Although I occasionally LOL during other talk shows, Maher’s is only show I can consistently count on for LOL moments. His writers are as good as President Obama’s.
I’ve never found Stewart funny (too over-the-top for my taste), which is why I never watched his show and won’t be watching him on HBO. I did regularly see excerpts from The Daily Show in the “Play of the Day” clip reel that’s posted 5 days a week at Government Executive, so I am familiar with his work.

There might be some topical overlap between Stewart's projects and LWT, but no more so than there is between LWT and, say, Real Time. HBO is a big, multi-headed beast; just because JO & JS are in the same tent doesn't mean they'll be performing side by side.

Oliver may be pieved that he's again at the same employer. <http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/live-feed/jon-stewart-headed-hbo-four-836443> THR (link) B -- -- TV or Not TV ....
