Colbert After The Super Bowl

Noel7 — Mon, 08 Feb 2016 20:42:16 GMT

I enjoyed seeing Megyn Kelly out of her element. She did well, imo.

I cannot stand Will Farrell, and his animal expert bit was awful, also imo.

Anyone else have thoughts on the show?

Pretty much a throw-away program last night. Best part was Megan Kelly interview at end of show.

I didn't see the show, but ITA about Ferrell. I don't mind some weird comedy, but he comes across, for me anyway, as icky-weird - off putting I guess you could say.

I like Colbert, though, but haven't managed to see his new show. I need to look into that!

I thought so, too. I found the Kelly interview the most interesting, too.

CB, you and I have so many things in common!

I've always thought Ferrell was creepy, I don't see his appeal. And for some reason, it really bothered me the way he was handling animals and the comments he was making.

We thought the Farrell segment was funny. What animal expert only has a one of a kind animal? I do think he was ad libbing some of it as the bit went on.

The hamster/gerbil was cute.

Tina Fey and that other person were promoting their latest film to be out soon.

Kelly was fine too. I thought the opening sequence with Colbert throwing the football to various people was funny.

Our President has a really great sense of humor.

@JustJazzmom

I loved the football scene! That was so well done.

Like JustJazzMom I enjoyed the opening bit, especially with the president😊

I still miss Colbert's original show, along with Stewart's.

I liked the show following much better - Late Late Show with James Corden.

I agree about the Will Ferrell bit. Very uncomfortable.

I did like the feature with the President. (He was as casual and comfortable as he was with Seinfeld in the "Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee" episode/webisode)

I'm surprised CBS put this on after the Superbowl. Usually they use this as an opportunity to launch a new show or to boost another show they have high hopes for.

I think you got it with your last comment "to boost another show they have high hopes for."

He hasn't caught on in his new show yet.

That's because his views are one sided.

I don't think so, either. But then, I've never been a fan of his.

As far as I'm concerned @deepwaterdotter said exactly what I would have said had I been able to say it as good as she/he did.

I watched and had a few good belly laughs.

Thought that Tina Fey, her co-star, and Megan Kelly looked very good in their sleeveless, cut-out dresses and jumpsuit. ; )
