Get your Jon Stewart and Stephen Colbert fix -- VIDEO!

by Annie Wu, posted Jul 7th 2006 8:36AM

Jon and Stephen lose it.To celebrate the Emmy nods garnered by both The Daily Show and The Colbert Report (and to post something Jon/Stephen-related during this week of repeats), I present to you one of my favorite TDS moments.

This hails from the ancient days when Stephen Colbert was a correspondent on TDS. Whereas Jon often starts laughing during the program, Stephen's always tremendously solid and his character breaks are few and far between (especially in his TDS days). I remember being in tears from laughing so hard when this first aired (it's amazing how Stephen looks like he's crying painfully when he can't stop laughing). The whole clip is pretty funny, but the best bit starts two minutes into the video.

The Daily Show goes bananas! After the jump...

Whoa. I swear I didn't see that on Digg. I didn't even get an account until just now so that I could read it. Just a coincidence, I promise.

Such a classic clip. When it was first on I had taped it and must have watched it ten times. Seeing Colbert lose it to that extent for the only time I can ever remember was just amazing.

Seeing this reminds me of why my favourite 2 minutes of television every Monday to Thursday is the chat between the two of them at the end of TDS.

This is the only taping of the Daily Show that I've ever been to. I don't have much to add other than that I was there and was suprised they didn't edit it at all. Glad they didn't, because it has become one of the best known moments on the show.
