Do they actually show porn? ;) I actually prefer Stephen Colbert's brand of humor to John Stewart's, but it's great that they're both in the Philippines now. Are they showing up-to-date episodes? Because the show works best if watched within the context of current events. And yeah, let them know that it's pronounced "Col-bear" :) What is Maxxx? Do they actually show porn? ;)

It's 15 August today, and it looks like they just moved the timeslot. I watched both last night from 9-10 pm. :) Now we just need to make sure they actually pronounce "Colbert" and "Report" "correctly". ;) Nope.

Now we just need to make sure they actually pronounce “Colbert” and “Report” “correctly”. ;)

Looks like we did something right, because <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maxxx" rel="nofollow">Maxxx</a> channel on SkyCable now shows "The Colbert Report" and "The Daily Show" back-to-back! (See Maxx's weekly schedule <a href="http://telebisyon.net/programa/Maxxx/weekly/" rel="nofollow">here</a>.) Hurray! Now to only tell them that they got the order BACKWARDS (as in, showing TCR before TDS). Seriously, do they just watch NOT these shows at all, because it makes ZERO SENSE when they show TDS ending with Jon Stewart talking to Stephen Colbert, when the show ended thirty minutes ago. Duh!

It would be groundbreaking if a local network would show this. They would not want to deviate from the current majority of pre-programmed-oblivious demographic. It's a waste of "investment". Enjoy the torrents. XD Hah. It would be groundbreaking if a local network would show this. They would not want to deviate from the current majority of pre-programmed-oblivious demographic.

I watch his show, listened (through audio book) his book and it was hilarious. Although he targets US only, it gives us a thought that we can actually poke fun to the government that they will eventually be annoyed listen to what we have to say. stephen colbert. Ayos!

Compared to the Daily Show, I think Filipinos would have an easier time understanding the humor of TCR. It would be hard to squeeze it in on Jack TV with the late-night mavens, O' Brien and Leno, now on the scene and conquering late nights. I think it would do good with 2nd Avenue.

But there's no way that the show is gonna make it to local shores... it's too, ummm... "foreign" for most Filipinos. OMG I heart the Colber Repor!
