so he had a lot going on.

Edit: That air rage segment is the best thing I've seen Mo Rocca do.

 

[Coolluck]

Pre 9/11 was amazing.

[danielcw]

So they are skipping the "guest"-host episodes? Understandable really.

I wanted to relive the glory days of John Oliver and Carlos Danger

Well, fuck. Apparently the stream is region-locked as of today. Can't seem to watch anymore (Austria).

I was still watching from Germany. After I saw your post I refreshed the page

Well, yes but those are usually either shady (Hola Unblocker)

What's shady about Hola?

 

[Tacitus_]

What's shady about Hola?

Hola is P2P and apparently it got... misused a while ago. Though they claimed to have fixed it.

 

[Robaperas]

I'm watching it with Hola, the weird thing is that a few months ago was unblocked, I even have CC on my cable package

Spoiler

(With horrible south american stand up and old movies)

Feel my sting! Feel my sting!

Edit: Oh, I remember this Spanish project segment... maybe because they aired it a bunch of times.
