The Daily Show New URL

[HalosGhost]

The Daily Show has switched to use a new domain: thedailyshow.cc.com

So, for example:

% ytdl 'http://thedailyshow.cc.com/full-episodes/25b7li/march-3--2014---seth-macfarlane' --verbose
[debug] System config: []
[debug] User config: []

I imagine that supporting the new URL should be enough to get it working again, but I cannot be sure.

I have hit the same issue as well.

I have a similar domain request:

www.thedailyshow.cc.com doesn't work in Canada anymore - it was working till yesterday. The new URLs seem to be

http://watch.thecomedynetwork.ca/the-daily-show-with-jon-stewart/full-episodes

and

http://watch.thecomedynetwork.ca/the-colbert-report/full-episodes

I tried to massage the source code for half an hour today, but couldn't make it work. Could you please add support for these URLs? Thanks.

@mburo Sorry, your problem seems different from the one in this issue. In order for the issue tracker to work (for example, automatic closing etc.), new issues should be posted as new issues. Please create a new issue. Don't worry, creating issues is free.
