How old is Colbert now though? He was putting in work during the Colbert Report days, once he got that Late Show gig he was able to just coast and do his thing.

People who watch CBS late night aren't coming for witty political satire, just easy going comedy and fun interviews with celebrities they like.


Could prob just put big Bang reruns on at that time and get higher ratings

Can't tell the last time I watched Jimmy Kimmel, Fallon or Colbert

No one on tv goes at Trump harder than Kimmel and O'Donnel.

I know Trump has tried to get Kimmel fired before.

I realize I’m in the minority, but Colbert’s humor never could get me the same way that Jon Stewart’s did. Much respect to him because he’s got one helluva following.
I feel you, I fukks with both tho. Jon is funnier that's probably why but Stephen is no where near as bipartisan as him so a lot of ppl dont like him because he comes off too left sometime. He has his moments tho

Honestly all of these late night shows are bland and weak.
I think it's just watered down because it's a national show.

I've heard stories about how good comedians were sort of handcuffed by being on popular tv shows.
Apparently guys like Jay Leno and Bob Saget had edgy humor in the 1980s before they got big.

Colbert was never really a "comedian" the way we think of guys who do stand up, but I do think he was pretty good exposing the ridiculousness of conservatives on The Colbert Report on Comedy Central. That was probably the best version of him, even though he was known on The Daily Show and to a lesser degree on The Dana Carvey Show.
