In a hilarious riff on the recent lockout of National Football League referees, and the outrage that has recently exploded among football fans, THE DAILY SHOW's John Oliver and his fellow team of reporters decided to go on strike themselves, only to be replaced by Sir Patrick Stewart and and other show business legends. Check out Stewart's appearance in the clip below!

Multiple Emmy-winner "The Daily Show with Jon Stewart," the network's unique news parody series, this week received its tenth consecutive Emmy for Outstanding Variety Series, the longest streak in Emmy history, and its eighth Emmy for Outstanding Writing For A Variety Series. This brings the grand total of Primetime Emmys for "The Daily Show" to 18. The program is also a two-time winner of the prestigious Peabody(R) Award for Excellence in Broadcasting.
