To echo what my buddy Gina said recently, there are so many reasons to love Jon Stewart.



A few weeks back, I channel-surfed past a couple different shows featuring CGI-enabled talking animals. I struck me that there's a tolerance threshold for this stuff, but it varies depending on the particular animal. I worked up this handy list to help others navigate the treacherous waters of "cute" verbal critters:
  • cats & dogs - 30 seconds
  • kangaroos - 90 seconds
  • lizards - 2 minutes
  • cows - 5 minutes
  • horses - 22 minutes plus commercials (includes mules)
  • pigs - 85 minutes
Your mileage may vary.
