I watch the Daily Show in the morning along with the other nightly shows.

FOR FUCKS SAKE STOP YELLING. You have a god damn mic.

She sounds like Tracy Jordan doing an exaggerated impression of a woman Tracy Jordan.

    The ‘Loud, Angry Black Woman” schtick is really not for me. She could work as a correspondent, like Lewis Black, but she’s annoying in large doses. I had the same issue with Hasan.

    I like the wry, deadpan delivery better. It seems to work well for humor during the opening monologue and plays well off the correspondents. So far my favorites have been Roy, Wanda Sykes, Klepper, and Chelsea Handler. I’d be happy with Kosta, DL Hughley, Kal Penn, or Al Franken.

      Klepper is the natural spiritual successor. He’s the only one with skills to debate people well.

        Interestingly, the way people here don’t love Leslie for her voice/delivery, i don’t like Michele’s nasaly whine voice. I feel bad cause i don’t think she can control that, but i am being honest.
