Anyone who's talked / e-mailed / messaged with me for more than 3o seconds over the past few years has heard me rave about The Daily Show With Jon Stewart. A new show that began in April is Pop-Cultured with Elvira Kurt (comedy channel) and anyone who loves Stewart will like this too. It's funny and delivers the same punches as Stewart, but from a Canadian perspective. She uses other performers, like Stewart, and, also like Stewart has a daily guest. (Also like Stewart I FF past the guest quite often).
Finally, I guess we all realized that sometimes the only thing worth watching on Saturday Night Live was "Weekend Update".

Minor disagreement about Pop-Cultured. Elvira is one of Canada's best comediennes, IMO. Her 'helper' performers... well, they suck. I've watched the show probably a dozen times and never gotten one laugh from them. EK's relatively consistent, at least.
I think there will be a weeding out process where a few will hone their skills and the rest will be gone - yeah they are nowhere near as good as Samantha Bee or Ed Helms.
