Samantha Bee is on fire. I loved the diaper piece.

every segment of this episode was on point. I feel like we should have a march on washington for the rights to diapers and mascots.

Guess the NRA didn't get the joke.

Full Frontal fired right back

This episode was excellent. Learning about the history of the Super Delegates was eye-opening and I understand the theory behind it now.

Numaner beat me to it. I thought all three segments hit it out of the park.

I wish her show was an hour long, or on twice a week.

Every second of this was perfect. I learned a lot from her segment on Superdelegates.

Sam has quickly become a better watch than John Oliver, which I don't mean as a slight. Oliver is still great.

I'm not sure whether I prefer one over the other in this pair, but I think they are way ahead of what The Daily Show is doing these days.
