I’m looking for a specific episode December 4 2012.

The episode has a really funny segment about Low-T and Low-O that seems to have been wiped from the internet. Internet archive has it but it’s not watchable in that format.

Guest for 10/24

Hi all! I have tickets for the 10/24 taping and it looks like they excluded that day from the guest list release. In your experience does that mean it’s either a huge name or can it be the show is going to be cancelled that night?

Can we like start a GoFundMe to buy the rights to Stephen Colbert's character Stephen Colbert and give them to him as a gift so he can do his old character again?

That shit would totally rule right?

help finding sentimental clip now that the CC website is gone?

A dear friend and coworker of mine who passed away this spring absolutely loved the “blown away by the USA - Who’s riding my coattails now” bit from April 21, 2009 - it’s Colbert mocking a senators patriotic album

She would always sing “I thank god for freedom, beef and the constitution” and it took me ages to find the episode it was from- I’d play it from time to time on the Comedy Central website just for a laugh and to remind me of her

I’m not tech savvy and can’t seem to find any site legal or not that has the clip and I don’t know how to do any fancy torrent or downloading

Does anyone have the clip of this segment or know a link to this episode? 😢 season 5 episode 53, the guest is Mike kryzewski

update: FOUND! a literal angel sent me a message and helped track it down im so so grateful to know this wonderfully stupid bit is still in the world 😭thank you thank you thank you!

I used to think Colbert was a saint, but last night he told the president to step down.

That's all.

Why does YouTube not have new videos from Colbert/Fallon/Kimmel/Myers??

I’ve been watching late night shows on YouTube the day the air for quite some time. In the last 2 weeks there have been 0 new videos out. It’s weird, I know there is not a strike going on. Anyone know why?!

Remembering a monologue bit by an older gentleman with a German accent describing the futility of mankind. He was on probably five times? I'd like to rewatch and transcribe his monologues.

[Controversial & Serious] Did Stephen Colbert ever force himself onto a woman to kiss her during his show in the 2000s?

I don't know if this is a fever dream or not but I definitely remember an episode with two ladies on the show, and Stephen Colbert grabbed one and suddenly kissed her.

I saw it when I was in my early teens, thinking it was weird, and I remember mom gasping. For reference, this would've been during his 1 800 OOPS JEW phase.

I doubt Colbert has any intention to do something like this again, but I still feel it's important to confirm whether or not this happened. Does anyone have any links?

Why hasn't Stephen talked about Gaza?

It's kind of depressing, he used to have an edge and tackle the tough stuff, now it's almost all movie stars and when he does have a political figure on it's all soft & gentle, like his kid gloves interview w Liz Cheney.

I know that this murderous orgy of revenge killing and carpet bombing of civilians that is going on in Gaza is difficult to know how to approach for many reasons but just pretending it's not happening so you don't offend your advertisers is, well, cowardly.

Now that John Stewart is retired, Stephen has evolved into a mainstream soft jocular typical late night host and Bill Maher has gone libertarian/MAGA there's nobody out there pushing the edges of progressive political humor anymore.

Anyone out there seeing any fresh, sharp, edgy comedians we should keep an eye on? Because there is a huge vacuum right now, and at a time when we really need someone like the old Stephen and John to step up and take the mantle.

Shrimp Taint Clip

I'm looking for the clip, "The Colbert Report: Untaint My Shrimp" from April 19, 2010. Yes, it's specific, but it made me laugh so hard that I cried, and my 13yo just learned what the taint is so now I need to show that clip to him so he can laugh so hard he cries too. I was massively pregnant with him when that clip aired, and I feel like it's come full circle.

It's not on the CC site, not on YouTube, and it's not on Prime. I could barely even find a reference to it and thought I was imagining the whole thing when I found a reference in a random article on Eater.com. Can anyone link me? Help me make my kid laugh until his stomach hurts.

Does anyone go back and rewatch this show?

I'm thinking about downloading old The Daily Show and CR and syncing them so I can watch them like I used to do but I have a feeling it isn't going to that great with all the old news

Just wondering if anyone watches old episodes are they still entertaining?

Who am I thinking of??

So, I thought I knew what Greg Daniels looked like, but just saw a pic of him and he is not the person I am thinking in my head. I have been scouring sites all night and I can't place this particular actor/host's name- who I thought was Greg Daniels. In my brain, he has maybe hosted The Daily Show or Colbert or something like that but is mostly behind the scenes. This person looks a lot like Steven Weber (will include a pic of Steven) but the person I am thinking of is NOT Steven Weber, he just looks similar. And no, it is not John Stewert either. I don't know if it is the Mandela Effect in my head but this whole time, I thought this person was Greg Daniels! Sort of shaggy dirty blonde hair, sort of longer like Steven Weber's hair from Mom. Who am I thinking of????

Looking for a specific clip

Hello all, I have this very specific memory of a Colbert Report clip from probably a decade ago, the whole joke is he reads the first line of A Tale of Two Cities ("it was the best of times") and then starts celebrating how great the times are because he didn't read ahead to the next line ("it was the worst of times). I don't remember what year this was or what point he was trying to prove but if anyone knows what I'm talking about I really want to find it.
