After writing and starring in many holly wood films, Jon Stewart decided to make his own talk show, The Daily Show, on the TV network . Very similar to to The Colbert Report. Stewart interviews politicians, actors, authors, etc. But he does his interviews as comedic yet opinionated and informative. My favorite interview was one when he interviews James Franco about his new movie '127 Hours.' Stewart and Franco are both having what seems to be a normal, funny conversation but it is in fact an interview and very funny at that. Hilliard mentions 'The Daily Show' and says, "The daily show' hosted by Jon Stewart, use comedy and satire to make their points. A guest is either interviewed or engages in a discussion or specified issues with the program personality" (266). Although Stewarts interviews are funny and sometimes sarcastic, they are all about real topics, and alot of it is improvised. It's like Stewart is giving the news in a comedic way. After all, Jon Stewart is a master when it comes to comedy and satire.
This is my favorite interview he conducted with James Franco. when i wrote the script it was relatively easy because there are only two different camera shots alternating between Stewart and his guest, in this case, James Franco. The dialogue was in a conversational form and alternated between Stewart and Franco. Jon Stewart has a bad habit of interrupting people which was the only difficulty i found while scripting the interview.
