The Daily Show Toss Recap – week of 9/14/2009

Before we go, let’s check in with our good friend Stephen Colbert of The Colbert Report…

Greetings, Zoners! Congratulations to all of us for making it through the long three weeks of vacation. The boys came back well-rested, and we were greeted by a nice Toss the first day back. Let’s take a peek:

Daily/Colbert – Stephen’s Safari Vacation: Stephen bagged some coral and shot an elephant while on safari in Barack Obama’s birthplace.

A fun toss to welcome Jon and Stephen back — for a second it seemed like they couldn’t find their rhythm, but by the time they got to the part about the elephant I was rolling. I like when Jon starts eating the script, and right after that it appears Stephen starts ad-libbing: “It was the elephant’s fault, Jon, does that help?” “No!” “Okay… ‘Cuz it wasn’t really the elephant’s fault.” How did everyone else enjoy the Toss this week?

    Pardon me for commenting off topic, but I just came across this and had to share!!: http://www.colbertnation.com/interview-simulator/automatic/

    It appears new to me, I hope that it hasn’t been around for awhile and I’ve been clueless! Nevertheless, I LOVE their challenges!!

    Regarding the toss: it’s always great to see them interact, so glad they are back.

    Made me smile, I was proud of Colbert for keeping it (roughly) together as Jon started cracking. Normally he can’t so much lol ^^

    Yes I loved it too, my favorite toss since the “Keyboard Cat” toss. It is even funnier the second time. You’re right, it does sound like Stephen improvised that last part. And Jon eating the script is great.

    I agree, it is funnier the second time. I just love the way Jon said, “Oh, Stephen!” I’d love to use that line on him too.
