After Nov. 18th the Comedy Central must have implemented some serious changes. Youtube-dl is unable to even find the videos anymore: "Unable to extract mgid". Please look into this. Thank you very much.

I have the same problem. I think it's caused by the mtv locator, which is in parts used by the comedycentral locator #11148

This issue is already fixed and fix will be incorporated in the next version of youtube-dl.
