John Oliver Freaks Out Like a Comic Book Fan Internet Commenter on Last Night’s ‘The Daily Show’

We just need Mr. Fry to kickstart the thing over here. Install some personalities that your average viewer here knows and you have a winner.
As an American who lived abroad for 8 years with 5 years in London, trust me when I say English humor took some time to adjust to. Start a QI with an English host (maybe John Oliver?!?!) and American panellists and then slowly drip feed the English ones. It's more humane.
But agreed, Netflix or Hulu needs to get that quality English tellie streaming!

August 15, 2013 7:13 pm @kzap Closest thing we might have to Mock the Week or QI that I can think of is Real Time with Bill Maher. It's more politics and issues rather than news but it does have some of the same silliness at times.
Tell Mr. Stephen Fry to get over here and host an American version of QI. That would be most excellent programming.

August 15, 2013 4:40 pm Oliver is so good at lampooning news because he's been doing exactly this in podcast form for almost six years now.

My Insomnia Loves These Comics
July 30, 2013 12:31 pm The last book to give me sleepless reading nights was Locke and Key. It's still the trade I look forward to the most when it hits the shop. I can't remember the last time I was this excited for a finale to a series either.
