The Daily Show with Jon Stewart Presents Earth (The Audiobook): A Visitor's Guide to the Human Race Audiobook

" I enjoyed this audiobook, but didn't think it was spectacular. It made me smirk alot, but rarely had me laughing out loud. Creative and interesting, but not something I'd ever listen to again... "

" brilliant, just brilliant. i think the audiobook is probably better than the text because jon stewart, john oliver, wyatt cenac and samantha bee are all reading. hilarious satire about human life and earth in general. read this (no...listen to it!)! "

" Some laugh out loud funny moments, but not as many as I would have hoped. An interesting concept for a book. I skimmed most of it since it was due back at the library, but I don't think I'll be trying to get it again to really sit down and read the rest. "

" Entertaining but nothing to write home about. A bit disappointing and not nearly as good as the first book, America. "

" It's exactly what you would expect. snarky comments about everything. I am enjoying it. "

" Kind of disapointing. But more importantly not so funny. There were some humorous moments (The photo/idea of the playbill for the failed "The Diahrrea of Anne Frank" play), but mostly it didn't stand up to "America". Something was missing. The idea is good - a guide for Earth to aliens in the future after we've destroyed ourselves. It just fell flat. "

" I thought this book was hilarious. I really enjoyed the 'alien' insights into the often ignored but completely strange human condition. "

" Some very funny bits, though a bit more sporadically humorous than America (the book). Difficult to read in long segments, but it makes a great bathroom book. So, I guess what I am saying is that you probably don't want to borrow my copy. "

" Another funny offering from the team at the Daily Show, though I thought America: The Book was much funnier. Still this book is a great summary of all the silly things we hold dear and our history. You will laugh outloud and most of the material "

" Too funny. The audio book is awesome with bits by Daily Show Correspondents that are hilarious. Short for an audio book, it was humorous and one of the few audio books my husband has listened to with me all the way through. "

" laugh out loud funny--in parts "

" I both snickered and howled with laughter. Humans should do that about themselves much more often. "

" Very funny book! Must listen to it on audio cd to appreciate the humor of the book! If I had read the written version, I probably would've never finished it. "

" My teenage boys and I listened to this in the car on a road trip to Niagara Falls. It was funny! "

" I thoroughly enjoyed America (The Book). I had high hopes for this one--and, while I wasn't disappointed, I have to state that it didn't quite live up to the quality of its predecessor. "

" Very disappointing follow-up to America (The Book). I know the adage of, "it's funny because it's true" makes a lot of things funny, but not always. This book was filled with lame, obvious jokes and inane "chatter" in each section. Good idea but immensely flawed in execution. "

" Entertaining. Worth reading for fans of the Daily Show. "

" Not bad. Reminds me of HHGG. "

" Lots of satire and off-the-wall humor. Not exactly "laugh-a-minute" but fun. "

" It had it's moments, but not all that great. "

" Entertaining, but at times too easy. There were a few gems, of course, but overall it was a little disappointing. Note that I listened to the audio book, and perhaps the hard-copy's visual presentation is important. "

" Wildly entertaining. I popped it in at 6am when I headed on a road trip and was in stitches. No need for caffeine to stay awake! "

" I LOL a few times "

" even when read by the cast and narrated by Sigourney Weaver, it just wasn't very funny. I don't think I laughed out loud even once. very disappointed. "

" This book is completely hilarious! It also points to some truisms about our world and it's history. I cheated and listened to the audio book, which I'm about ready to listen to the whole thing again. "

" listened to audio and read book. i had high hopes after America (i loved that audio book and still listen to it for a laugh) and while this was funny and had its moments, i didn't find it as funny. still highly recommend for fans of the show. "

" This book is really funny. I haven't laughed this hard since I watched "The Hangover". "

" Meh. It was funny in spots, but pure silliness can only carry a book so far . .. "

" Hilarious, as always. America (the book) is still my favorite, but still. My tummy always hurts after reading these books, in the best possible way. "

" I went with the audio version simply because I knew having the folks from the Daily Show read this would make it that much better. <br/> <br/>I was correct. <br/> <br/> "

" I listened to the audiobook which provides a very funny 3 hours of political satire and the off-hand humor of the Daily Show. I will have to get the book, though, to enjoy the accompanying sidebars and graphics. "

" Amusing, but it gets old after a while. "

" It was pretty funny throughout. Not something I would actually recommend 'reading' but listening to on audiobook when stuck in traffic? Definitely. "

" I agree with many reviews I've seen. If you like the Daily Show you'll like this. It also confirmed for me that this kind of humor and satire works best via audio and in short spurts...say about 22 minutes a night. "

" Excellent bathroom book. I don't think I'll ever look at Tang the same way, though. "

" very funny, if you like his humor.<br/><br/>&quot;If necessity is the mother of invention, laziness has to be its drunken step-father.&quot; "

" Didn't read the whole thing. Humor was hit-or-miss with no real agenda just an ultra-stereotypical liberal bent. I had some good laughs though and if you're a fan of the Daily Show you'll probably like this book at least as much. "
