O’REILLY? FOX Picks up The Colbert Report in the UK

Everyone loves Comedy Central’s The Colbert Report, recently awarded a Webby Award, the brilliant punditry parody of the Fox News Channel’s O’Reilly Factor is loved by many, but for far too long it has not been broadcast in the UK.

The Daily Show, presented by Colbert’s ex-boss Jon Stewart has been aired on More4 since 2005, but no love has been shown for Colbert here. Until now, but be prepared to be shocked, as the network that will broadcast Colbert’s comedic genius will be none other than FX, Fox’s very own UK entertainment channel. I can only hope they wont cut out all the Fox News jabs – there’d be no show!

As I don’t have a TV I will be continuing to watch Colbert on his brilliant website, but for those who have televisions, you’ll now get your Colbert fix… from Fox.

Will Smith: I am Scientologist

Apologies for my Apple Display rumour mongering, it did turn out nobody much cared, even when I tried to push it on some forums, so I’ll have to try harder to find a better story next time… anyway I thought it was important to inform you of some news concerning one of a lot of people’s favourite actors…

Yep, you got it, Will Smith is now a Scientologist, I found this out to my shock on the Colbert Report…

All I can say is everything I’ve heard about scientology is bad, so this can’t be good. As a bonus, here’s South Park’s summary of what Scientologists actually believe.

By the way, I did the poster, and I’m not so keen on Will Smith anymore.

Way to go ruining my life Viacom…

Viacom have launched the most awesome website in human history at TheDailyShow.com, reaching back to 1999 it showcases all the clips available from the Daily Show with Jon Stewart from start to finish. The site is still a bit buggy, and I can’t for the life of me find John Hodgman’s original book interview, but it’s without a doubt the best source for Daily Show videos since the old YouTube.

I’m definitely never going to get any work done.

Now, TheColbertReport.com please?? He’s running for president, I wish him luck…

Tarah.
