I watched the rest of the week because I like Klepper, but the other correspondents leave me cold. I suppose Stewart will hold onto his following, but the more I've seen him since he left the show the first time, the more I've disliked him. I don't think he's setting himself up for being harsher on Trump, though; for, what, a decade?, he's been too much "a pox on both your houses" for my tastes. I'm not saying that either the Dems or Biden haven't earned criticism, but what he does in that regard is lazy and obvious. --Dave Sikula

I'm not sure how I managed to miss that for several DECADES, but there you are. I thought Jon's return succeeded where it needed to; yes, he leaned into "both choices are horrible" during act 1, but he quickly called himself out re: the "ravages of age"; the BFNTP got in some good shots at Stewart (particularly Dulce Sloan and Jordan Klepper) during act 2, so you get the feeling they were turning into the skid re: some of the criticism leveled at Stewart's return. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "TVorNotTV" group.
