NEW YORK -- Jon Stewart and Stephen Colbert are the latest late-night hosts to announce that they are returning to the air.
Comedy Central's "The Daily Show With Jon Stewart" and "The Colbert Report" will begin production Jan. 7 without the shows' writing staffs. The network will "continue to hold out hope for a swift resolution to the current stalemate that will enable the shows to be complete again," it said a statement.

I swear to Christ I do not know how anyone can be happy that these men are returning to work...crossing the Labor line...without the writers.
Oh, yippee! My favorite show! Shall we pop popcorn or shall we make malts? It's so fun. I'm so excited. It is, after all, all about me.
These writers have been out of work for MONTHS now, including over Christmas.
I have said it before, I will say it again, and I will keep saying it until it registers...perhaps with an erstwhile air traffic controller...or John Edwards gets elected or I emigrate: AMERICAN LABOR WILL GAIN COLLECTIVELY, OR IT WILL GO DOWN ONE BY ONE.
I am inexpressibly disappointed in Jon Stewart and Stephen Colbert.
