Come to Quark’s, Quark’s is Fun!

General off-topic chat for the crew of startrek.website. Trek-adjacent discussions, other sci-fi television, navigating the Fediverse, server meta (within reason), selling expired cases of Yamok sauce, it’s all fair game.

Fuck yeah, man. He was the best

[–] rdyoung@lemmy.world 14 points 9 months ago (1 children)

I've had major respect for him since he was on crossfire way back in the day. He took those guys to school and then beat them (verbally) like a rented mule. Crossfire went off the air shortly after his appearance. If you have never seen that episode do yourself a favor and go watch it.

Same. That clip is gold. Made tucker Carlson look like a total moron

You don't see him wearing a bowtie much anymore.

Watching The Colbert Report and Daily Show in the 2000s was something I always looked forward to each night. It'll be nice to have Jon back, if only once a week.

This is awesome! Love to have Jon Stewart back, and I also love to see the correspondents take over the host role more often.

It's kind of a shame that Taylor Tomlinson didn't get a shot at this instead of...whatever the terrible show she just started is.

@midnight was amazing...

I tried her knockoff show "after midnight" and it was terrible.

[–] UnderBoob@lemmy.world 0 points 9 months ago

Lmao at the people down voting. Her new show is garbage, who the hell green lit this piece of shit colostomy bag of random segments brought together.

Jon Stewart is the Millennial Walter Cronkite.

I just wish he'd have gotten into politics.

But I cant blame him after the hit job Al Franken got for being a progressive outsider.

Al Franken had a conscience. When called on his mysoginy, he did the honorable thing and resigned. Sadly there are no more politicians like him.

You have zero idea what happened apparently....

Hell yes, I was never a fan of Trevor Noah personally.
