Now THAT is how you respond to a comedian!

I am way more likely to drink Pom now.

Excellent bit of marketing.

It's still snake oil though.

Nah. Not snake oil. It's just a fruit juice. You're thinking of those "Extenz" schlong-enlarging pills.

Snake oil is the best kind for stir frying. It has the highest smoke point

I drink pomegranate juice but can't stand the prices Pom charges for it. But I must say, their response was priceless. At least they didn't resort to suing . . .

It's just two episodes in and already I am anticipating the weekly dose of John Oliver. HBO was smart to grab him after his summer stint in place of Jon Stewart last year.

I'm a pretty worldly guy (despite being an American raised in the South) and just the fact that he challenged his audience to spend 10 minutes actually caring about elections on the other side of the world won me over.

Judging by the three top 15 videos in a week, I'm guessing I'm not alone in this sentiment.

So good that we get this in the UK as well.
