1. Brilliant
Not exactly the Daily Show's approach and I'm thankful for that!

2. I especially liked the line about
the wife refusing to work, because she's so upset and them being forced to live in their summer house year-round.

5. True...
The Daily Show crew are comedians. They report on factual people and events and crack wise on how ludicrous everything is.

The Onion News Network crew are satirists. They make up people and events based on real-life ocurrences, but exaggerated to a ludicrous degree.

A subtle difference, but I predict both will be equally enjoyable to watch and won't cancel each other out at all.

3. Awesome!
I didn't know The Onion did video. Man, I am so out of the loop. Some of this stuff is priceless.

4. Really funny. I particularly like the part at the end where he is bussing tables
at Friday's and complaining about how unfair it is that the waitresses get all the tips.
