I don't care how it's supposed to be pronounced "Jif" is peanut butter. Pronunciation as in 'gift' is the way to go.

Technically, jif is correct simply because the people that came up with the term say that it is, but I always think gif in my head.

It is pronounced "GRAIN FAT" (I claim it is a reference to the grainy nature of .gif files).

It's "jif", so says the guy who developed the format.

Bravo to Colbert's take on the horse meat thing in Europe.

The part last night about Russia was incredible. Couldn't stop laughing. The name they gave Armageddon, holy hell, I was in tears.
Getting caught up after a long week of work.

So good.
Surprisingly, Alison Brie appeared not to have as much charisma as I had been led to believe

The guy Colbert had on last night was NOT amused by Colbert's antics at all. He looked like he wanted to kill Stephan dead. The soccer guy was none too happy either.

Yeah, his intellectual comments were a total WTF moment, and I love Football (soccer).

I just caught up with this week's episodes. I've been watching the Daily Show for about 6 months now and I have to say that was the most hilarious thing I've seen so far. However, it kind of ruined the joke for the Colbert Report. It just didn't have the same impact.
He kinda missed it.
He said "Up, up, down, down, b, a, b, a, select" while its "Up, up, down, down, left, right, left, right, b, a". Good try though.

Any bit with Jason Jones or Aasif Mandvi are instant gold. They shit golden comedy nuggets.
That was hilarious!Completely lost it at the Maple Syrup story.
Wow, did not expect that choice for Jon to direct.
And I think John Oliver will do perfectly fine as a replacement host, although much of his humor is in banter with other people.
Wow, he's directing the movie? I remember the interview with the guy. I wonder how John Oliver is going to do.

Should be interesting because as much as Stewart is a comedian, he still brings a semi-serious, are-you-shitting-me-they're-this-stupid ambiance to the show as host.
Oliver doesn't carry that so it remains to be seen how the show feels with him at the helm.

Stewart to direct a drama. Wouldn't have guessed that.
This definitely deserves its own thread.
I'm kind of excited for this. I love John Oliver. I'm sure I'll miss Stewart, but still, Oliver's good stuff.

I got tickets to the show for April 1st... Since it's April Fools Day, it should be a pretty funny episode to be at!
Can't wait.
Can't wait.
They're both really good when given the right story. Jones has a completely different take on the correspondent 'character' than anyone but maybe Aasif.

Having watched every single episode of the Daily Show for more than a decade now, I'm looking forward to seeing what John Oliver brings to it. A little variety is always nice!
Someone on another forum suggested that Jon should come on the show as a guest to pimp his movie. PLEASE OH GOD YES.

John Oliver is going to be awesome, I'm sure we'll see Colbert pop up a few times fighting the British invasion
It's always great when Colbert straight up smokes the guest.
I remember when he was interviewing some guy and misquoted the bible so Colbert corrects him by properly quoting the passage. The guy says Colbert must have gone to Sunday school and without missing a beat, Colbert fires back "I teach Sunday school motherfucker"

John Oliver doesn't really have a personality as a correspondant. He could play the John Stewart straight man role fine. Even Colbert as a Daily Show correspondant wasn't Colbert from the Colbert Report. I think Jason Jones is the only correspondant with an actual personality that doesn't change everyday depending on the script for the bit they're doing.
