Winner, Winner. Chicken Dinner.
Who doesn't love The Daily Show? I think one of the true marks of the show's brilliance is how successful its supporting cast has become based off of their work as "Senior Correspondents" on the show.
Steve Carell's got The Office, which remains one of the top two or three shows on television right now, and a ton of big screen roles to his credit as well.
Stephen Colbert hosts The Colbert Report every night right after TDS.
Let's add Rob Corddry to this list. His new Fox show, The Winner, is absolutely hysterical. The plot is ridiculous. It's about Glen Abbott, the richest guy in Buffalo, who was a late bloomer, not really coming out of his shell until 1994, when he was 32. His growth is spurred on by the return of his high school crush (the only girl he's ever kissed). He becomes best friends with her 11-year old son, Josh, who resides at the same emotional maturity level. The show's driving theme is Josh and Glen's attempts to grow up, which is almsot solely defined by their quest to score chicks.
It's got a great supporting cast, including Lenny Clarke as his father, the stripper from Tin Cup as his mother, and the neighbor's son is brilliant. This has made its way to my DVR.
