Craig Kilborn We Miss You


Craig Kilborn


Memory Lane

A lot of you missed the original Daily Show, hosted by Craig Kilborn.  He lampooned everyone, and unlike his successor (Jon Stewart) he never pandered,let alone wet his pants  over Liberal guests.  This is his last show; broadcast amidst Bill Clinton's impeachment hearings.  What ever happened to Craig Kilborn? Here's his bio:
  • 1986–1988: Play-by-play commentator for the Savannah Spirits of the Continental Basketball Association
  • 1990–1993: Sports Director at KCBA television in the Salinas/Monterey/Santa Cruz market of California
  • 1993–1996: Anchor of SportsCenter
  • 1996–1998: Host of The Daily Show
  • 1999–2004: Host of The Late Late Show
  • 2010: Host of The Kilborn File (fired 2012)

I enjoyed Kilborn.
