Bakkouz, they way I see it there were some efforts at comedy, especially this kind of satirical political humor. A number of Lebanese comedians on some channel that was closed were doing a great job.
What we have now is a number of really embarassaing attempts like with cbm and others.
Everyone else is just after the money.
I agree with you about democracy. I mean can you imagine what someone like Adel Imam can do with the material he gets EVERYDAY from the news alone if could speak!?
Jon Stewart is amazing. With all the material we have here in the middle east, how come we have no comedians like him.
He just cant stop hitting the nail on the head. Ironic,funny, amazing as usual
Sari, We do have some good comedians in the arab world, but i’m afriad we won’t have one of Stewart’s calibre until there is true democracy.

Jon Stewart is great. I feel he goes out of his way to bash President Bush, but neverthless, I can’t help laughing.
If you build a better mouse trap the terrorists will build a better mouse
