Sythe:
The mother of a dead American soldier is plotting to kill Kevin Bacon!

No.
Nothing that Craig "Should've been fired for sexual harrassment but for some reason comedy central let him keep his job" Kilborn did was ever close to the level of what John Stewart & Co. has done. The writing has improved 20 times over since Kilborn left the show. It's just better now.

I'd like to think it, but no, The Daily Show is funnier.

I wish you could order cable a la carte. I have no interest in other channels (well, Cartoon Network is an old fave,) but I would totally order Comedy Central just for this show.

No way, Kilborn is an annoying putz. Stewart improved the show tremendously. I remember how, when Kilborn left and Stewart took over, a lot of people were all "Oh no, now the show is going to go downhill." Only then it improved, and everyone was like "Sweet!" Like how 5 questions was phased out; at first people thought getting rid of that segment was a bad idea, until it was gone and people realized in retrospect that it was just a one-note joke being repeated ad nauseum (a funny joke I admit, but even the funniest joke gets old when you hear it more than once.)
Still, I do remember my favorite question/answer pair:
"Which is your favorite kind of pie - chocolate custard or banana cream?"
"Chocolate?"
"Oooooh, I'm sorry. The correct answer is banana cream."
