  What’s the relationship like between The Daily Show and The Colbert Report?

  Oh, it’s like brothers. We’re the older brother and we helped create the younger brother. It’s been a hell of an hour. I think now people think of us as a team. Jon and Stephen are great friends and they’re both wonderful people and it’s been a good relationship. I’ve done some work with Stephen as well… and it’s great. It’s very rare that you get to have a spinoff that is so harmonious with the original.
