RSS Feeds for Full Episodes of The Colbert Report and The Daily Show

Recently Comedy Central yanked The Daily Show and The Colbert Report off of Hulu. I started watched these shows on Hulu because it provided RSS feeds for the full episodes, while Comedy Central has only ever had segment/clip feeds. Luckily, the shows’ sites have feed-like AJAH pages that are easily massaged into a true RSS feeds, so here are substitute feeds. Share and enjoy:

The Colbert Report Full Episode RSS Feed

The feeds update every hour, although the shows only appear the morning after their cable broadcast. The shell, XSL (and sed!) source can be viewed in the full-episode feed directory.

  1. Awesome work, thank you. One concern, I looked at the build script (build.sh) and see that for the Colbert Report the URLs selected were 0,1,3 we miss page 2. for The Daily Show we use 0,1,2. I think that we should do 0,1,2 in both cases or 0,1,2,3 in both cases

    Thank you so much for this feed now I won’t miss the shows since Hulu no longer can ensure I see them.

  2. Thanks for the sharp eyes! I’ve fixed the script so both feeds show weeks 0,1,2.
