Sign Of Eth Posted July 15, 2008 Share Posted July 15, 2008 Cool! For the Cinci show, I made up a Colbert/Peart 2008 campaign T-shirt and wore it second row! I was right in front of Geddy all night, so he HAD to have seen it. You can't see it in the picture below, but that's me! Col-bair and Peer in 2008!

Never seen it though. Do we? I've never seen it In any case even if we do it'll probably be in about three years or so...... Oh, it's on cable. The channel FX, I think. We usually see it start after Family Guy, but we've never been interested in watching it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ancient Ways Posted July 15, 2008 Share Posted July 15, 2008 I can't believe that so many of you haven;t seen this (at least those here in the States). Stephen Colbert's show is hilarious satire of the overly serious, know-it-all cable news host. If there is an interview segment don't be surprised if he is seemingly hostile towards the boys as it is part of his schtick. I'm sure there are tons of clips on youtube. Check some out. Also, check on there after the show airs for the Rush segment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skyswing Posted July 15, 2008 Share Posted July 15, 2008 I think we're seeing the fruits of the Rolling Stone story, which, some speculate, happened after the Foo Fighters show. Awesome! Exposure on U.S. television for the first time since 1975. It's exposure - at this point it doesn't matter if they play Tom Sawyer or not! I'll say it again - Awesome!

I watch The Daily Show every weeknight (the show Colbert was originally on) and while I do think Colberts show is funny, I cant watch it very often because (to me anyway) the stchik gets old quickly. But I will definitely be watching it this time! Though I have to say I really wanted to throw him a party after that speech he did at that big dinner at the white house.

Actually, you can watch episodes of "The Colbert Report" for free on comedycentral.com after they're aired. BTW, for those of you who haven't seen it, here's Colbert's finest moment: Needless to say, he wasn't invited back to the Press Corps dinner the next year. Here's him on O'Reilly too: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VPfZBtxrT5s&feature=related I'm really pumped to see him interview Rush. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haha I had seen that first clip (that guy was my hero after that haha) But I had never seen the O'Reilly interview before. Is O'Reilly just being cheeky or does he really not get that Colbert is making fun of him? haha. How awkward. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PuppetKing2112 Posted July 15, 2008 Share Posted July 15, 2008 You know what? "Tom Sawyer" is a f***ing great song. So I'm fine with them playing it. If Rush gets the "Colbert bump" then great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did Lee Squat? Posted July 16, 2008 Share Posted July 16, 2008 What's really awesome about this is that I have a friend who refuses to listen to Rush because he think they're "weird music", but he is a big fan of Colbert. I hope he watches it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
