The Daily what?!?!?!

Roy Wood snubbed by The Daily Show. The Amber Ruffin show although wasn't great per se, she just needed a lot more. I don't think she's a good host, but she is GREAT playing off of other people and transitions. Michael Ian Black is just silly, so he is going to ALWAYS go for the funny! Incidentally, Michael Ian Black my top choice to play Moe from the Three Stooges.

He'll get an honest shot which is all that matters

What hurts every piece of show we see is instant reactions

Media is microwave now
And that's terrible.
Some shows are popcorn
So they pop quick and satisfy that hunger and get renewed cause of it

Others are stew
You ever tried to microwave a good stew?

We used to put stew shows in the crock pot and let them cook until they were done and then rewarded by an all time show

Now we put it in the microwave and press popcorn then throw it away when it's still raw ....
