 The Daily Show - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Each show was capped off with a segment called "A Moment of Zen" that often showed random video clips of humorous and sometimes morbid interest such as a snake charmer pulling a snake out of his throat via his nostril.
The show does not follow normal rules of journalistic integrity, but much of the schtick of the program involves questioning whether or not establishment television news sources in the United States, notably the cable news channels CNN, MSNBC, and Fox News Channel, are holding themselves to high journalistic standards.
The Daily Show's coverage of Canadian federal elections also uses the "Indecision" label, but with a bilingual flair: the 2006 federal election was covered under the title of "Indecision/Indécision 2006", playing on the Canadian practice of labelling in both French and English to the point of redundancy.

 Chappelle's Show - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The show is notorious for its handling of the topic of race, and Chappelle's casual usage of the word "nigger/nigga".
The show also handles such topics as politics, the entertainment industry, celebrity, and music, all performed in a comedic fashion with a touch of surrealism.
After several segments showing Dave at home, missing being on TV (and having his friends, such as Big Boi, suddenly turn their backs on him), Chappelle returns to the show and confronts Wayne Brady.

 The Benny Hill Show
Hill's television career was launched in 1955 and his show ran, off and on, on the BBC until 1968 with a brief season with ATV in 1967.
Some of the BBC shows are fondly remembered for his many inspired and usually hilarious impersonations of such icons of British television such as Hughie Green (of the talent series Opportunity Knocks) and Alan Wicker of the travel/foreign correspondent series Wicker's World.
Indeed lechery and smuttiness were a hallmark of many of the shows, in which tall, beautiful girls were constantly being chased or ogled by Hill and a group of stereotypical males such as Henry McGee, Bob Todd, Jackie Wright and Nicholas Parsons.

 8.8: Note on the Road Show - Encyclopedia - Library - VC Experts
The central part of the marketing process is commonly called the "road show." It is through this often hectic one-to-three-week period that the financial community becomes acquainted with the company's offering.
Typically, a small team consisting of a few of the company's top executive officers and members of the managing underwriter group meet with large institutional investors and securities analysts and brokers, as well as potential underwriting syndicate members, in small or large groups, or on a one-to-one basis.
The marketing acumen and reputation of the road show team is often determinative of the success or failure of a given offering since investor interest at this point is typically an important factor in the eventual pricing of the offering.

 Best in Show (2000)   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
Trivia: The shot of the arena where the dog show is taking place is actually stock footage from the Jean-Claude Van Damme film Sudden Death (1995) which takes place at what is now the Mellon Arena where the Pittsburgh Penguins play, but at that point it was called the Civic Arena.
This is why the arena is surrounded by police cars which would be necessary in a terrorist situation, but not for a dog show.
Best in Show is a "mockumentary" made by the same team who brought you the also brilliant "This Is Spinal Tap".
