Craig Ferguson's show was great fun!

Same here, the few times I watched, he wasn't funny..
I had the impression that under his façade, there was nothing but a mean & spiteful person who enjoyed sneering at the "unwashed masses".

Same here, I have seen him live twice. Once when we he was still on CBS and the other right before Covid. He's highly entertaining.

Oh yeah. I forgot how that MF’er wanted all us unvaccinated, leperous untouchables to die. Well…just f—- that guy.

And yet, in a weird, unintentional way, he and his panic brought me happiness today, which I did not see coming. I guess thanks Mr. Colbert,I hope for more of this.

Every time an “entertainer” shifts gears and gets all political, they lose a chunk of viewership which causes them to get bitter and nasty. They don’t seem to get that outside of a small echo chamber of like minded people, people tune in to them to be entertained and will seek that entertainment elsewhere.
I remember the early days when Colbert was on the Daily Show and had some funny segments; when he started sliding left, I stopped paying attention to him in any way whatsoever as I suspect many others did likewise. I hope he gets so wound up he strokes out mid-rant and gets his comeuppance.

In looking at him, I will hazard a guess that’s part of the problem. He has the look of a pill consumer.

I think Colbert is realizing that his entire team, the leftist, lying, America hating team is going down for the count. All his co-conspirators, same phony leftists personalities, are about to lose big time and there is nothing they can do about it. They are throwing their Hail Mary passes, one after another, but the Trump train is gaining momentum and they cannot stop it.
