In light of the recent NFL ref strike, The Daily Show's own correspondents have also "gone on strike" and have therefore "been replaced" by actors of a much higher caliber.

Anyway, picture yourself at an exclusive party, sitting around the table with all of your frenemies, and someone raises their glass to make a toast and says the following: you know what everyone, CHEERS TO ME!
