Colbert was originally pronounced Kohl-BERT. He started pronouncing it Kohl-BEAR when he went to college to reinvent himself, and then carried the joke over to the show.

Speaking of names, Great Character Break? Or, The Greatest Character Break?

And there is the problem. He is screwed either way. If he acts like his normal self, his Comedy Central fans with be pissed because it's not the guy they like. If he acts like the "Kohl-Bear" character, the mainstream audience won't like it. Either way, NBC and Fallon win.

You clearly don't watch his show.
Colbert shrugs off the character constantly on the Report, especially in interviews. He's incredibly charismatic, and his fans will follow him anywhere. |

Chelsea Handler can die in a dumpster fire, I hope to never see her on tv again... I watched her interview Russell Brand a while back and it actually made me LIKE Russell Brand in spite of myself.
She really thinks she's something, but she really sucks. |

I think her stand up comedy was pretty good back in the day.
She just hit a really comfortable, profitable niche on E! as being a huge "don't give a shit" girly host on E!. She'd be a bad host for late night TV on a network, but that niche will pay her handsomely for the rest of her days. There is no justice in the world. |

I've listened to Brand on Stern a few times. Actually a very interesting and intelligent dude.

Right, seriously... what was up with the blond behind the desk, she's supposed to be a professional newscaster and yet she's acting like an eighth grader watching a porn star wag his huge dick around, but all he was doing was being himself and answering questions honestly.
He came off as the only one who knew what the **** he was doing. |

They should try to lure Craig Kilborn back onto the network.

I'm an enormous fan, but I've become more of a fan of Sal, Richard and Ronnie than Howard over the last 2-3 years. I'm hoping that Stern uses the model that WWE has with their network to stream video over that. Get the old uncensored E episodes, old channel 9 stuff. I'd pay 10-15 bucks a month for that easy.

I would go with Fey, Colbert, Degeneres, or Seinfeld in that order if I were CBS.
