and he's young in the business. I loved his ReTHUG and Fox bashing. He was hilarious in parts.

Ben Stein is bawling calling McHale mean-spirited. That means he was great.

Christie took a beating as did CNN.

The riff on the CHRISTIE "investigation" was totally great, can hardly wait to get a transcript of that part, which everybody here might as well expect to see as an O.P.

I've watched him the ten yrs of Soup, never on Community.

Actor Greg Kinnear had it from 91-95. John Henson (skunk head) did it from 95-99. Two nobodies did it from 99-02. Finally Joel McHale has been doing it since 2003.

and said one joke he took out of his routine was about Ronan Farrow to the extent of - "who did his stepfather have to molest for Ronan to get his MSNBC gig?"

He was great. The Soup is a wonderful show.
