[gristy]

13. Hmmm. It's on at 8:30 and 11:30 tonight

Are you saying that the 8:30 showing is not O'Reilly? But 11:30 is?

[Whoa_Nelly]

48. Yup...that's what I'm sayin'

according to the listing info per Comcast schedule.

[Suich]

53. I think the 8:30 show is a repeat of last night's show.

At least it is in Seattle.

In response to today's announcement about survelliance -
he congratulated the President for knowing everything we are thinking, but choosing to ignore it.

18. OMG, Colbert just interviewed Brian Baird (3rd WA Congressional district)

Oh, my god. I thought I was going to have a heart attack, I was laughing so hard. :rofl:

On edit: this the early edition on the west coast. O'Reilly comes later.
I now return you to your regularly scheduled programming...

[NYC Liberal]

19. Colbert: There's nothing wrong with one man saying to a man he admires, "You're damn handsome"

"...with a gun to my head."

[NYC Liberal]

35. OH MY FUCKING GOD - PICTURE OF O'REILLY

[Mabus]

37. "If you're an act

[Rex]

38. Bill says he wished he wouldn't have come on the show!!

OMG! Bill just admitted to it being all an act! HA! Totally got owned!

[Tatiana]

39. Argh! Better than the "Factor" but I hate gimmicks that don't live up to the hype! n/t

[mconvente]

40. overall coulda been better, but colbert never really dicusses the book anyway

he just chides the people.

[Cleita]

41. Oh dear! That was fun! n/t

[Bombtrack]

43. meh: waste of time as I expected

the humerous stuff didn't outweigh the indignity of helping O'Reilly in terms of ratings and pseudo-humanization.

[NYC Liberal]

54. If O'Reilly gets any ratings increase, it'll only be a temporary spike from Colbert watchers.

This won't help him.

[Zodiak]

44. So did anyone catch the first slam?

Colbert said he had to fire someone....couldn't work with him.....sexual predator, you know.

Some in the audience got it, but it took Bill about 15 seconds. It was a HUGE, but subtle slam.

[LSK]

47. the bollywood controversy actually

Because it lampoons the complete and utterly useless topics that O'Reilly typically has on his show.

I never realized how good Colbert is until I watched most of O'Reilly tonite. O'Reilly's show is the biggest waste of non-news that you will ever see.

[Zodiak]

52. I'm sorry you had to endure O'Reilly

surely you used the mute button "liberally".

[Bjornsdotter]

50. It was the best

We are still laughing about it.

Cheers

[demobabe]

56. No, he said Stewart was a sexual predator

...and not that O'Reilly could understand what that would be like!

He slammed him HARD right off the bat - O'Reilly turned 50 shades of angered red and couldn't even speak initially! I'm surprised he didn't walk off.

[Zodiak]

57. That's it!!!!

You got it right! Thanks for clearing up my fuzzy memory when I was only half-paying attention. But it was DEFINTELY the first slam.

[demobabe]

58. Yeah, then O'Reilly looked like a cornered rat

...he was on the defensive, just waiting for what Stephen was going to throw at him next. It was amazing. I wish the whole thing could have lasted longer.

[Gelliebeans]

67. I caught that too!

Bill-o's face was priceless when it registered in that dimwits brain. You almost saw Bill do the math in his brain. :rofl:

[TroglodyteScholar]

77. Yea I had to explain it to teh wief...

...then rewind to watch again w/ context in her head. HUGE slam, fucking ruthless. I laughed like a maniac..

Also, The Word was brilliant. Colbert's our new Mark Twain (thank God, we need one).

[NYCGirl]

45. Well, that was a bit of a disappointment. NT

[Cleita]

46. Colbert stole the microwave oven from O'Reilly's studio.

O-M-G!

[Mabus]

62. The oven that Colmes warms his gruel in

That was killer.

[Mayberry Machiavelli]

49. O'Reilly was owned, from the opening "30% off" salvo. That was both hilarious, and most

likely calculated to piss him off to take him "out of his game".

[Gregorian]

51. O'Reilly's really a sensitive guy. It's all an act.

And just what does that make Colbert?


It was very touching. O'Reilly came on the show filled with fear. It was palpable. But Colbert soothed him. He didn't invite him onto the show to shoot him down. I guess you could call it killing with kindness. Maybe just a glance in a mirror for Bill. Ouch, that was ugly. Just a chance to see himself as he really is. And it doesn't happen too often. Thanks Colbert!

[EFerrari]

72. Bin Reilly called himself "effete".

What was that about?

[Gregorian]

74. We all know he's a liar.

Bin Reilly. :)

Sadly, I think he really isn't the bully he actually is. If that makes any sense.

[EFerrari]

76. Perfect sense. He's just the bully he wishes he was.

lol

:hi:

[WinkyDink]

55. It had some good moments. Too short of a segment, though.

O'R wisely took the humorous appreach to being there.

[EFerrari]

59. I have tickets to the second show.

:)

[NYC Liberal]

60. I was going to go back in November but they cut the line off before we went in

:(

[blogslut]

63. After having watched both programs,

Stephen Colbert looks better than ever and BO looks out of touch and silly.

[brettdale]

64. funny

It was funny , but thats about it.

[Cleita]

65. And that is all it need to be for a comedy show on the Comedy Channel.

:-)

[milkyway]

66. Why didn't Colbert run over to the table with O'Reilly already seated?

Colbert always takes the applause instead of the guest, with the guest already seated. But tonight O'Reilly was standing and Colbert just walked over to him without the flamboyant trot.

At first I thought Colbert did it out of respect for his great master and he would talk about it, but he didn't. The only reasons I can think of is that Colbert knew this would be a different type of intro with the crowd booing, or else O'Reilly asked before the show that the usual entrance not be done.

[EFerrari]

68. "If you're an act, then what am i?"

:rofl:

[Swamp Rat]

69. Priceless!

:rofl:

What a great show! :D

[EFerrari]

71. Colbert is a genius.

He's his own league.

:rofl:

[OrangeCountyDemocrat]

73. The Sexual Predator Comment Was Enough 4 Me

I admit, it was a slightly delayed reaction, until I realized what Colbert meant by his comment. Once I "got it," this combined feeling of laughter and disbelief overcame me.

The other highlights for me were the 30% off sticker, and the closing comment...."If you're an act, then what am I?"

Regarding some of the remarks, the segment was just as long as Colbert normally does. He only gives a few minutes, and he rarely discusses books of his guests in depth, so the fact he ignored this one, is not a big deal. I thought it was funny and witty, and at least slightly better than I expected.

But the sexual predator "joke" was priceless, and made the whole interview.

[Laurab]

75. I did!

and suffered through O'reilly for the first and last time, too - Billo is an idiot!

The 30% off sticker over his FACE was priceless! I think Bill wanted to walk off, but wasn't sure whether or not he was being made fun of - satire just went right over his head....
