I was watching “The Daily Show with Jon Stewart” tonight and he made a quick joke about how he’s aged over the years and wonder just how much he has aged. Jon Stewart took over the helm at the Daily Show in 1999, but has been on TV since the early 90s.
I couldn’t find a pic of Stewart in his first show of The Daily Show, but I did find an early one, and a pic of Stewart & Conan O’Brien on “The Jon Stewart Show”

U.S. version of the IT Crowd pilot

Wanna see something very bizarre? Here are three segments of the US version of the IT Crowd‘s pilot episode. And guess who’s playing the role of Roy? Joel McHale from none other than E!‘s The Soup. Note how closely Joel sticks to the way the original actor (Chris O’Dowd) delivered the lines. It’s like Joel’s channeling Chris.
And guess who’s playing Moss? Yep, you guessed it, Richard Ayoade.. the same actor who played Moss in the UK version… told it was weird. But judge for yourself.
UPDATE (8/12/10 10:18AM): I managed to find the first segment, so you can at least watch that until they find it…I say the US pilot still sucks and they should just air the UK version over here…
