I read, watch and listen to a lot of news – far too much in fact. Most news these days is either about heart breaking disasters or, more often, anger inducing acts of people and governments; either way, as a news consumer, it makes it difficult for me to keep from being fairly irate much of the time… or it would do if it wasn’t for Stephen Colbert and Jon Stewart – purveyors of the best political satire on any network anywhere in the English speaking world (and probably beyond).
As well as satire Colbert can do slapstick and even dance (a bit). This clip of Colbert and friends dancing to Daft Punk‘s Get Lucky is the most joyous 6 minutes of television that I have seen or am likely to see this summer. Sheer bliss.
