Colbert appearance

[mjs9153]

Yes, that ridiculous dancing is beyond annoying.. Feels forced and stupid.. Who knows maybe Letterman will get bored and come back, cuz so far this guy ain't making it..

GNT, you are correct. I can understand most not agreeing on this. I am glad that others enjoyed it even though I did not. Sometimes when I don't enjoy something, I feel embarrassed for it -- a good example is Insomnia, I really felt that wasn't such a great book; yet, I always feel good when I find someone who liked the book, because then I feel that at least someone found value in it and could see what I couldn't see.

On the Trump joke: at first I wasn't sure who they were referring to, but then I did realize. DiO'Bolic's twist on that made me laugh, though. Actually, that should have been the punch line to the actual joke -- they should have said at the end they meant her. (I wonder if that was a planned routine.)

In reference to another comment: as far as I know, he is not doing the Colbert-conservative thing any longer, but honestly, it seems as if he still at least has allowed the voice and demeanor of that character to remain intact, which makes things very confusing. Although, I really didn't watch his other show, so perhaps someone who has might argue that he actually is different and this is simply the real him. Hard for me to figure out, to be honest. I wish him well in his show, but I truly hope he becomes more like Letterman in terms of interviewing top guests like King and, say, someone like Bill Gates (imagine him being silly with someone like the latter; that would be a waste of time).

I loved the stack of books as well. An entertaining visualization of his literary activity.

Now if only he could have gotten Stephen King to sign them all! (Poor guy would have writer's cramp!)

I thought maybe it was just me, but I found him to be quite gaunt looking.

Leland Gaunt?

He is not going to shake the questions that he is

Glad I just watched the clip.

I like Colbert and I enjoyed the interview, SK seemed to be quite giddy and happy, he was enjoying himself.
The thing with any celebrity guest appearance, it seems like it's never long enough unless it's someone you don't like!

He did choose to lose weight after his accident to lower pressure on his injuries.

I felt that he was a little on the light side too the other day and will be baking him fattem-up's henceforth.

...this makes sense, and I could learn from it myself dammit, all the extra adipose tissue I'm lugging around...more weight causes increased load on joints, muscles, ligaments and tendons...

...considering all the title puns being bounced around-all I can say is....I'll be hanging out at Beach World after I unleash The Cat From Hell on y'all, enjoying some drunken Fireworks with other Survivor Types...

I thought Mr. King's wonderful humor came through for true. I think Mr. Colbert is still very nervous trying to handle this huge venue.

I thought the interview was fine....Sure, someone could make an argument that it may have been a little forced: From what I can tell from the few SK orations I have heard (including "LTs Theory Of Pets"), King has a natural wit but it is usually very very dry....I mean, like, Sahara dry!

This exchange was very schtick, but SK did a good job not sounding contrived and thats what made it work

I like how Stephen handled Colbert, he got on the same wavelength as him which can't have been easy. I didn't like Colbert but he was still better than that French twit who interviewed him at the Grand Rex who was acting like he thought the audience was there for him.

Remember this?

...I did, and I'm fretting about him too....the nurse in me perked right up with the "touch" on the desk....he's very drawn...

Yep-yep . . .
