"Clusterfuck to the White House": Okay, I believed that Obama had ringtones on his site, but I didn't believe that they sounded like that. It was a little too ridiculous. To soothe my mind, I had to check on the actual site and, well, the ringtones really sound like that. My brain just exploded. I'm tempted to use one of the ringtones, just for giggles."Oh, the Places You'll Blow!": There's now video of suicide bombers "graduating" from their training camp and yeah, it's kind of spooky. Despite the overall cheesiness, I liked all the stupid graduation jokes.
"Stature of Liberty": Apparently, Americans are shorter than people of any other industrialized country. Senior Health & Posture Reporter Rob Riggle elaborated on this awful, awful problem. The only part I enjoyed what the Riggle gettin' friendly with the giant hand.
The night's guest was Greg Bear, author of Quantico. A single-word title! That's very rare for a Daily Show appearance. Bear totally broke the "favorites" week (Steve Carell on Monday, Brian Williams on Tuesday, Fareed Zakaria on Wednesday), but he was still an enjoyable guest. He seemed, as Jon noted, very tickled, and that was fun to watch.
Moment of Zen: You guys, Mitt Romney smells yummy.

It seems more and more that the highlight of every night's Daily Show is the Jon/Stephen end-of-show talk, which tonight's episode didn't have. Unfortunate.

This was the worst episode in at least a half year timeframe. Filler all the way. But then again if you compare it to Conan or Leno those two have had some really really bad stand-up parts in the last couple of weeks so it might just be that there's nothing fun going on. There can't be a Dick Cheney shooting every spring I guess :-)

I think they only do the Jon/Stephen check-in when they come up with a good idea for it. Same with Stephen's "The Word". I've noticed they've been cutting back on it a lot lately.

I wish they'd go back to having the Jon/Stephen check-in every night. Even when it comes off a little flat, their chemistry generally saves it.

I personally wish they would get rid of the John/Stephen check in. Waste time for better daily show material.

Not as bad as the Monday/Tuesday shows two weeks ago, but as noted above, a filler show. People in the audience booing Riggle for calling 5'6" "half man" size was the funniest thing I've ever seen/heard when it comes to Rob. I miss Rob Corddry so much.
