I've been quite ticked about the new Daily Show set. Y'know, what with the couch being gone. I miss the couch. Gave the show a nice, friendly, informal feel.
Or so I thought.
Watched The Daily Show tonight and couldn't help but notice how much friendlier the desk is for a disabled guest. Dude just wheeled right on up to the desk. No awkward rearranging of furniture so he could park beside the couch; no having the guest transfer to the couch during a commercial break. Just entered and sat at the desk like everyone else.
OK, fine. In the interest of accessibility, I withdraw my protest.

I hadn't thought about that. I guess I'll change my vote too:)

Yeah, I saw that episode and feel the same.
I also thought there have been a couple of guests that look like they were having coffee at a coffee shop relaxed. Couches are so
Johnny Carson
so
that David LetterDink
The interview I really liked is Diane Lane (spelling??) She was nervous and giggly and relaxed after a few questions. I just thought she was smart and clever and interesting. I gained a lot of respect by her.
I don't think its made for any worse interviews, do you?

I did, actually, although I can't remember who it was. But some of the earlier desk interviewees seemed a little uncomfortable, like they were back on school or something. And Jon has been a little off his game, too. The news has been top notch since the move, but a lot of the political interviews have been disappointing.
