I think my issue with the new Colbert show is that the interviews come off as him fawning over the guests. Even the hard questions are just - TWuG Sep 11, 21:50 8
- I think he wants to start out slow. I don't see him fawning nearly as much as Fallon does. -- nm - GregW Sep 11, 22:13 4
  - does he frequently bend-over and/or cover his face, wanting viewers to believe he's laughing hard? - b! Sep 11, 22:18 2
    - He had to do that every now and then on the Report. My favorite is this one -- (link*) - TWuG Sep 11, 22:23 [youtube] 1
      - that's very funny, but that's genuine. jimmy's bad acting of it grates on me. -- nm - b! Sep 11, 22:36
  - I've never watched Fallon or Kimmel so I don't have that to compare against. I hope Colbert finds his groove - TWuG Sep 11, 22:17
- He over talks them as well. I know he's nervous - Pippy Sep 11, 22:12
- Yeah, you put that well, that's not the whip smart guy that could out debate the high and mighty with their own pov -- nm - zeitgeist Sep 11, 22:08

      - engraved gravy boat. everyone needs a gravy boat. -- nm - mafic Sep 11, 22:45 3
        
        That implies the gravy is not on the plate and that is not how we roll -- nm - the darcy Sep 11, 22:51 2
