If you're still missing the Daily Show with Jon Stewart I think this might be your antidote.

I actually had no intention of watching this show, as I was never that much of a Samantha Bee fan.

However I just so happened to stumble across it Monday night, and holy smokes is this a good show!

Now don't get me wrong, I like Trevor Noah, but he just does NOT have the same timing and delivery that I came to expect from the old Daily Show.

That being said, Samantha Bee does.

So FINALLY I have a must see program to watch that starts to ease the pain of losing the irreplaceable Jon Stewart.

P.S. You can read more about the show here at Mother Jones.

    It was a great show and so glad to see her back. I watched the first few episodes of Trevor Noah and haven't been back and I never watched the guy who took over for Colbert's slot so this is really refreshing to have some "old school" Daily Show talent back on the air. It was devastating to lose Stewart and Colbert so this is wonderful.

      His name is Larry Wilmore. Replacing two beloved white men with two black men has really irritated Stewart fans. I stopped watching Jon Stewart five years ago. I realized that people who watched him felt that's all they needed to do. That was their absolution. Police brutality. Racism. Watch Jon Stewart.

      At first, I didn't like Trevor Noah, but he's really starting to get into his stride now and I find myself enjoying the Daily Show more and more

    I always thought Samantha Bee was the bee's knees. Loved that clip.

    I can't wait to see how she covers the Michigan state legislators regarding their law against oral and anal sex.

    I've always liked Sam Bee and her lovely husband but I also like the broader perspective that Trevor Noah brings to the Daily Show. I also catch the Nightly Show sometimes because I appreciate the black perspective.

    And although I never miss the his new show, the show that I really, really miss is The Colbert Report.

    I have to agree with you, Gryph. I was never a great fan of Samantha Bee on TDS. But DAMN if she hasn't come into her own on this new show from what I've already seen. She is going to be a force to be reckoned with if she keeps this up!

    My daughter introduced me to her talents, Samantha can rock it! Sometimes her timing's a bit off, but overall she's really funny.
