Anderson Cooper’s new daytime series begins today, and few talk shows have arrived with a better sense of the host in place. There are so many possible Katie Courics, it’s still anyone’s guess what her show will be, but where Couric seems to flounder and zig-zag, Cooper has cultivated a more positive sense of versatility. We’ve seen him report for days on end from war zones, stand up in hurricanes and – maybe most relevantly for his new syndicated adventure – get the giggles during the Ridiculist segment on CNN’s continuing AC360. (If you missed him cracking up about Gerard Depardieu peeing on a plane, it’s priceless: check it out here.)
