90% of the time they suck. Colbert's last 2 have been fucking horrible. Their interviews are MUCH better.

1. You didn't like the music tonight?
I thought it was terrific - and the story was marvelous, as well.

How could anyone not love them?

2. I'm usually pleased by the musical guests...
...though they're not always an improvement on the satire we could be getting instead.

4. Right. It's not SNL.
News reports like the one where the three Daily Show reporters debated how to guarantee access to death panels.

8. disagree
I loved them, and when you add in people like CSN and Willie Nelson...

Then again, I am a musician.
