Ah, Stephen Colbert..

yo. · 07-19-2010, 11:54 AM

I've been wanting to make this thread for a while now, sort of a tribute to his comedic pleasures, though it took me a while to get around to searching for videos..

Here's a good one to start:

The Colbert Report is pretty funny, not my favorite show out there, but still pretty funny.

yo. · 07-27-2010, 02:24 PM

Yeah, I know he's only reading a teleprompter half the time, but he himself has my kinda humor.
And yeah the writer/director or what ever isn't that great, but it's the best news show out there.

SmokeaJoint · 07-27-2010, 02:26 PM

Have you read his book I Am America And So Can You? Its funny, same humor as the show.

yo. · 07-27-2010, 03:51 PM

Na, I'm too cheap to purchase books

I've been trying to find a clip of a kinda old episode where he's talking to this anti NBA guy if I remember correctly, and the guys talking about how NBA players, being 7 ft tall and jumping that high and shit, he calls 'em "freaks of nature," and Colbert snaps back and says "Freaks of Nature??? ... I believe they prefer to be called African Americans!"

I laughed my ass off, and honestly thought he'd get some heat for it!! I mean come on, is that not a little racist?? But some how there's absolutely nothing about it on the web (that I can find.)

SmokeaJoint · 07-27-2010, 04:12 PM

There was one he did, on TV just last week. He was talking about the NY Nicks, and LeBron. He said something about them being called the Nickerbockers and said "dont they prefer to be called Nicker-Americans?" Same joke, different season I suppose.

yo. · 07-27-2010, 04:16 PM

^ Yeah, I saw that too. That's why I said their director/producer sucked, they repeat a lot of jokes just in slight different context. I hear the Daily Show with Jon Stewart has some of the same jokes as the Colbert Report, just with different targets

**SageTree** · 07-27-2010, 05:54 PM

you boiz where very busy today

**SageTree** · 07-27-2010, 05:54 PM

Glad you enjoy the place

Its because im out of weed Sage. I need something to do to distract myself during the hours I usually spend doing things stoned. Hopefully I will have more today or Friday and I can give the site a well deserved break for another week or so.

Just as I said, the next day the two shows both air their shows with the SAME topics, just different jokes.

Full Episode | July 27, 2010 - Kevin Kline | Colbert Report

I guess you can only go so far with political satire before you begin to repeat things.

yo. · 07-28-2010, 11:40 AM

I'm considering it coincidental that this happened (to this degree) right when I make this thread.

cantSEEme · 07-29-2010, 02:12 PM

colbert's the man.

yo. · 07-29-2010, 03:44 PM

Yeah I'm bout sick of his show though. Its just too much the same as Jon Stewarts...
Has he ever delved into stand up?

Štulic · 08-07-2010, 09:32 AM

TV shows are for Americans like breastfeeding is for babies.

yo. · 08-07-2010, 03:31 PM

Something I need but could do without?
Isn't that a little backwards?

SmokeaJoint · 08-08-2010, 01:32 PM

TV is gay, take it from this American.

yo. · 08-09-2010, 10:34 AM

I must agree. although it is a form of entertainment.
