The Daily Show, Take Two

Ed Helms is back!

Look for me and drujan in the audience of tonight's Daily Show. It was fucking freezing, and we just barely got in, after I waited outside for about two hours (and drujan joined me like three minutes before the cut-off time). But nonetheless, the show was awesome.

Also, the reason everyone is cracking up during the Jason Jones segment is that the first time they tried to film it, the technology screwed up and it displayed the teleprompter on the screen behind Jason's head. Jon started totally cracking up, laughing so hard that he curled up in giggles and then had to get out of his chair. Meanwhile poor Jason had no idea why everyone was laughing hysterically at him, which caused everyone to laugh harder. Finally Jon explained to him that the teleprompter was showing behind his head, thus ruining the illusion that everything that happens on the show is spontaneous.

So they filmed it again, and it wasn't that funny, but I'm sure you can hear the audience still giggling as it opens.
