He looks kind of uncomfortable and not as quick as I remember him being. Is he psyching himself out? |

Date: November 11th, 2015 11:27 PM Author: awkward theater stage I don't know because I haven't really watched it but I assume he's doing a million times better than Trevor Noah on The Daily Show. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=3042534&forum_id=2...id.#29164095) |

Date: November 11th, 2015 11:29 PM Author: brindle legal warrant stead tbf, your average unhinged quotepumo could do better than trevor noah. i watched a full daily show ep for the first time in like 8 years recently and good god, he is really terrible.

Date: November 11th, 2015 11:31 PM Author: awkward theater stage The show is absolutely cringeworthy now. He is awful. Comedy Centrsl must be freaking the fuck out. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=3042534&forum_id=2...id.#29164119) |

Date: November 11th, 2015 11:32 PM Author: brindle legal warrant stead is the boring guy who filled in for colbert still there? he wasn't funny, but at least he didnt make you truly cringe like noah does.
maybe he's funny in africa or something, but he comes off as a fob. like he just doesn't quite get anything that's being written for him, much less have any comedic input of his own. |

Date: November 11th, 2015 11:36 PM Author: awkward theater stage I don't know who the dude who filled in for Colbert is. I do know that Noah is fucking horribly bad. Like the guests are trying to feed him funny material in a desperate attempt to make the interview not incredibly shitty and he doesn't even get the humor they're trying to feed him and instead goes for a punchline that a 13 year old would come up with.

Date: November 11th, 2015 11:38 PM Author: brindle legal warrant stead like I said, he comes off as straight fobby. if they were going to get a black they should've made a safe choice and chosen somebody from america, but i guess they didn't want "black humor" to dominate the white lib agenda, so they chose someone who didn't really know what the fuck is going on instead.

Date: November 11th, 2015 11:28 PM Author: brindle legal warrant stead theres something about the high profile late night slot that has managed to suck the soul out of everyone besides carson (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=3042534&forum_id=2...id.#29164100) |

Date: November 11th, 2015 11:29 PM Author: awkward theater stage I legit thought he had the potential to be Carson-esque. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=3042534&forum_id=2...id.#29164107) |
|
Date: November 11th, 2015 11:30 PM Author: brindle legal warrant stead even letterman, who was 180 back in the day, turned into a zombie once he got the really big slot. and he was experienced at already hosting a typical format late night talk show.

Date: November 11th, 2015 11:33 PM Author: awkward theater stage Yeah but my thinking was that Colbert was more of a Carson-type person where Letterman was always going a different route. Colbert may still get there but the little bit I've seen hasn't been promising. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=3042534&forum_id=2...id.#29164143) |

Date: November 11th, 2015 11:36 PM Author: brindle legal warrant stead colbert is too much of an actor. he can put on a funny schtick, but he's too nice and easy going to really fight the late night juggernaut. too eager to please his late gen x/boomer demographic. at his core carson always had a kind of subtle "lol fuck you" about him, even when most people mistakenly saw him as an uncle type figure.

Date: November 11th, 2015 11:42 PM Author: awkward theater stage Yeah I don't know. I thought Colbert had a sharp wit and a bit of a mean steak while appearing outwardly very likeable. So basically a lot like Carson. Having said that I'm watching his show now and it is sucking. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=3042534&forum_id=2...id.#29164221) |

Date: November 11th, 2015 11:48 PM Author: brindle legal warrant stead nah, Colbert is a straight softy. probably one of the most genuinely nice people in all of show business, which works to his detriment in a late night host role when he can't play schtick. see e.g. the biden interview, where he basically tears up and fuckin hugs it out after honestly believing biden's carefully calculated slime stump talk show spiel (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=3042534&forum_id=2...id.#29164274) |

Date: November 11th, 2015 11:34 PM Author: brindle legal warrant stead the hour later is a bit different. a kooky dood can have a nice little show there--conan, kilborn, letterman. but nobody has succeeded in the big show though (which isn't big anymore) aside from cormac himself.

Date: November 12th, 2015 2:58 AM Author: lavender deer antler His opening monologue is actually pretty similar to his old colbert report. i'm actually surprised. he must've brought over a lot of the same writers. i think the difference is he has to interview a lot more banal celebs.
