The Late Show with Stephen Colbert

quote:

I was a little worried when I heard he would be ditching his "Colbert Report" persona. But wow, this show is great. Late night network tv is watchable again. It's great that he does more than just having one celebrity after another on the show as guests.

I'm not sure if I like the show in its entirety yet, but the two things he brought from Colbert were good choices

1) When he does that long riff on current events at his desk (without the persona is fine even thought that was hilarious).

2) Having real interesting guests which I find to be great. I bet there is at least some copying of this on other shows.

He's the best. I was worried how he would go from the report to late night and I think he's pulling it off so far. I've never really liked late night talk shows but I have really been enjoying the late show since he's been on.
