(i mean he left in 2003, not that he started after 2004)
he fit in pretty seamlessly with everyone else from that era who went on to have as much success as is possible in comedy, i wonder if he's sad

you know I might've had Mo Rocca and young John Oliver confused
pretty much everyone on the Daily Show kinda fit the same mold back then, didn't they?

I had no idea John Oliver was around back then. I thought he came on way later.
He wasn't. He was playing the part of "Steve Carell" last night.

he got a gig as a CBS correspondent and had a kid's show on Saturday mornings, so I think he's fine

Oliver apparently joined in 2006 - I thought he was like...2011
he looked about 14 in the clip they showed

It's going to be such a shock when John Oliver is once again getting consistently interrupted with whoops and hollers.
