G4's Olivia Munn Trying Out For 'Daily Show'
Olivia Munn made her first appearance on Comedy Central's 'Daily Show' last night and judging by the results, well ... the jury is still out.Munn, for those of you who are lacking in geek cred, is one of the co-hosts of G4s flagship series 'Attack of the Show.' Now, however, she is branching out into other endeavors, including what, according to The Hollywood Reporter, Comedy Central is terming a "try out" for the role of 'Daily Show' correspondent.
So how did Munn do? She seemed maybe just a bit nervous in a sketch that cast her as the show's "Senior Asian Correspondent," but soldiered through with the help of, well, just about the entire 'Daily Show' cast, who congregated around her in what was essentially a Comedy Central hazing ceremony.
Whether or not this will lead to a long-term opportunity remains to be seen, though Munn, who would be come just the fifth female correspondent, is expected to tape more skits for Jon Stewart's nightly send-up of current affairs before filming begins on her new NBC sitcom, 'Perfect Couples.' But should Comedy Central bring her back in a larger role? Or is 'Attack of the Show' enough of a forum for her talents? Take a look at last night's 'Daily Show' appearance and decide for yourself:
