Yes, and that just ...

i think dave is great. he rags on white people but he rags on black people too. its racist comedy, all of his jokes are racist in some way. he's black, so naturally he goes after white people. if he was Mexican, he would. naturally.. go after white people. if he was Asian he would.... actually.. he would make fun of himself.

Oh, but then they would have to be intelligent.

daily show is ok, but Colbert report is the best.

i wasn't sure if it was just me but after reading these posts i have realized that it is true. Comedy Central has pretty much given up. They do only have two shows that are worth watching: The Daily Show and the Colbert Report. They are basically one show, i'd say though, since the Colbert Report is mostly an extension of what Steve was doing on The Daily Show.
All Comedy Central is doing now is re-runs of crappy MAD TV..... ALLLLLL DAAAYYYY LOOONGGG! Also, they occasionally have sitcoms and sketch shows come along that run for two or three episodes and no one knows about them.
i miss the days when Upright Citizens Brigade was on. They're a bit immature but at least there was some inteligunts to it. i remember The Legue of Gentlemen as well... yet that had it's stupid moments as well.
