he was CULTIVATING mass
He was cultivating mass.

Well, through God everything is possible, so jot that down.
For a show about a group of depraved sociopaths, the show has a shockingly wholesome cast
Cause they get to act out there fantasy's on the show which makes them normal in real life.
Nice people are almost always the best at playing complete scum
I wonder if they cringe while watching their own show lol

Exactly, if Rob hadn't created the show he would have never had two moms.
@@ViperXXXXXXX Im talking about things like Dee and Dee wanting to get money from the government, but they have to be addicted to drugs first! So they go out and start smoking crack just to get the money. That's crazy! I see what you did ...good try thou!
"not everybody was fortunate as I was" in response to "What was it like growing up in the 1980's with 2 moms?" is leaps and bounds the best line he ever said.
Yeah was definitely something I never knew, now can see a lot of that in his writing. Was a nice line as you say, happy for them.
His bio mom got cast out of the catholic church when she came out which is why he uses his character to rip on catholicism constantly. Definitely an interesting story with this guy. Sunny is pretty much all I watch when I watch TV. Best show ever
@@Rob_Cary same here. I can't think of anything better to watch so why watch anything else😂👍
I don’t know but then he said I had to gay brothers! Two moms one out of three boys were straight I wonder... always love it’s always sunny.. Love Rob but you got to at least point the obvious out Ignore the oddity The influence we are subjected to as an adolescent to 16 or so when we gain our sense of self molds us
Stop virtue signaling you peasant lol
Very brave of Mac to come on a talk show alone without Dennis' supervision.
He gave everyone an ocular pat down before going on stage.

He didn’t have anything to hide how scared he was though.
He was doing karate moves in his head lol

He was searching for potential prey.

Because the guy that wrote those characters made the new show... it comes from the same mind... yenno?
Whoever that FX producer is... he fuckin nailed it with the Danny Devito idea. I couldn't imagine the show without him. I remember liking the first season well enough, but it really ramped up after that.
True. Rob said he was worried bringing in DeVito would “ruin” the chemistry they had. It didn’t necessarily effect the chemistry, but it had a huge impact on the dynamic of the show. And it was a good change.
Pretty amazing that Danny slipped in without missing a beat. I don’t think anyone else would’ve been able to do that.
Yeah dude, he’s like a strange mix between Jack Black and Anthony Hopkins. Both insane and off the rails, and perfectly refined as an actor.
It's almost better that he wasn't in the first season. We get to know the characters before encountering the hugely disruptive force known as frank
He's the GOAT, master of his craft
I still remember the day I found out he is actually married to Dee and Charlie is married to the Waitress. That somehow made the show even funnier.
Totally
I find the Charlie/waitress dynamic particularly funny with that in mind
And dennis is married to danny devito.. I'm pretty sure
David Mackie seems legit
I’m not going to bother looking that up
@@davidmackie5850 he's actually married to Jill Latiano.
What day was it?
That audience sucked. They arent used to a comedian having a calm delivery. It's like they have to have the joke yelled at them so they know to laugh
That's just the way Stephen's show is miced and mixed, you'll notice they audience reactions always sound further away than typical live shows, even when there's a "loud" reaction it sounds far or quieter than normal.
they should've had a laugh track for this episode
It was more like the Audience was all hardcore fans of the show and were really interested in it. People buy tickets weeks in advance, there aren't that many sunny fans but they are hardcore. T
I heard people laughing. Plus most of his jokes aren't "laugh out loud" kinda humor anyway so I hope he wasn't discouraged if they weren't loud.
@@Paul-zh2jp Thanks. Now I know if I need to throw up in my mouth, I'll just think "Let's add a laugh track to a late night interview between 2 comedians."
"the opposite of 'Friends'..." Sold.

Painfully awkward interview and not by Rob's doing. He's an incredible guest and person, and given how few interviews he does, I really wish that Colbert had made the most of it. A real shame.
I Don't understand how him or the saturday night live weirdo... Jimmy falon? are talk show hosts... Its literally painful to watch... Every interview.. every moment.. :(
They can't all be Conan
Colbert ruined it, and that band. Good god, jazz music is an abomination.
I don’t know why on earth he had to ask the Danny Devito question that was answered over a decade ago when the season 1 dvd came out. 😂 Update your boring questions, Colbert.
McElhenney has plenty of funny, smart and interesting things to say, but the prompts he’s given here are flat and empty.
Watch Colbert with Ricky gervais. Constantly cuts him off mid joke or story telling
1:25 Oh Colbert, McElhenney isn't peaking. He hasn't even begun to peak. When he peaks, he's going to peak so hard everyone's going to know it.
He's going to peak all over everybody ( *Together forever and never to part* )

i think the laughs are so spared and quiet bc the audience is really interested in what he has to say... he throws jokes into his speech so naturally and without even thinking about it that it takes a second to realize he’s even told a joke, it’s just so natural. i felt bad when i first watched this bc i thought the audience just didnt find him funny, but i think theyre really listening to him and enthralled with what he’s saying instead of just watching to be entertained.
Somehow the fact that he grew up in a lesbian household makes his character arc very poignant

When I was 30 I had a large brain tumor cut out of my head, I couldn't walk or really do much of anything by myself. During this time is when I discovered Always Sunny and I got to say it really made that miserable time enjoyable. To this day it remains one of my favorites. Thank you so much cast and crew of Always Sunny in Philadelphia.
How are you doing now bud? Are you walking yet? I had a TBI so I had similar issues with walking. I’m just inquisitive. I hope you’re okay?
You did use past-tense so I believe you’re good now?

@@chemdog1632 Man, why did I have to find this tonight?... I have to see a specialist tomorrow to see if I am in the same boat. This comment really scares the hell out of me. Glad you made a full recovery.
What a genuinely respectful, polite, well-spoken, creative, cool dude he is. He's also a pretty great comedic actor. Love the 2 moms showing up for the show. I'm now a much bigger fan of his than I was before. I had no intention of watching that new show and after watching this I'm not going to miss it.
Same here.
Colbert has no chemistry with rob in this interview
Gianni Puface Why do people keep saying that? Colbert did good. I think you guys just don’t know Colbert. If you had seen him in the Daily Show in his earlier days with Jon Stewart you would get him more.
“In sunny they’re friends and they’re stuck together because no one else would be friend with them.” The entire plot of the show
remember when they tried to go their own ways and lost their minds
You’d be a lot cooler if “story of my life” was a Social Distortion reference

I don’t think people realized that him preferring to be fat wasn’t a joke
I think everyone realized that. When he said it...
He was pretty obviously serious and explained why. People laughed because it's funny that looking great often means feeling awful, not because they thought he didn't mean it.
He gained mass🙄
Men look better with some fat, especially in the face. I don’t think men look good lean at all
Right! Not the first time he's spoken out about how unmanageable that lifestyle is for most.
I love him. Mac is one of my favorite characters of all time. His inner-tension and insecurities throughout are so great to watch and when he finally comes out to his dad....not only comes out but continues on after his dad walks out of the room....it's just beautiful!
I could listen to him (the real Rob) talk for hours and would love to....gonna go find some more interviews
I was touched by the gesture of that episode. It was apparently RM's love letter to his moms, brothers and LGBT friends, but it made no sense in terms of the show. Mac would never do anything CLOSE to that. It struck me as kind of self-indulgent and showboaty.
@@MikeM-uy6qp I do agree, or at least think I do based on my understanding....it definitely seems like as the show continues on their true personalities are becoming those of the characters and, although I'm very much a lefty and agree with most of their opinions, it doesn't feel true to the show or at least what the show was/what made it great.
I know it's one of the two shows that makes Hulu worth it to me and I don't watch must beyond season 8 or 9 and even those aren't entirely enjoyable to me. Still one of the greats tv-wise!
Rob looking up at his moms every 60 seconds is the most wholesome thing ever.
Yep, you're a Chandler. Sorry.
@@junkboxhero4825 k
@@junkboxhero4825 haha what does that even mean
It means he’s has a miserable life😂
They've been answering that Danny Devito question for over a decade
Shut up, bird!!!
It wasn't actually a joke when he said that the ripped version was a miserable existence. He's explained this in several interviews and i'm sure he's tired of talking about it. Being ripped is a 24 hour a day JOB where you have to work out when you're exhausted and eat foods that taste like nothing. It SUCKS
Definitely. Being at that abnormal level of musculature and leanness requires ridiculous measures. Unless you get paid and receive all the professional help to get there, you won't get there. Steroids also help.
he wasnt even that cut and he used roids too. you can do it without eating crappy foods. just eat meat and veggies basically and avoid carbs
@@hurpaderpp carbs are good if you burn them off. There are good carbs and bad carbs. Pasta for one is a great food when trying to bulk. You’re confusing losing weight and dieting with power bulking and lifting for mass
@@almightyZAW im not confusing anything. If you want to be shredded its easiest to avoid carbs. I never stated that there werent good or bad carbs and I wasn't talking about bulking so completely irrelevant to what I was saying.
Maybe learn to read before being a combative know it all douche bag next time eh
Not to mention how cranky and agitated you are, constantly. Plus the fatigue
I’ve fan a fan of “IASIP” since the first season. When i heard DeVito was joining the cast i was hesitant at first. DeVito is funny but wasn’t sure how he would fit in with the cast. Now i could never imagine the show without him.
damn. neither stephen nor this dead crowd deserve rob - dude should have had a way better audience
@Prime Records do you think this is scripted or they just comes on live in front of an audience? Honest question though... Cause sometimes I'm not sure..
@@Dylans503 bro talk shows have been scripted for decades. that's not a conspiracy either, it's not a secret
@@player6769 yeah okay. So follow up question, if a guest doesn't hit, then who's to blame?
People like to act like it's always the host fault.
@@Dylans503 ?? I was just answering your question, I thought the interview went fine personally
@@player6769 and I was just following the context of this whole thread here that were replying to..the topic was about how Colbert is a shitty host.
I also thought the interview was good. he pulled it together really well torwards the end
This was such an awkward interview, "I'm going to ask you every question that has been asked about your show 12 years ago"
Exactly....and this is why the crowd was so dead. Its like watching a rerun of a show. You are already know the punchlines so it wont be as interesting.
@@negritorican Thank you. Chemistry is terrible.
he didnt let rob finish teh danny devitto story. which im sure he was gone say how he was wrong and danny fit in perfect.
To be fair, they go over what questions are going to be asked before the interview, so those are the questions Rob wanted to be asked.
Every single interview from Colbert with someone funny is awkward. Being terribly unfunny himself, he has no idea what to do with a person with humor. I regret it every time I sit through one of his videos. I get sucked in by a guest I really like and it’s terrible 100% of the time.
Steven Colbert doesn’t even know anything about the show. Anyone can tell he’s been fed lines to read to act like he has. Rob is pretending like Steve knows it but we all know Rob and sunny fans know Steven doesn’t
I guarantee you that Colbert sees Always Sunny as low-brow humor. Not a doubt in my mind. And to keep it real, a guy like Colbert probably genuinely has much better things to do than plop down on the couch and binge Always Sunny.
That being said Colbert is a puppet with the industry's arm shoulder-deep in his asshole reaching up to his mouth and making it move like a ventriloquist dummy.
NAILED IT
Yes! Dude is comedic genius. Wish he would have had his first solo interview done by someone who could appreciate it.
That explains how condescending and phoned in the interview was
Colbert only knows how to be fake.. Thinking Colbert is funny is like believing CNN gives you factual news..
Always Sunny is the opposite of friends, it is a quality show.
14 seasons on and were still asking about how they got Danny Devito, like what they do is somehow beneath him? They're talented show creators/actors/producers/writers, that's how.
I dont think anyone really thinks that, they've already created the longest running comedy sitcom of all time, and have a permanent greenlight from FX. On top of that pretty much all of the cast have been getting steady side projects and are all respected actors and comedians
Didn't Devito have a natural interest in the show? He was never asked or requested to be a part of it. Devito wanted to be a part of it.. afaik...
@@cortec7964 Devito said he and his kids were a fan of the show and he wanted to be a part of it. His daughter appears in three episodes also.
To be frank (no pun intended): IASIP is one of the greatest television shows, ever. Far too many people have missed the boat, and I always feel sorry for them. Whenever I need a real genuine laugh, I turn to Sunny. Looking forward to Rob's new show!
It's hard to get into the show in the first place, friends of mine where watching it and I never understood what's funny about it, when I started watching it from the beginning myselfe I was hooked and binge watched 12 seasons in about 10 days.
BeneBengt I always told my friends how great it is!...but you MUST watch from the beginning to get to know the characters and their quirks. Never been told I was wrong about that 🙂 best show of all time!
My husband proposed to me by singing the "marry me" portion of the Night Man cometh episode lolol I agree with you
BeneBengt I got into it after watching the first 2 minutes of the pilot
Man, after I discovered the show and fell in love with it I was talking about it everyday at work basically begging my friends to watch this. Eventually they cave in and now I have other fans of the show at work 😄
"As we age, we tend to get less better looking".
Literally is more ripped and better looking than ever.
he doesn't like it. he does it for the show tbh. he also gets fat then gets ripped af and repeats.
Impossible to not love Rob. Man is very humble and genuine. He is able to transform both his body and personality to match his character and is a great actor/writer. He doesn't get enough respect for what he does. Much respect sir!
I did not know about Rob's background. The season finale where he did the dance routine coming out to his dad in prison was surprisingly touching and got me choked up even though I'm straight. Given his background, it makes sense why he wanted to do that scene and why it actually came across as so passionate.
@Howdy Justice That episode came out in November 2018, you've had plenty of time
They were too busy watching the office for the 7th time, how could they have seen that episode?
Big Cheese you clearly didn’t understand it then
@@Allyourheroswenttohell I totally get that response. I expected that to be mine as well, and was kind of surprised it wasn't. Maybe because the dance was still with a woman... Not sure. It was meant to be uncomfortable but also beautiful, and I think it accomplished that.
It may sound like I'm exaggerating, but that scene is one of the great, iconic moments in television. There are probably hundreds of entire TV series that aren't as good as that one scene.
He looks like he'd rather be oiling up some beefcakes.

Rob is such a class-act. I thought he was a genius before season 13... then I watched his dance number in the finale-- Holy shit balls!
Rob, Danny and Rob's dance partner (depicting God, I think) had me in tears.
I love how the band plays him out with "Green Hill Zone" from Sonic the Hedgehog
From watching Always Sunny, it's surprising to see how soft-spoken and earnest Rob is. You could tell he was nervous too, but he did great.
Stephen has no idea how successful this show is.
So true colbert was barely taking him seriously
@@billyvonhein3205 I get that vibe too. It always bothers me that some interviews Colbert absolutely jams with the guest so well, and then others he is so abrupt with Q&As and doesn't feed the conversation at all. Rob explains the plot to Mythic Quest, Colbert stares awkwardly in silence *awkward nod* "There it is..."
I'm sure he knows exactly how successful a TV show that has 14 seasons is. He's on the business for Pete's sake
Come on now..... Rob was nervous and he didn't deliver with that extra charisma that you know we were all looking for..
He did seem prepared though...
@@Dylans503 it's kind of hard to come across funny when the guy sitting across from you is staring blankly at you. God forbid Colbert help sell the jokes with some chuckles.
15 years later and the show that shouldve won atleast three emmys for best comedy series, still here talking about how they got the big star Danny Devito. Terrific. Also, this litteraly means nothing to me.
thank you for creating such a euphoric show. you bring me joy when times get rough
I love Rob and "It's Always Sunny" has been my favorite show for more than a decade but that audience sucked. Not a single joke landed and it kind of felt how the general public has treated "Sunny" for the past 14 years.
They're too fringe, the industry doesn't get it
If I was there I would laugh and say "I think it's funny and I'm tired of pretending it's not."
IDK about any of you guys but I couldn't even get past 2 episodes of season 14. Does it get better? I love it's always sunny but to me it feels like they're just not into it anymore.
He wasn’t dropping trump jokes?
Colbert really did not help at all
"The ripped guy is a miserable existence." - Truer words have never been spoken.

I was playing poker in AC the weekend before DeVito got into the process of joining. For about an hour I listened as he told the table he was sitting at right behind me about the show.
I remember him being really impressed with the approach of the show and the ensemble approach.
I love how well spoken he is. He is so calm!
Wow seeing Rob speak so fluently and calmly is such a contrast from the show
To whomever that hasn't seen it, I can tell you now it's without a doubt Always sunny in Philadelphia is the most original and unique dark comedy you can find anywhere. It's beyond a 10/10 in so many ways... Do yourself a favour

oh my god racked my brain!!!
FYI, the outro music is Green Hill Zone from Sonic 1. It way be a “duh” moment but I spent 20 minutes trying to remember the damn thing.
Damn, he entered the set with such confident energy.
Good stuff!
Was Colbert asleep during this interview? Rob McElhenney basically had to conduct it himself. He deserves better.
Its cause Colbert was listening and letting rob talk
@@anitabonghit7606 But he also didn't let him finish any of his stories, interrupted him midway and changed the subject every time, I understand is a matter of air-time but god they can edit it later.
It just feels like 2 guys trying to be funny together, but they also have never met before and don't know each other at all
Have you met Colbert?
I always thought he was bad at conducting interviews. Always interrupting, always trying to crack a joke no matter if the timing was good or bad. Why I stopped watching his show.
How come it took so long to get onto a talk show by himself
Everyone: he has a new show
Me as an intellectual: he paid the Troll Toll
It took so long because of the implication.
Because he is bad at it. I love ASIP, but this was awkward.

Love It's Always Sunny. Also love the fact that they decided to play the piano version of a Sonic the Hedgehog level at the outro to the commercial break. Took me a second to remember where I knew that from.
I love the unexpected Sonic music as the outro, presumably because his show is about a videogame.
Glad someone else caught it. XD
it felt like colbert shafted him there, he would say something trying to be humorous and colbert would just say nothing and let it hang in dead air or cut his story off, maybes he got stung buying into fight milk or somert
Dead air!
Always Sunny is one of the greatest shows that has or will ever exist. I hope it runs for 20 more seasons. Rob and Glenn and Charlie and Kaitlin and Danny and Hornsby are geniuses and never have gotten the props they deserve.
10:47 that piano cover of green hill zone is amazing
Stephen Colbert’s biggest talent is being able to suck the funny out of the room.
They close with green hill zone
They've done this quite a few times now. I legit think Jon Batiste is just a fan of Sonic haha
It’s on his album: Hollywood Africans.
I KNEW I recognized it from somewhere! Thank you!
Here is a short video about with Jon Batiste playing and talking about video game music ua-cam.com/video/3COsHCsEf7I/v-deo.html
So I'm not losing my mind, thanks :)
When I first watched Always Sunny wayyy back in Season 1, I loved it and ... could not believe how it stayed funny and *got better* after all this time. I loved it so much I went to visit Philadelphia. It is not sunny.
Their only one scene than I can think of that it rains in philadelphia
The name "It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia" comes from a dark comedy short play. Forget what it was about, but I do remember it being pretty twisted.
Hey, hey. Now wait a minute.....okay you’re right, but still.
I love how he says "I'm on tv, moms!" like he hasn't been on tv for over a decade, haha
It was Mac coming out
When Rob said that being fat he was happy, and being "in shape" was a miserable existence.
I felt that.
Love the idea of chasing your own happiness, instead of society's idea of what you should be.
He also said Fat Mac would also be Dead Mac
diabetes and obesity sure are a good time
like what @Dave P said. being skinny doesnt always mean healthy but it's less to worry about than diabetes and heart attacks, my top biggest fears. im 4'11 and weight 180 and im sure not happy and that's not because people r making fun of my body, it's cuz my body just feels like shit in general from all the extra mass no matter how hard I work to get rid of it. so stop trying to tell everyone to just do you and be happy. its pretty shitty advice in the long run once u realize it
I never realized I don’t how to say his name till colbert said it
Cj Scanlon it’s why they call him “Mac”! I was blown away too
Not sure even Colbert even said it right 😂
This guy is an intellectual's - with a sense of humor - intellectual. I greatly respect and admire him; you can tell he has an intelligent, creative, methodical, and prolific mind. No wonder the audience was quiet; you listen when someone like him speaks. Too bad it seemed like they didn't get him though.
That's Colbert for ya. He's an awful talk show host.
Conan would have made this as great as it should have been
Yeh very underated. Dunno why colbert had such a distain
@@JacaboBlanco Colbert's problem is he spent over a decade interviewing people behind a satirical lens in the Colbert Report and Daily Show. He was able to say things he wouldn't normally feel like saying to guests because it was a satire and he was playing a character. That skill doesn't always translate to genuine interviews and he comes off kinda boring because of it.
I didn't expect his run on The Late Show to be just like Colbert Report but I was hoping he'd still have some of that comedy/journalistic edge but it's mostly gone from what I've seen.
Love that green hills on the piano for the outro
Out of Charlie, Glenn and Rob, I feel like it's always sunny is His show
It’s literally his show. He’s the creator of the entire concept, the pilot and a vast majority of the scripts. Glenn and Charlie were executive producers alongside him because he’s awesome and made sure it would be “their” show as well. He wasn’t remotely selfish in a creative sense and understood as writers (let alone the character actors themselves since there was no money) they also reserved the right to determine what the though was or wasn’t.
Rob: talks about minorities, LGBT, important perspectives etc.
Colbert: anyway
Lilli KG good, it was cringeworthy
Lilli KG
Colbert is a talentless late night host.
FAT MAC
I don't want to hear about that either. Rob is around to make me laugh, not rail about social injustices. Also while he's at it, maybe he'll get back to writing the show episodes with Glenn and Charlie, the last few seasons have sucked hard.
I really hope he doesn't go woke with his new show
What a dead crowd 😫😫
Samuel Gault they didn’t have enough crowtein.
He was going for gasps.
@@JabbatheMatt for real. At first I thought maybe it was Rob being awkward but Stephen really struggled to keep the interview exciting with his pauses and his "..... well there ya go...." type of comments that don't leave Rob anything else to say.
Colbert's not funny.
One of the smartest, &
most creative/ influential screen writers of all time! This is worth watching!
Been watching sunny for over a decade now but when Rob mentioned his moms were there it really surprised me. Had no clue he was raised by gay parents and I thought I knew everything about the show. Also, what an awesome guy
yea, he seems to be the most private out of the actors who play the gang, which he deserves and I respect.
These are like children’s questions....”so u got fat huh?”
"why'd you get fat?" like you can't look that up because Rob has said it before in as many ways as possible...
I thought it was a good question only because I've never heard him use the friends comparison before. whether he has said it before or not, I personally haven't heard him explain why.
a storyline that happened many, many years ago. like we can tell ya don't watch the show, stephen lol
John's the best. Rob talks about his show about a game company, then he plays him off to the Green Hill Zone Theme.
was looking to see if anyone spotted that
Ben Flatley same here it was the only reason I scrolled down to the comments...lol
@@BennyFlaps def spotted it. Not the first time John's thrown in that Green Hill Zone either
@@Nick930 He's even introduced someone to the Final Fantasy Prelude once. Can't remember who though.
Colbert cut him off before he could explain that they ended up loving DeVito on the show.
Yep. That story wasn't finished.
That was amazing. Very intelligent responses to every question. I'm very impressed Rob. Great job on your first solo interview!
Stephen Colbert missing all the jokes Rob throwing out at him
The length I go through to see any member of “Its Always Sunny in Philadelphia” I’ll even watch Stephen Colbert
Rob's big smile always make big smile, love this guy
I absolutely loved that the outro music was Green Hill Zone from Sonic The Hedgehog. Classy.
Why is no one commenting on how DEATHLY quiet the audience is
richie galvan for real....this was so cringy
They're in awe of Rob. That's the hope anyway. I know I would be. The man's a comedic genius.
@@vSupermanv That's just the way Stephen's show is miced and mixed, you'll notice they audience reactions always sound further away than typical live shows, even when there's a "loud" reaction it sounds far or quieter than normal. Our ears are also more used to fake applause than you'd think. I think Stephen just tries to keep it more organic and natural, they could easily fix it by micing it differently but I guess they don't care lol.
Because the interview was a different tone to usual...that's all.
Sara Cagle lol it’s weird cause the audience acts the same way to all the sunny cast I’ve noticed. Maybe they’re not meant for the mainstream
I heard the whole cast had agreed to get fat over a season break, then came back and Rob was the only one who followed through
No, only Rob agreed to do it he wanted everyone to do it
He asked the rest of the cast and they said noooooooo thank you sir.
Hey got fat when his wife was pregnant. It's commonly known as "sympathy baby weight"
To create their avatars
@@pitchfolkmedia916 No, it was for a 'bit' he wanted to do on "Sunny".
Rob "People tend to look less better as they age"
Currently looks the best he ever has.
Love watching his interviews so much
The sonic theme at the end. Thought we wouldn’t notice
They want you to notice because Sonic is releasing in theatres soon...
@@SSHGL I highly doubt that. I think John Baptist just really likes video games. He's played video game themes before.
Disappointed in colbert. He didn't seem interested
Colbert is nearly 60, I'm not surprised, IASIP audience is pretty young
i'm going to take this rare negative comment as an opportunity to say this: as a huuuuge fan of the colbert report, colbert comes off as a humungous douche on this show. every interview it feels like hes worried the guest is going to get more laughs than him or something, idk, it's just so off.
Even prior to his repeat Trump jokes, his interviews were these blank staring reactions.
@@player6769 yes its a rare negative comment because I'm a fan of Colbert too. That's why I was kinda disappointed because I'm a fan of IASIP as well and he didn't seem interested.
Colbert just kinda sucks nowadays.
So weird how he was inspired to make the opposite of Friends, when the show is closer to Seinfeld. Even when he's talking about how they're friends because no one else would be friends with them. Hits so close to Seinfeld. Also did they just close this out with a piano cover of Sonic?
Absolutely LOVE that Sonic cover by the band in the outro!
