Stephen vs Stephen Did they just kill Stephen Colbert?→[More:] The persona, I mean.
Ooh, Twitter is a strange and cruel news medium.
Right?
Someone just sent me this long comment about he'd still do it, but pretty much everything he's ever said outside of being that Colbert says he'd move on.
I mean, he'll be great, but there will never be another Colbert. You have to be incredibly, validly sincere to be so charmingly insincere. People think he's real! Still!
Oh, endless wellspring of comedy, i will miss you.
RIP, Stephen Colbert.
Long live Stephen Colbert!
I guess everybody's got their "think pieces" on it now.
I wish someone would give Maria Bamford a show. And Garret Dillahunt. I may just be thinking of people I think would be pleasant, differently interesting company on a regular basis. Podcasts would be fine.
Who would you like to have a show?
Oh, and Richard E. Grant. He smiles with his whole head. Alan Cumming. I could just list people endlessly.
