Even SteVphen

I confess to being late coming to the fold of Stephen Colbert fans.  It was an article in Newsweek early this year that brought him to my attention.

Before getting his own show, Colbert was, of course, on The Daily Show.  Steve Carell (who, by coincidence, graduated from the same high school that I did in Massachusetts*) was also on the show, but he left to join the cast of The Office.

Lately Jon Stewart, perhaps feeling nostalgic for the good old days, has been running clips of Steven and Stephen in action together.  Click the picture to watch.  Some of this is outright hilarious comedic acting.

I don’t want this to become another Stephen Colbert blog, and goodness knows any video I post from the show will be found sooner, rather than later, on YouTube. But Colbert had a great closing to his feminism show last night, so here it is. He’s one of the finest comic actors I’ve ever seen.

Tonight’s show is supposed to include the third Tek Jansen installment, and the winning entry to the Green Screen Challenge. Plan on seeing both of them here on Thursday!

Note: This is how I’ll be presenting videos from now on — linking, not embedding.

Colbert Dishes

Stephen Colbert had an intriguing show last night, dedicated to feminism.  And to mark the occasion he had two surprise guests — Jane Fonda and Gloria Steinem, who were there to promote GreenstoneMedia.net.  But before they could do that, Colbert promptly pushed them over to a kitchen set to do some baking, as seen in the video clip.

I quickly threw together a few pictures, and I apologize for the poor quality.  Fonda is shown in a scene from Barbarella, and Steinem is in the Playboy bunny costume she wore while researching an article she wrote before joining the staff of the previously mentioned HELP! magazine, which is where the other inserted picture came from.
