I am so DELIRIOUSLY HAPPY that Jon and Stephen are back! *hugs them both*
And you know, I do not miss the writers AT ALL. Yeah, the cute correspondent segments aren't there, but my main interest has always been Jon and Stephen themselves, and SURPRISE! They're actually funny on their own. Odd, that. Wouldn't expect guys who've been doing standup for ten or twenty years to be able to make jokes off the cuff, would you?

On the other hand, I think I'll just stick with A Daily Show and The ColberT ReporT, and the complete Frasier series DVDs I'm watching.
