So tonight "news" hosts Bill O'Reilly from the O'Reilly Factor and Stephen Colbert from the Colbert Report will visit each others shows. I don't know about you, but I've been hearing nothing but hype about this since it was announced last week. Ah, the stuff youtube dreams are made of.

I can't actually figure out why they're pulling the stunt. It's not sweeps and Colbert's show, where he pretty much created an alter ego that permanently mocks O'Reilly, has been on for more than a year. So still the shows be any good?

The short answer is maybe. When John Stewart, of the Daily show which precedes the Colbert Report, appeared on CNN's now defunct Crossfire he pretty much annihilated the bow tie off one of the hosts Tucker Carlson (last seen on Dancing with the Stars..eliminated on the first round. Yes, I watch Dancing with the Stars).

But O'Reilly and his people will probably be prepared for the 'ol Colbert one-two (One, pretend you agree with whatever your guest says. Two, get them really excited to have an ally, and make them look like a loser).

Guess we'll just have to wait and see. I, personally, would happily welcome them on the next season of Dancing.

The O'Reilly Factor is on @ 8pm on Fox News
The Colbert Report is on @ 11:30pm on the Comedy Network
