Since thedailyshow and thecolbertreport have changed their interface significantly over the previous week, their formats have changed too. You can use the -F option to see the current formats:

You can use -f vhttp-400, or, if you want to fall back to the best available version, -f vhttp-400/best now.

Thanks a lot and sorry for the disturbance. I did not try -F option, as my scripts were having -f.
