No, really

This constitutes excitement in our little household.

Jack, a music-loving puppet who entertains his pals at a rocking clubhouse, gets a visit from “The Daily Show” host Jon Stewart on the Feb. 2 episode that also features the debut of a video collaboration between the Flaming Lips’ Steven Drozd and former “Blues Clues” host Steve Burns).

Stewart “is a huge fan of the show,” says Adam Rudman of Highland Park’s Spiffy Pictures, which created “Jack’s.” “He watches the show with his kids every day.” Indeed, Stewart flew to Chicago a few months ago and spent an entire day at Spiffy’s studio filming his “Groundhog Day” episode.

“He was so great, we expected to be quoting lines from his show, but he was quoting lines from ours,” Rudman says.

I knew he was a fan. There’s also this (which also talks about the Return of Steve), this (which proves I’m not alone), and this (which could theoretically provide the basic case for a paper - or at least a lecture - on corporate media synergy in action).
