Now you know, and knowing is half the battle. G.I. Joe!™

It has nothing to do with Arby's being healthy or not. It's fast food, no shit it's not healthy.

Jon has already acknowledged (several times, actually) that mocking Arby's is completely arbitrary and unprovoked.

Okay, so it turns out it was just my adblock that messed with the videos. Unfortunately, I have to watch the same 30-second ad 3-4 times just to watch one episode. Ugh.

That gun segment was actually kind of funny. Maybe new guy is not so bad after all.

What was wrong with him before? I thought his first two bits were hilarious. He made more of an impression than Al did, at any rate.

Best first segment still goes to Wyatt, though.

Was his first segment where he was acting like a Promoted Fanboy struggling to keep in character?

I just looked up Wyatt's first segment. I miss him and his ability to say the most ridiculous things with a completely straight face.

(Can't watch the link, because Canada.)

Wyatt's first segment was saying the 2008 Democratic primaries should have been more like Lost, right?

On a related note, Michael Che will be starting with the show in June.

Yep.

Does Viacom not realize that since they don't sell Daily Show DVDs, there's no reason to region-restrict their videos?

Are there any syndication issues to deal with?

I dunno how syndicating The Daily Show would/does work given how incredibly time-specific each episode is.

That actually has to do with Canadian laws. We haven't figured out a way to deal with our rules about percentage of Canadian content in the context of web streaming.

I don't think they would ever syndicate The Daily Show. Or if they do, it would be one of those, "Best of XYZ topic" compilations. Like how they rarely syndicate SNL.

The Daily Show is aired outside of US

I don't understand why you brought that up.

You mean you are unsure what other channels airing TDS has to do with its syndication or you're unclear on what it airing outside of US has to do with its US distributor blocking its Internet stream from non-US users?

Both.

As of today, I can't watch TDS from their site either. Too bad. I liked watching it legally, didn't even mind the repetitive (and in some cases obnoxious and even downright insulting - I'm looking at you, Daniel Tosh) adds.

Make sure your adblock is off; was giving me issues. There are also ways to watch it on the US site if you've got firefox (I think chrome has a way to work around it to but I've never used it)

Use Hola Unblocker, it's an addon for Chrome and Firefox that allows you to get past stuff like that.

Advice on illegal activities in public areas is not allowed.

Technically, not allowed anywhere. But they can only look at PMs with your permission.

Thanks for the tips, but please don't facilitate piracy on this site. I'm tech savvy enough to find a way to watch the content I want.

Watching the US version isn't illegal to th best of my knowledge. watching the MPAA explain why watching their content on their site is illegal would be amusing though. Canada just has some really fucking weird Canadian content laws.
