Watch The Daily Show! it's a "fake" news show (as in it's basically making fun of news stories) but there have been many studies done that say people who watch the Daily Show know more about current issues than people who watch Fox News and CNN. its hilarious. if it wasn't for that show, i wouldn't be interested in politics whatsoever.

The Daily Show rocks :D Some of the sections are hilarious!

As for the poll, is it sad I watch all but Sky News and The Politics Show? I used to watch the Politics Show and all...

pretty much everyone on the daily show is hilarious. the colbert report is great too, but that's not as much news as it is just making fun of political pundits and ego-maniacs.

See now I don't entirely understand why people are saying never mind the buzzcocks. I thought NTMB was an entertain programme which talks about characters from television, music and film; not (usually) politics/ians.

I can understand why they're saying Have I got news for you, though. (Along with 8oo10c).

Mock the Week. Have I Got News For You. Dead Ringers. Never Mind the Buzzcocks.

That's all I know for now.

EDIT: NMTB isn't political, but it sometimes has political people on and they mock them, so meh. Might aswell

colbert's hilarious too. he originally came from the daily show and got his own knock-off program. to be honest, i didn't think that show would last, but now its almost as popular.

I wouldn't count those parody shows as political shows, doubly so for Never mind the Buzzcocks and whoever put that as they have nothing to do with politics. Out of those I watch Mock the week, Dead Ringers, Sky News, BBC News and The politics show. I also watch The daily politics and have I got news for you which you missed off the list.
