Far-left host's worst moment may have come during pandemic mania
Good riddance.
It’s not kind to celebrate a show’s demise, especially since it means the people working on it will be looking for work along with its host.
“The Late Show” has been a drag on the culture for some time, and its demise is a net positive. Colbert and company have spread many false narratives, dividing the country in the process.
That’s why we’re starting a new series featuring the worst “Late Show” moments over the years.
- Cringe interviews
- Shameful sketches
- Political buttocks smooching of the first order
Colbert has, sadly, given us plenty of material to consider. And why not start with arguably the most embarrassing “Late Show” moment of all?
The context? Not long ago, Colbert was warning his viewers about the possible dangers of Big Pharma.
The “Strangers with Candy” alum had a change of heart with a change of presidents. That leads us to “The Vax Scene.” It’s as if a pharmaceutical giant with no discernible artistic flair handed the show’s writing staff specific notes and said, “do this.”
And they did.

Re “… It’s not kind to celebrate a show’s demise…”
The days, and the time, for being “kind” are long past.
Laugh in their faces And make them react… If they get violent, take all appropriate measures.
Being “Kind” is The reason why it got as bad as it is.
Have they had the last show? If not, when?
If the boy had started throwing tantrums and upped the volume of his rants about the President of the United States like Jimmah Kimmler, he probably could have got a lot of sympathy and got his bosses to give him his pitiful job back.
Dancing hypodermic needles, with an appropriate mix of races and genders, and Colbert dancing with a fat lady in the audience. What could possibly be wrong with that? /s
May 21
Exactly.
YES
I just read where ABC signed Jimmy Kimmel to a one year extension. I can’t believe they did that. They must have money to waste.
The network will have to replace the show.
I expect that most of the working stiffs will be retained for the new show.
Even the writers will likely be picked up.
The only people I would hold responsible is the executive producer (Colbert himself), and the director (Jim Hoskins).
And maybe the segment director responsible for the when the comment was aired.
Paramount will probably have a new host for the show in a couple weeks and everyone other than Colbert will go on with their lives working for a new A-hole much like the old A-hole.
The new A-hole will be just as Leftist as the old A-hole
Comics Unleashed will replace The Late Show.
Starting May 22, CBS will air back-to-back, half-hour episodes of “Comics Unleashed” Monday through Friday, the network said. This will be followed by back-to-back episodes of the comedy game show “Funny You Should Ask,” which is also produced by Allen, in the 12:37 a.m. time slot.
21 May....
All of late night tv has been a drag on the culture. All the networks would be better going back to the movies they used to run after the local 11:00 news.
Re Kind:
That’s always been the problem with our side… We play by rules that are no longer abided by by the left. And they’ve used it against us time after time after time. Plus, the GOP has been much less “grand old party” and much more “Gutless old pussies” When it comes to dealing with the Democrats…
It’s been refreshing to see the states, forcing the redistricting issues of late. It took Donald Trump to inject some guts into these people.
We’re not going to coexist with these people On the left much longer. They don’t believe in “live and let live”, and that elections are the way to solve differences. Just take a look at that socialist piece of crap. That’s running New York City right now.
We should stop, pretending that we can “all just get along”… You can’t get along with people that want you dead and erased.
I like your redefinition of the acronym.
And remember that pussy derives from pusillanimous,
pusillanimous /pyoo͞″sə-lăn′ə-məs/
adjective
Lacking courage; cowardly.
Destitute of a manly or courageous strength and firmness of mind; of weak spirit; mean-spirited; spiritless; cowardly; -
Cowardly says it all.
“Oh gee, lets not anger the democrats, they might be mean to us…”
Trump injected some testosterone into them. It seems. Finally.
Colbert wasn’t funny on The Daily Show or Strangers With Candy. Just all sarcasm. I don’t know what made anyone think that he was late night host material.
Thanks
Bring back the CBS Late Movie.
Sir!
