Phonearl Good start, but then it gets ruined

LouHomey From my favorite movies..

Tedfoldol everything you have heard about this movie is true.

Bob This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.

TJ Prins In 2005 Comedy Central had raked in some Emmys through their popular satirical news program: The Daily Show. Comedy Central began looking to expand the franchise, and they decided to give Stephen Colbert (a senior correspondent on the Daily Show) his own late night news program titled "The Colbert Report", and the result is a Knock-Out.I first tuned into the report in late 2008 when a friend of mine was watching it on TV, and I have to say the show really packed a punch.From its charming writers to the sketchy comedic Colbert himself, the show will keep you glued to the TV. The writers creativity mix with Stephens charm and magnetic personality so well I felt as if I was trying a martini for the first time. Whether Colbert is repelling down from a rope onto the set, or filling his seats with Iraq war vets and giving them free beer while Joe Biden is handing out hot dogs, the Colbert Report is definitely one show that will put a smile on your face as you lay down to sleep.One thing I do like about the Colbert Report (as well as the Daily Show) is that it is available online for free at their website. Even current episodes are posted as soon as they air on TV, so you don't even need comedy central to watch it. It is also available on XboX Live as well as iTunes.So whether your looking for a laugh, some serious politics, or just a sexy hot dog man dancing in front of Joe Biden, this show is definitely for you!

GTDMAC The Colbert Report started as a "Daily Show" spin off and is now an Emmy award winning cash cow for Comedy Central. Unlike the comedy team format of the Daily Show the Colbert Report is basically a combination of conservative radio/TV punditry and the National Lampoon embodied in the personage of Sir Dr. Stephen T. Colbert, DFA. The wit is sharp, the dialogue is crisp and the talent is evident. Not every gag works but the overall message is the same: Beware of bears!Colbert is fearless in his pursuit of truthiness in our society. One way he does this is to invite the most interesting guests rather than the most popular or most entertaining. Guests can range from Paul McCartney to George Will to Neil Degrasse Tyson. The interviews can be pretty interesting but his style varies depending on whether the guest is a McCartney or a George Will. Chief Editor Joe Quesada of Marvel Comics will come on to announce the death of Captain America to the world and present Stephen Colbert with Captain America's shield. Viggo Mortensen dons his LOTR Aragorn costume and presents Dr. Stephen with Anduril, Flame of the West. The guests really enjoy playing with the gags and when Stephen gets Queen Nor of Jordan to knight him with Anduril it really doesn't get much better than this on video today.So yes, this show is usually far more entertaining than the standard cable fare and you actually might learn something while watching it.

DKosty123 This spin from the Daily Show actually originally had another aim- Stephen Colbert wanted to imitate a guy on FOX NEWS known for the "No Spin" Zone. Unfortunatey the idea failed for some basic reasons.(1) Colbert is obviously a Democrat which shows quite quickly when you watch about 1 or 2 of these shows.(2) The "No Spin Zone" will attack Democrats & Republicans who do stupid things. Colbert is strictly hands off the Democrats.(3) The format got worn out very quickly when the Democrats took power, so the humor no longer takes chances or has a edge like when Bush & the Republicans had power.The word got out quickly as Comedy Central moved this & the Daily show to a less attractive time slot as soon as O'Bama took power. The gig is up, and that is THE WORD on Colbert.

mklasr The thing that makes this show so great is that it's really a combination of many former Comedy Central Shows. In addition to all of the shows which occupied the 11:30 pm Eastern time spot (including "Daily Show" episodes from the previous night), we must remember shows like "Crossballs" (formidable opponent), "Primetime Glick" (having well-intentioned, poorly informed host), and Mr. Subliminal, (the word of the day.) I liked Glick and Mr. Subliminal, and I liked the premise of Crossballs, although there was something missing from each. I think that the missing element was...truthiness. Wait a second, IMDb! Are you saying that you don't consider "truthiness" to be a word? That's it, IMDb, you're dead to me! Now, let's see, the clipboard is full so I need to take someone off. How about Paul Tsongas? Tsongas, it's your lucky day. If you were still alive, you'd no longer be dead to me.My favorite part is his running gags. For example, "Better Know a district" only has 434 parts because California's 50th "never existed to him." I think it happened when Randy "Duke" Cunningham had to resign in disgrace. He's doing satire, and yet he can keeps his story straight. The personalities that he mocks can't even do that! He's doing a better job at satirizing them than they are at being themselves. Also, does anyone remember the "Bewitched" movie? I myself liked it, I mean how can you not like a movie that stars both members of "The Ambiguously Gay Duo?" Stephen Colbert's character was explaining to Will Ferrell how much "Katmandu" tanked, in an effort to convince him into dropping his movie aspirations for a TV show. Well, "Bewitched" failed to crack $100 Million at the box office, and even won a Golden Raspberry Award. "The Colbert Report," and "The Office" (Can you honestly say that you recognize any of Steve Carell's co-stars? Plus, it's even a remake!!!) are to the "Bewitched" movie what the "Bewitched" TV show inside the movie was to the "Katmandu" movie inside the movie. Speaking of which, can anyone name another movie which had 2 of its actors get their own shows beginning the next fall? "How I met your Mother" and "Numbers" both featured offspring from "Harold and Kumar go to White Castle," but neither actor can quite be considered to have the lead. Anyway, instead of having a no-name actress as his leading co-star, Colbert just had words. And they still upstage him! Now, you might be wondering how Will Ferrell and Nicole Kidman did as a team. Remember that Raspberry award? They won it for worst on screen COMBINATION. And that's your word of the day.
