Well this sure is a coincidence, given my post of only a few hours ago about Bodyworld 2! You can forget all of the happy talk on that radio show I recorded.

Leave it to Stephen Colbert to force my hand about the controversy surrounding Bodyworld 2. Watch the video clip, then click here. If that link doesn’t work for you, try this one. Here it is, folks! The dark, ugly side of the business of turning human corpses into plastic museum pieces.

BTW, I know I haven’t posted much of Colbert lately. Partly because I was genuinely concerned about Comedy Central being on the warpath against its material being posted, but mostly because I haven’t been keeping up. Blogger fatigue, I guess!

My friend Sam is a fan of the gameshow Jeopardy. I thought he would appreciate all-time champ Ken Jennings’ appearance on The Colbert Report, from way back in September. This is my way of tempting Sam away from his brand-new Panasonic 50-inch HDTV plasma panel, to watch tiny, lo-res Net video!

Tonight’s Colbert is a re-run, with the Dean Kamen interview that was featured here. The pass-off from The Daily Show was great, so let’s watch that.

There’s no need for me to post the latest Stephen Colbert’s Tek Jansen Alpha Squad 7 cartoon — now with Porpy, Tek’s ZANY pal! Click here to go to Comedy Central’s Tek Jansen page.

Here’s today’s obligatory sampler from The Colbert Report. After a very amusing exchange with Jon Stewart during the pass-off from The Daily Show, Colbert talks, and sings, with a previous guest — John Hall from the 70’s band Orleans, now a Congressman-elect. The complete show is available at Comedy Central.

Edit: If you happened to see the John Hall segment, you noticed an audio sync problem. So I’ve replaced it with The Word segment, which is funnier anyway. Some great pantomine acting by Colbert.

“DEMS TAKE HOUSE!”

Last night’s tag-team coverage of the mid-term elections by Jon Stewart and Stephen Colbert on Comedy Central was fun. Here are the segments where these two top-of-their-game pundit comedians overlapped. An interesting bit in there where Stewart seems to be acknowledging that Colbert’s popularity is eclipsing his own.
