I really liked Klepper on TDS, so I'd have definitely given it a try if it were around. That said, Comedy Central UK doesn't exactly do a great deal with its sister-stations' programming. We currently get The Daily Show on a day and a half's delay. I say that because it has been airing at 1am the following day mean you can't really see Monday night's show until you find some time the following Wednesday. Indeed, a quick look at tonight's schedules show that they've pushed it even further back to 2am this week. (Comedy Central UK is mostly made up of Friends, South Park and TruTV interloper Impractical Jokers reruns all on hard rotation, with a smattering of original programming repeated endlessly, as well as a few acquired films and odd comedy sets.) We had also been getting The President Show in a fairly timely fashion, although I don't see an upcoming episode in the listings. The Nightly Show never made it across the pond, The Colbert Report briefly, and even The Daily Show has had periods of disappearing. Adam -- -- TV or Not TV .... The Smartest (TV) People!
