Line 57:
** Minor, but a nerve that Sarah Palin touched: Pit bulls as vicious murderers. They're not actually any more aggressive than, say, golden retrievers, so unless you think goldies are dangerous, he's probably going to get very mad at you.
* [[Better Than a Bare Bulb]]: In response to CNN putting together a discussion panel to discuss simply what they'll discuss after the 2009 election in NY's District 23rd, [http://www.thedailyshow.com/watch/tue-november-3-2009/indecision-2009---reindecision-2008-and-beyond TDS's ensuing speculation-on-speculation panel provides four full minutes of lampshading goodness (starting near the 5min mark)...]

* [[Big No]]: [http://www.thedailyshow.com/video/index.jhtml?videoId=189149&title=gaffe-in Just one example].
** Subverted on [http://www.thedailyshow.com/watch/mon-august-23-2010/the-parent-company-trap 8/23/2010], where Jon starts going into the [[Big No]], but the view doesn't change to the dramatic camera angle. He turns to a different camera to try again... and another... and another...
Line 258:
* [[Jewish Complaining]]: Some of the jokes.
* [[Jews Love to Argue]]: Often joked about, and once they captured empirical evidence on camera.
* [["Join the Army," They Said]]: Rob Riggle apparently joined the Marines because he thought he could [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mplEt-7HNR8 kill flaming demons with a sword.]
* [[Joisey]]: Jon Stewart is from New Jersey (he even got to [[Crowning Moment of Awesome|introduce]] [[Bruce Springsteen]] at the Kennedy Center Honors!) and will often use a parody Joisey accent.
Line 299:
* [[Mr. Fanservice]]: Have you seen the movie ''[[Playing by Heart]]''?
** Also [http://www.thedailyshow.com/watch/wed-january-26-2011/state-of-the-union-2011---correspondent-rebuttal here,] when Larry Wilmore reminds modern viewers what Jon looked like back in 1999. Rowr.
* [[Ms. Fanservice]]: While there's little doubt that [[Attack of the Show!|Olivia Munn]] would be this whether or not that was the plan, a veritable tempest in a teapot arose when a feminist ([[Your Mileage May Vary|possibly or possibly not]] of the [[Straw Feminist|silly variety]]) accused the ''TDS'' staff of sexism, saying they only hired her to try out for her sexiness. While most agreed that Munn's first two segments [[So Okay It's Average|left something to be desired]], her third segment (a field assignment in Arizona) was [[Growing the Beard|enough of an improvement]] that Slate, at least, said she warranted a little bit of patience.
** It's worth noting that this is the exact same complaint that gave her something of a [[Broken Base]] among ''[[Attack of the Show!]]'' fans, which still lingers after several years of her hosting.
* [[Muppet|Muppets]]: A [[Running Gag]] that when former Massachusetts Governor Mitt Romney or former GOP Chairman [[Awesome McCoolname|Michael Steele]] are mentioned, a clip of a similar-looking Muppet (Guy Smiley and the hapless restaurant patron, respectively) will be shown.
** The Muppet!Steele became a guest on April 7, 2010. [[Hilarity Ensues]].
Line 440:
'''Jon:''' See you in a minute, Stephen!<br />
'''Stephen:''' ''I will have my zvengeance!''}}
* [[Short Title: Long Elaborate Subtitle]]: Many of the guests' books.
* [[Shout-Out]]: [http://www.thedailyshow.com/watch/mon-january-4-2010/the-best-f--king-news-team-ever---tiger-woods--faith A truly hilarious one.] [[Two Words: Obvious Trope|Five words:]] {{spoiler|John Oliver as a [[Avatar|Na'vi]]}}.
** Jon's impression of Dick Cheney depicts him as Burgess Meredith's version of [[Batman (TV series)|The Penguin]].
