Stephen Colbert replacing Letterman!

[Anonymous]

Bummed about this.

Colbert is really funny even when he is not in character so I think he will still be funny. However, I am bummed that he won't be doing the Colbert Report anymore and will instead be "interviewing" celebrities for the most part.

When I had heard he was the front runner for this job, I thought he might pass on it but I guess not. Will probably watch a lot of Colbert Report this year before it is gone!

Stephen Colbert is my major intellectual crush after Robert Shiller. I can't believe he is going to the network. Has to be for the money. CBS needs him much more than he needs CBS.

I'm with you on the Colbert crush and have to take your word for it on Shiller.

It's definitely for the money.

He must make a ton of money already though.

I agree. Colbert is wicked smart and funny and I love his character on the Colbert Report. I DVR it and watch it every night (the next day) along with Jon Stewart. I remember when Colbert was invited to the National Press Club to roast Pres. Bush (Jr.) Oh my!

Oops. Your Boston is showing. So is your partisanship.

sometimes it has to be more than the money. you don't turn down this kind of opportunity. you just can't. i remember tony kornheiser only last what 1/2 seasons on Monday Night Football. he was awful in that medium and heart wasn't in it to begin w/but said if someone approaches you w/that kind of deal you do it.

He has been wanting this show, and apparently timed the end of his contract to line up with Dave's retirement, so I think it is definitely more than the money.
