Today marks the 15th anniversary of 'The Daily Show.' Yes, our favorite nightly news parody program is all grown up. Luckily the humor isn't showing its age -- it's often still just as infantile and hilarious as the day the show premiered.Of course Jon Stewart wasn't always the host -- remember the Craig Kilborn days? -- but he's held the desk since 1999 and will forever be the best in the political satire game.
In honor of the show's epic achievement, with over 2,000 episodes, more than 70 correspondents and special contributors and 15 years of telling it like it is, we're counting down the 15 Things We Love About 'The Daily Show,' in no particular order.
[Editor's note: It was hard to limit this to 15. Here's to 15 more good years!]
