I don’t think Stephen Colbert needs any more press, but I am eagerly counting down the days to September 8, 2015, which is the day The Late Show With Stephen Colbert premiers. I have the series recording all ready on the DVR, and am anticipating being extra tired in the mornings on the nights I decide to stay up and watch. I long for those days when I could go to bed at 2 AM and get up at 6 AM with no issues.
I was never a regular watcher of The Daily Show or The Colbert Report, I don’t know why so I can’t say I have been a fan for years, but I thought he would be a good choice when they announced him as a replacement for David Letterman.
Warning: some of the links below have strong language and adult content; if you are shocked you probably haven't spent a lot of time with me. : )
The more I learned about him, the more I loved him, so I made a list of top 10 reasons why I love Stephen Colbert (in no particular order):
10. He can do a spot on imitation of Mick Jagger.
9. He loves being a Catholic.
8. When he breaks character he is even funnier. The spot at 2:51 is priceless.
7. He did a segment "Ask a Grown Man" which gives advice to young girls.
6. He loves "The Lord of the Rings" series and "The Hobbit" so much he played a cameo as a hobbit. Photo courtesy of Time.com.
He's kind of a nerd, and he is OK with that. He's a pretty hot nerd if you ask me.
He has done several other cameos as well.
5. He gave a touching, loving tribute to his mother. If you can watch this without crying, you are made of stronger stuff than I.
4. He's the new voice of Waze.
I updated my Waze, and I want to get lost on purpose just to listen to him!
3. The Colbeard had a life of it's own. He is a pretty hot looking Amish guy, and he should have stuck with the Wolverine, in my opinion.
Check out this picture while he was a student at Northwestern University. I don't like facial hair but I would make an exception in this case! Photo courtesy of Better with a Beard on Tumblr.
2. He funded every teacher requested grant in South Carolina.
1. He donated the funds from his SuperPac to charity.
See you on September 8, Stephen!
