The Daily Show and The Colbert Report are returning on January 7 sans writing staffs. I’m curious to see how the content of both shows will be affected. Stewart’s review of the headlines and Colbert’s “The Word” segment are heavily scripted, but these guys should be clever enough to fill the time with improvised off-the-cuff remarks. I still hope the writers can negotiate a fair deal and return soon. The upcoming primary season demands to be satirized and it would be a shame to miss out on the opportunity.
