Do You Prefer Jon Stewart or Stephen Colbert?

October 29, 2007

Together, Jon Stewart and Stephen Colbert put together one of the funniest hours on television — but what if you could only watch one of them? Would you go with Stewart's cheerful one-liners or Colbert's faux punditry?

lol I love Jon, but his gig on Half Baked was awful. :rotfl: He's been in other things, but he's more of a producer, like he produces The Colbert Report. :)

Sorry, I had a little wine tonight - I meant John is the original. BTW: I love him/them if you could not tell from my picture :-)

I love them both in different ways... but Stephen more ;) My adoration (*cough* obsession) for Stephen stems from his whole career rather than from just his fake news correspondence (truthiness?). That's really the difference. I pretty much enjoyed them both equally until I got into Strangers With Candy (Colbert's other, "extremely canceled" Comedy Central series from '99 to 2000), and it basically snowballed from there. I think the only other work of Jon's that I'm familiar with is his appearance in Half Baked!

Conan O'Brien rules all :) and David Letterman is OK too.

I'm all about the Jon Stewart. Colbert was great...when he was on the Daily Show. But Jon, is just so intelligent and while interviewing and debating more articulate. I mean seriously has anyone ever seen that Crossfire episode? Perfeeection. So, I'm Stewart all the way.

I vote for the both. I can't choose between these two hilarious and smart men.

I'm sorry, but i dont care for Jon Stewart one bit. I hate his show...i guess im not liking his comedic stand on politics. As for Stephen Colbert....that guy gets me laughing every time....LOVE him!!! :D Colbert for president!! ha!
