And with it, the entire TDS (and Colbert) archives. 25+ Years of Daily Show Clips Gone as Paramount Axes Comedy Central Site People should ask Jon and Stephen about this during audience Q & A in the coming weeks. Really hope somebody (audience/media) gets comment personally from them and that they are forced to address it on their shows. 2 Link to comment
DoctorAtomic June 27 Share June 27 I noticed today because my cable company doesn't carry CC, but I always watch the show the next morning on the website. 3 Link to comment

Recent clips are still on Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/thedailyshow If they don't want to host it *they* should just officially upload all the old clips to Youtube. 2 1 Link to comment
angora June 27 Share June 27 Same, @DoctorAtomic. I know I can just watch the YouTube clips, but I watch the episodes while I'm doing something else (dusting, working on a craft project, etc.), so it's nice to be able to hit play and leave it, not individually select each segment. Which, yes, isn't exactly a "problem." But I hate that everything is getting siloed into a different paywall, and it makes me less likely to want to try Paramount Plus. 3 Link to comment
DoctorAtomic June 27 Share June 27 I've got enough streaming services that I use regularly that I don't feel the need to get another. Link to comment
possibilities June 27 Share June 27 Tonight's show still has the chyron saying we can watch episodes at thedailyshow.com . Is it possible the show doesn't even know about the changes?? 1 Link to comment

I don't really use YouTube this way much myself, but I believe one can create playlists of individual clips or maybe try the automatic autoplay? 1 Link to comment
DoctorAtomic June 27 Share June 27 thedailyshow.com just bounces over to P+. As far as youtube goes, what's annoying is that the opening segment, for example, has 7 ad breaks so you keep having to click skip every 150 seconds or so. You can't just leave it on to watch. 2 Link to comment

possibilities July 15 Share July 15 I wasn't going to watch anyway. They've been so stupid lately, it depresses me. 1 Link to comment

DoctorAtomic July 15 Share July 15 Probably, but there's also liability issues to consider with the increased security. 3 Link to comment
ruby24 July 16 Share July 16 It's corporate media revealing itself. That's all it is. They're not even airing the show tonight? Absurd 3 Link to comment

You are correct. During the Tuesday show Stewart explained that their venue was original within the soft perimeter, but then things changed and the venue would have been within the hard perimeter. Stewart and others felt it would have been close to impossible to do a show under those conditions, so they cancelled Monday and plan to do the rest of the week (Tuesday-Thursday) in New York. 3 1 Link to comment

Absurd Sounds like the team was already in Milwaukee and it just wasn't possible to get everything back and set up in time. They would have had days to do it if the plans hadn't changed.
