Makes perfect sense, since The Daily Show and Colbert Report are made for European American (white) audiences only. Oh, wait, they're not. So this isn't really comparable. (Why do we need any more of this unfunny one-man-in-drag-and-fat-suits “comedy”, anyway?) Give Larry Wilmore a spin-off instead!

Chocolate News
TV Buzz In the age of Obama, Comedy Central is [finally] trying to capture an African-American audience in this sketch show disguised as a newsmagzine set to air before The Daily Show and The Colbert Report (not bad). Rumor has it that Tyler Perry had to be “forcibly removed” from the set when he learned that his name wasn’t attached to the project. Thank goodness too, because we’ll take Grier’s Maya Angelou over towering nightmare Madea any day. (Also, I made up that rumor.)
