I wonder what they will call it?

The Bee Hive?

So no....

Past her prime?

because god knows there will be tons of offensive sexist shit to cover, and she is the one who does it best.

What does that even mean?

What else would it mean?

I love the skits she does with Jason

I have only seen her in individual skits recently and found them "meh".

I am a casual Daily Show fan at best and only suggest that it seems that she used to be better/funnier in her earlier years.

omfg 'cause Colbert is a hunk.

this is why TV and movies suck, idiots who want to look at hot looking people because smart jokes fly over their pointy heads.

"idiots who want to look at hot looking people because smart jokes fly over their pointy heads."

i notice he wasn't even able to explain his comments and bring up actual criticisms of her as people do when discussing someone like LEno and why so many don't like him.

It's a subjective opinion....



As for 'specific criticisms', there aren't any other than what I already said.

She is meh... Average.. OK...

I think she used to be better than she is now. I don't understand the sensitivity to the fact that I am not as enamored with Samantha Bee as you all seem to be.

HOF stalker, lol. Random sexist bullshit? Yeah.... I'm calling this one.

at least for a little bit.

... And before you even asked because I am so considerate.

and she is only 5 years older than Fallon.

But I don't know that she has the chops that Stephen has.... but nobody does.

Worth a try, I guess.

She's funny and talented, no doubt about it, but those are some hard shoes to fill. Maybe if it was a whole new show/concept. I don't think anyone can really make the premise of the show carry on any longer as-is, though.

to me she's painful to watch
ymmv

Ugh....

voting

not super surprising.

Not really interested in the opinionated blather of millionaires, nor am I prone to celebrity worship.
I'll take a good book or long nature walk over that BS any day.

DU is all about making fun of those with differing opinions and beliefs? Lord have mercy, I'm throwing Sinclair in the trash and turning on Stewart.

take it or leave it. Buh bye.

I think he could carry the torch for Colbert, but Samantha Bee would be a great host too.

And bring back Wyatt Cenac and have a panel-hosted show.

I could see him hosting. Samantha Bee isn't my favorite. She makes me uncomfortable. I actually prefer her husband Jason Jones; he plays a perfect jerk. Wyatt Cenac never did much for me. I also like Aasif Mandvi, Jessica Williams, and, of course, John Oliver.

Her bits are amazing. She makes me cringe all the time, but so does Colbert. That is the point, they are using art to point out ignorance of all kinds. Her bit on erectile dysfunction was hilarious, cringe inducing and highly informative all mixed together in one skit. She is great and would be a huge hit, as long as they let her do her show, not a carbon copy of Colbert.

I think Jessica Williams would be another top candidate for a show. She is tremendously talented and so very smart. I do not know why she has not been snapped up by a producer for a project, long before this. Just goes to show how stupid most people in that business really are. I love it when Stewart has Ms. Williams on. If I were a producer, I would have her agent on speed dial for proposals.

In fact, all of the Daily Show correspondents are much less funny now than back in the day with Stephen Colbert, Steve Carrell, Rob Corddry, etc.

Is she on Colbert's show?
I rarely watch Colbert show.

and give more time to others on the show..

That would be the easiest to do and would give them time to flesh out something that would last.. The whole Colbert Show was a Kismet thing after O'Reilly started slamming Colbert.. I cannot see too many people being able to carry off a show like it, and anyone who tried would endlessly be compared to him.

that way they wouldn't have to turn almost the whole show over to a big interview catch like Michelle Obama.

I like them both

I don't find her funny. There's no way she could replace Colbert.

She's hardly on the Daily Show whereas John Oliver hosted the show for a month! If Jon Stewart wanted to hone her chops he would have given her a week, at least. Of course, that ASSUMES she has any interest in hosting, and that's a HUGE ASSUMPTION!

Yes, I would.

Samantha Bee?

Yawn.

...but I'd like to see Wanda Sikes do late night.

Now THAT would be some brilliant fun!

if she wanted another gig. Does she?

I find her stuff funny in very small doses, but half-an-hour four times a week? She's too over-the-top for me.

The newer female addition to the cast, Jessica Williams, is far more entertaining.

Love to see it thought.
Ms Bee's timing and delivery are near picture perfect. But with SC taking the majority of the writing staff with him, Comedy central might have issues filling so many positions so quickly.
Add to that she will need to present a workable format to the executives.



Maybe a female aligned show split between Samantha Bee and Jessica Williams. The 51% who get 77% of the credit due.

A spoof of Fox & Friends. Maybe Bee could be the blonde bimbo.

The HBO Daily Show, Sunday Nights beginning April 27.

Daily Show is only 4 days a week so he could do both if HBO contract permits.

Although 4 half-hour shows a week of Lewis are likely to be a bit much.

Lewis Black - Capitalism Greed Bernie Madoff and Bankers (Live in Amsterdam)

they need to keep a fake commentator show in that slot! sign my poll!
