colbert monologue last night - Redraw
Defense: GOOD Colbert in a defensive role is a dynastic combination of silly-ness eclipsing well-roundedness. For a ship without Radar as a Cruiser Light, Colbert treads into her own.

It's honestly super refreshing to see Colbert actually challenge the president. Today he would crawl over a mile of busted glass just to stop someone from asking if Biden can draw a clock.
A few weeks ago I attended a taping in the audience. Wanted to see if I made it into the episode. Caught part of the show that night on the hotel TV. During that broadcast the camera showed a lot of Colbert.
Understanding the Context
The Ed Sullivan Theater under Colbert holds just shy of 400 people, and the audience at The Late Show is by far and away the largest audience in late night. That said, the show still overbooks. Get there.
Subreddit devoted to news, photos, memes, and gifs about the man, the myth, the legend, Stephen Colbert.
Colbert is a fun meme ship, but generally not recommended for most players. Highest theoretical DPM and excellent maneuverability is offset by poor ballistics, extremely vulnerable hull,.
Colbert's the only show I like, and I only watch the monologue and like half of his desk bits. Seth Meyers is okay - but Colbert is always worth it. Predictable/safe comedy is a bummer - I.
Key Insights
Colbert made us hold the applause, gave a very sad spoken goodnight and just quietly left the set, and then we were told to exit the theatre. Everyone was confused.
What Stewart and Colbert do most nights is convert civic villainy into disposable laughs. They prefer Horatian satire to Juvenalian, and thus treat the ills of modern media and politics as.
Colbert (and the other late night shows) is a sort of broad spectrum, lowest common denominator to appeal to the absolute broadest possible audience. That means watered down jokes that doesn't.
