I hope it’s not a hijack to say I feel this way when Keith Olbermann is not on _Countdown_. I actually get angry, especially 'cause there won’t be a Worst Person in the World that day.

I love Allison Stewart – she does a heck of job filling in, but she’s not Keith O.

I’m a little mad that Scarborough Country is gone. I can’t stand Dan Abrams.

I wish the Daily Show would show “best of DS” reruns when they’re on vacation rather than episodes that just aired two weeks before. They’re old enough now to have several years to cull from.

All the talk shows do that now. I guess it so that someone plugging their movie is talking about a film that is still out in theatres. It bugs me as well.
