Blasphemy. Cordry WISHES he could be as good as Stephen Colbert.

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

My problem with Colbert is that every segment of his is one joke of him doing something embarassing (or it could be an embarassing title, like 'Senior Child Pornography Analyst') and talking in that dry tone. Very often there isn't anything more than the humiliation joke and the "boy TV reporters sure sound funny when they talk like this, huh?" joke.

 

Cordry does that sometimes, too ("COULD?! IT!? HAPPEN!? HERE!?") but not as much.

Meh. The thing about Cordry that I don't like is that at no point do I ever buy him as a guy who could be on a news show. I know that sounds silly because the Daily Show is fake news and all, but outside of Frank DeCaro and possibly Mo Rocca, the Daily Show's contributors all tend to look and act like respectable newspeople (even Bob Wiltfong, but just barely)... and then they actually start talking and it all goes to hell. Cordry... meh. He's funny but he's too over-the-top for my tastes.

I appear to be in the minority here but I actually enjoy Ferguson. I think that he does a good job in his interviews. I think that by using his scottish background it makes his show unique and fun to watch.
