Making a list and checking it twice.
So tonight is organization night and it goes just as far as it goes, which is to say Sunday 12/30 when Comedy Central's listings run out. Sorry jlms qkw, I'll get them as soon as I can.
I've included all the 11 pm to midnight programming on our usual Monday - Friday schedule as well as some additional items of interest, principally Futurama ek'smas episodes and South Park specials. I see that there is a healthy mixture of Beavis and Butthead where I haven't decided if it's new or not. If new my activist brother will probably want me to tape it for him because he's a huge fan (heh heh, heh heh heh, he said huge).

As is our custom we'll be attempting to provide amusement when most sources of it are disrupted because that's when you'll need it most. I'll also be attempting to develop a consolidated Digest for 2012, we do occasionally feature some good stuff along with the crap I pump out and I think there are a few items of interest that may have been generally overlooked.
Tonight's Interviews
Full The Daily Show (12/6)
More Chris Christie than you are probably interested in-
Part 1
Part 2
Full The Colbert Report
On the other hand, I wish Stephen had more time with his guests (except when he's doing that Big Jim/Billy Sol Farm Celebrity Sing-a-long thing).
In new news I did manage to see The Hobbit this weekend and found it much more enjoyable than the critics suggested and alas it appears Nikki Hally has decided to go in a different direction for a replacement for Jim DeMint.
On with the show.
