They were discussing Kim Jong Il and how he may have nuclear capabilities. The little "story box" (where they put the logo of the story they cover) turned to a picture of Jong Il with the Kim Possible logo imposed beneath him (you know, just her name in the green font the show uses)

It got a fair number of laughs, and Stewart said that he had to have that one explained to him before the show. I guess he's not a fan (not that I'd expect him to be.) Apparently there are more people that know about KP in the older age groups than we think.

And Jon thinks it airs on either Nickelodeon or Noggin. I'm sure their parent company (well, partial parent company) loves that one.

I fell out of my chair when I first saw that. So unexpected, yet so hilarious.

Boy, I didn't know that a Liberal like Jon Stewart knew about KP. Also, him misplacing the show's location is very predictable and expected.:D

I'm more surprised that the 35+ year old writing staff had even heard of the show, but I guess some have kids.

I don't get it. What did that guy have to do with Kim Possible?

The first name of the Korean President (or Prime Minister or whatever) is Kim.
