Actor Sebastian Stan is no conservative, but he believes his new movie Fjord is, and he traveled to Comedy Central and The Daily Show on Wednesday to promote it and defend its themes from host-of-the-week Michael Kosta, who wondered if people are “overthinking it.”
According to The Hollywood Reporter’s Scott Roxborough, Fjord is about how “a Romanian Evangelical family, headed by father Mihai (…
Comedy Central’s The Daily Show host-of-the-week Jordan Klepper closed out the week on Thursday with an intellectually lazy attack on Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth. During Hegseth’s Wednesday State of the Force address, Hegseth quoted the Bible on multiple occasions, but instead of giving context to the specific passages, Klepper tried to paint Hegseth as a hypocrite because he previously said…
The Daily Show’s Josh Johnson and former NFL quarterback-turned left-wing political activist on a book tour Colin Kaepernick let it be known on Comedy Central on Wednesday that they are deeply disappointed in America.

Ahead of Friday’s 25th anniversary of 9/11, Comedy Central’s The Daily Show host-of-the-week Michael Kosta spent much of Wednesday’s show claiming conservatives are becoming increasingly Islamophobic.

After taking all of August off, Comedy Central’s The Daily Show returned on Tuesday with host Jon Stewart welcoming Utah Gov. Spencer Cox to the show to promote his new book on helping Americans not hate each other as much.

None of the three late night comedy shows that aired original episodes on Wednesday could bring themselves to even acknowledge the existence of the Fauci hearings, and it wasn’t for a lack of time. Comedy Central’s The Daily Show might not have found the day’s biggest news story important enough to discuss, but they did have time for a skit that hyped the idea that President Trump’s neck looks…
The Daily Show’s Jon Stewart reacted on Comedy Central on Monday to President Trump’s Friday’s White House Correspondents’ Dinner address by criticizing the media for inviting “your opponent” to an event supposedly meant to celebrate the First Amendment.

Nevertheless, Stewart…
Comedy Central’s Jon Stewart welcomed former Wisconsin Democratic Party Chairman Ben Wikler to The Daily Show on Monday to promote his book that was nominally about how the left can save democracy.

Actor John Leguizamo stopped by Comedy Central and The Daily Show’s “In My Opinion” segment on Wednesday to give his thoughts on the Supreme Court’s recent ruling that upheld birthright citizenship. According to Leguizamo, critics of the decision should be careful what they wish for because once upon a time “every white person was here illegally.”
At one point, Leguizamo read from the relevant…
It is not exactly a novel insight to say that Democrats do best in big cities, but Comedy Central’s Ronny Chieng was still floored by the idea on Wednesday’s edition of The Daily Show. During an interview with Cincinnati Mayor Aftab Pureval, Chieng wondered how the Democrat was able to win in a heavily Democratic city while also throwing race into the conversation.
