Anyone know if this got discontinued when the show got canceled? Cant seem to find it at the local grocery stores anymore.


r/stephencolbert 6d ago

Can anyone confirm this? If true, it's probably the biggest Colbert update since the cancellation.

Found this in the comments of Jimmy Kimmel's newest video.

It says Colbert is launching his own YouTube channel with live shows five days a week instead of disappearing after CBS.

Sounds almost too good to be true, and I can't find a source yet.. Anyone have confirmation? or is this just wishful thinking?

This is #1 of 5.

Tek Jansen is a fictional character featured on The Colbert Report and in a comic book series published by Oni Press. Jansen originated as a recurring joke in the form of a supposed self-published science fiction novel on the Report, reportedly as a parody of Bill O'Reilly)'s 1998 novel, Those Who Trespass.\1]) The character later appeared on the show in a series of animated shorts entitled Stephen Colbert Presents Stephen Colbert's Alpha Squad 7: A Tek Jansen Adventure, with Jansen voiced by Stephen Colbert, and in 2007 became the protagonist of a five-part comic series.

The Colbert Report, March 8 2006, Stephen advertises that for each show they fly a new American Flag outside the studio and sell the one before it.

His promise was that he would wrap each flag around his naked body.

Instead of LOTR I'd like to see Colbert involved in the production of something set in the world of Greyhawk.

I know he has experience adventuring in the Sheldomar Valley. Give him his pick of who to play or at least cameo as. An established lore NPC or even his own character.

What part do you think he could have if was in one of her future videos?

And what do we think the chance are of this actually happening?

Where in the World is Stephen Colbert!

Stephen is more than an entertainer to me. He's one of our greatest champions in this war being waged against the American people.

Why havent we heard from him? I thought he and his staff were planning to just move shop from cbs to some other venue. God, I'd pay $100/ month to have his (and his intrepid news staff's) perspective Right Now if there was some COLBERTSHOW.com with just his show. Seriously, why cant we crowdfund our media/ journalism rather than letting advertisers and fascist overlords pay the piper?

When "Only in Monroe" released immediately after the last lateshow episode, I thought they had just moved the show to the stephencolbert youtube channel. That's what they should have done! But they only did the single episode. Lame!

Now we have lost one of our greatest voices, and only because no one wants to try a newer business plan? WTF!

All these media channels are being strangled and we act like crowdfunding like gofundme couldnt work for one show.

I'm sure it would take a steep investment but it would pay off pretty quick.

Or go to Netflix or apple tv or something, right?

I still watch the dailyshow, seth meyers, and kimmel, but all our sources of information begin to dwindle.

Have a good day.

From the archive I've started watching The Colbert Report from the first episode in 2005. It's like watching black mirror.

2.1k Upvotes

After The Late Show, we coudln't deal with not having SC to make us smile every day, so decided to pull out the entire archive of TCB and start from ep 1...

It is incredibly scarey and fascinating to be watching this show and quite regularly being amazed because I can't really tell that it's 2005/2006, not 2025/2026. So little has changed. There are so many instances I want to clip and share, (especially from The Word), because the only way you can tell it's 2006 is he's saying "Iraq" instead of "Iran".

The issues, concerns, chaos - it's all the same, just not as out of control. You can really see the foundation of the MAGA movement even back then starting to raise it's head.

It is like watching an incredible interactive documentary about the fall of democracy in the USA.

Now there's about 160 episodes per year...I'm currently up to episode Ep 26 of Season 2 (2006)....so only ~1,400 episodes to go

Edit: yes, DM if you need the details. but might take a while to get to everyone

We Are Scientists drummer compares playing Letterman vs Stephen Colbert, nicer crew on Colbert, memories doing it, + late night TV impact on band's confidence (25:38 into the episode)

Keith Carne from We Are Scientists shared his experience playing on both Late Night with David Letterman and The Late Show with Stephen Colbert.

He said playing Colbert was definitely better because the crew was much nicer and Stephen Colbert wanted to create a welcoming culture for everyone. On Letterman he felt lost and didn’t know where to go. He also mentioned Colbert’s dressing rooms were much nicer.

Keith talked about how playing late night television boosted his confidence as a musician. He also called the cancellation of Colbert’s show unfair due to politics (at 28:48).

Stephen Colbert was a major source for keeping me somewhat up to date with political ongoings in a light hearted manner that was entertaining, especially the sections that were posted to youtube. Any recommendations on what to watch now without just gluing myself to news stations?

I'm having a hard time...

I know that it hasn't been that long since LSSC ended, but I'm having a hard time with the anger and sadness I'm experiencing. During Trump's first four years, it was Stephen and his show that kept me sane.

I just can't stand what Trump/MAGA has done to so many wonderful things, including Stephen and his show.

I just want to tell Stephen that I love and appreciate him, and I would love to see him come back into the media in a way that really ruins Trumps day!
