Another white male. What happened to all the talk about a woman taking Letterman's place? This pick sure happened quickly.

Colbert's white male privilege sickitates me.

I can't stand that lopsided liberal jackass.

They dumping him fast. I watched him for a few seconds last night. Letterman looks tired.

I know Carson was really a lib, so with a grain of salt I think Fallon's show so far, reminds me of a younger Carson/Tonight Show.

Actually no, Carson was not a lib. He was a 'moderate' republican that supported Reagan quietly.

I don't see it. Do the execs know that Colbert is playing a character?

So they replaced a douche with a turd sandwich?

That's still not going to make me watch...

Huh. Until seeing this thread and reading about him I had no idea he considers himself a liberal. I found a quote from him saying that. I don't watch his show often, but am always amused when I do. He's a funny guy. I figured he was really on the right but just going overboard to make fun of the sometimes ridiculousness of politics.

Either way, he is a funny guy.

Never stay up late enough for these shows anymore.

I think he's smarter than Letterman. What that will mean i don't know...maybe less lame jokes and pandering.?

Craig Ferguson is way funnier, and smarter, and classier.

Just more evidence of the racist and sexist nature of late night television.
