The show is always repeated the following day at 6:00p CDT, which is coming up in just a few minutes. This week only, each day’s episode is immediately followed by the previous days episode, which means if you stay up a half hour later tonight, you can see it still again.
Just came back from their website. It’s there now. Scroll down about halfway. You need Windows Media Player 9.
Thanks for the link, Julius.

It really wasn’t that funny. How difficult is it to cull thru 4 years of video clips and snip sound bites and string them together to make someone look silly?
If Kerry wins, they’ll do the same thing to him in 4 years. And that won’t be very funny, either.
I liked the stupid little smirk on his face as he said that.
Pthbittttiittt. Killjoy .
Last night, after the new episode, they re-ran the previous night episode right after. I assume they’ll do the same tonight, so you should be able to catch it at 11:30 if you miss the earlier re-runs.
Okay, two things. First, when has Jon Stewart or anyone affiliated with the Daily Show ever claimed to be objective?
Second, since when does the fact that you, personally, found one nights episode to be funnier than another night’s episode represent any sort of “objective” evidence of bias?
Zel Miller – did the Republicans-in-charge-of-the-convention have any clue what this guy was going to say? Were they just so excited to get a Democrat to give the keynote address that they didn’t check this guy out?
His interaction with Chris Matthews was unbelievable. “It’s a metafur, you know what a metafur is, don’t you?” And a duel? Bwaaahahhahaaahaha
The first TDS from the RNC wasn’t all that funny IMHO, and I was worried that the Republicans were going to tone it down and TDS wouldn’t have any material. Miller fixed that. If you didn’t catch it, it’s definitely worth setting the Tivo.
A-men! That was great.
I would’ve loved to’ve been in the room when the DS writers first saw that clip with Chris Matthews. I wasn’t, but I swear I could hear a faint, “yessss!” from political comedians throughout the country when Zell spoke.
I missed what day the last day of the RNC coverage is slated? It is tonight (against the normal M-R run of shows) or on next Monday? Would make more sense tonight, especially since Monday is Labor Day (we like to call it “Hurricane Day” down here).
The Daily Show did a special Friday episode for the Democratic convention. I presume they’ll be doing the same tonight, in order to… um… evaluate Bush’s appearance.
I would not be surprised at all to hear both conventions completely vetted the speeches before they were delivered. The idea that Zel caught the GOP unawares is laughably naive.
Well, John McCain seemed to be pretty surprised by it when Jon Stewart asked him about it.
I gotta say that I wish the networks, C-SPAN, et. al, would just use TDS folks for their convention coverage, it’d be more interesting to watch, and more accurate analysis.
Well, it probably was vetted by whoever is in charge of that, but not by McCain personally.
McCain is clearly not part of the inner circle of people running the RNC. He is a bit of a media whore (and I like the guy) and may have aspirations for '08 if he plays along now, but he is not crafting policy for Bush or even part of Bush’s inner circle by anybody’s account. He is a well liked guy, who is perceived to be moderate and non-BS, who they will trot out whenever it meets the GOP’s needs.
You can be damned certain that Karl Rove, Andrew Card and others fully vetted Miller’s speech well in advance.
Oh, I wouldn’t be surprised. It just seemed from McCain’s reaction that it caught everyone a bit off-guard. It might be one of those things where they skimmed the script for the speech, and on paper it didn’t look to be the ravenings of a fire-and-brimstone preacher that it became when Miller delivered the speech.
Of course, I’m not complaining, because it gave TDS some of the best politcal fodder they’ve ever had.
Episodes of South Park still come with the naughty words (including “shit”) bleeped out.
The only time Comedy Central plays South Park with dirty words in it is when they play South Park: Bigger, Longer, and Uncut.
Wrong. They had an episode where the word shit was said nearly 100 times and wasn’t bleeped.
