The Daily Show with Jon Stewart: Indecision 2004: Disc 1: Democratic National Convention: The Race From the White House

This disc contains four episodes devoted to the Democratic National Convention (with the Rebuplican National Convention taking up the next disc in this four disc set). Episode one is no better than the average Daily Show you could catch most nights, which is to say its still pretty decent. The highlight of this episode is Stephen Colbert's Primemory Lane, where he looks at what the other nine initial Democratic candidates lacked. Episodes two and four are also about average entries in this terrific show. Lewis Black's Back in Black segment is the best part of episode four, while shockingly the interview with Senator Joe Biden (D-Del) is the highlight of episode two. Normally, the interviews are the least exciting part of the show, but Biden gives a hilarious interview that you should check out even if you skip the rest of the show. Episode three, however, is a prime example of when the Daily Show goes from being good to being brilliant. Here you will find the best segment of the whole disc as the Daily Show presents their alternate version to the biographical film that was shown before Kerry's acceptance of the nomination. All four shows are worthwhile, but the fourth one blows the others away.

My grade: B+

(I'll review the other three discs of this set as I watch them)
