Yuck..


WTF? Kisses Helen Mirren and then tries the same with J J Abrams. He thinks this is funny? It's getting weirder and weirder.

Colbert's behavior is really strange at times. and not in the good way

reply

Next thing you know he'll be kissing Sally Field.

reply

Hah! Nailed it.

David Letterman kiss many Actresses for years and years! and sometime it was on the lips! Go and find the montage of him and Julie Roberts. Once after he smooched Julie he joked he though he felt his carrot move.

Other Late Night hosts have kiss women who cam on their show as well so what the big deal?

reply

What, specifically, do they not get?

I think some of us were hoping that Colbert would be different from the others.

I know I was.

Colbert's going on and on about kissing Mirren, then kissing Sally Field . . .

and now tonight we get a love duet with Anna Kendrick . . .

I miss The Colbert Report so much.

It's like Colbert died and was replaced by this schmaltzy clone.

reply

Yeah, God forbid he gets to be himself instead of a character.

Dying would have been preferable to this, imo. At least when a great performer passes, the memory lives on. This craps on the memory of the Colbert Report. This gives you a glimpse behind the curtain to reveal an actor, who, for years, was unfulfilled with not only winning awards, but with mending a broken political system as well- unfulfilled with making the world a better place. This was an actor suffering under the weight of all that greatness, yearning for mediocrity, who, unfortunately, got his wish to fade into obsolescence and obscurity.

This is way sadder than death. Dead heroes are still heroes. This is someone you were certain was great, who was actually never great at all, just surrounded by great people, and who was never really happy with the brilliance they were channeling through him.

So when I do fall head over heels in love with a celebrity, it's kind of a big deal. And there's no celebrity, past or present, that I cherished as much as I cherished you.

Those touching words with which you addressed Mr. Colbert, the tender thoughts that you so kindly shared with the world, shall forever echo on the internet in their torment. The pain still lingers, as after six months time, the depth of your agony (and your nightly viewership) has clearly not diminished. I was hoping against hope that you might by now have chanced to find distraction in a new TV idol, one worthy of your tender affection. Alas, the weight of loneliness still haunts and bedevils you. Hell hath no fury like a viewer scorned, yet who dares not look away. Be strong, keyboard warrior.

LOL. And you accuse me of stilted verbiage?

Yes, I still mourn, and I still watch. And you still stalk. For the record, just tonight, I told my grandmother "Grandma, Colbert isn't as funny as he used to be- and getting less funny by the minute. If you want me to continue to DVR it, I will, but, if you reach a point where you want to watch something else, just let me know and I'll find something else for us to watch together."

Those were my exact words.

We might as well be watching Matlock.

reply

Not amused. Fine, Helen Mirren kissed him. No problem. Dame Helen Mirren can do whatever she wants! But no need to turn it into a trend/running joke! Now it's just creepy. Hope there's no more of it next week.

reply

Exactly.. He makes a big deal of it and continues gush over it for a week. He tried to kiss JJ Abrams. Gets under the blanket with fellow guests and talk stupid. Demeans his crew. It's not pulling a leg or a joke. He is showing his arrogant side.

reply

Wow..he kissed Jeff Daniels.

reply

Kissing Helen Mirren is sexy, what are you talking about? Do her in a heartbeat .

What's missing in movies is same as in society: a good sense of work ethic and living up to ideals.
