    Stephen Colbert took over as host of The Late Show on Tuesday, Sept. 8, 2015. Colbert is best known for his work as a television host, writer, actor, and producer, and best known for his charity work teaching English as a second language on Tunisian date farms. Prior to joining the CBS family -- and being officially adopted by network president Les Moonves -- Colbert helmed “The Colbert Report,” which aired nearly 1,500 episodes and required Stephen to wear nearly 1,500 different neckties. The program received two Peabody Awards, two Grammy Awards, and several unwelcome shoulder massages. It won two Emmys for Outstanding Variety Series in 2013 and 2014, both of which appear to have been lost in the move. Colbert is pronounced koʊlˈbɛər, according to Wikipedia. His understudy is William Cavanaugh, who will be hosting The Late Show approximately one third of the time. Good luck, Bill!"

    Holy shit Key is animated I feel like I'd go insane after 5 minutes of conversing with him. its like he has 50 different comedic responses and opinions to every piece of dialogue and he's tweaking out either trying to figure out which one is the best or trying to convey all of them at once. Is this what improv does to people? Dude looks like he did like 6 lines of blow in the bathroom before coming out and just wants to explode out of his seat and start doing a stream-of-conscious stand up show while doing jumping jacks on Stephen's desk. Like damn

    I'm guessing "Hans Christian Yes Anderson" is a reference to Jon Anderson, the lead singer of Yes who went by the name "Hans Christian" in some of his super early early recordings before Yes was made.

    • @bentonmitchell2440
      @bentonmitchell2440 8 років тому +10

      Actually it's more likely a play on Hans Christian Anderson, the famous author who wrote things like The Little Mermaid, Emperor's New Clothes, The Ugly Duckling, etc.

    • @BusyCasual
      @BusyCasual 8 років тому +3

      I can see that. The "Yes" that is thrown in there is what made me believe he was referring to Jon Anderson. That combined with the other stuff.

    I feel like "Han(d)s Christian Yes Anderson" is definitely a play on Yes' original singer Jon Anderson on top of what Kee and Stephen said. Jon Anderson, the lead singer of Yes, before forming the band in 1968, made some music recordings under the pseudonym Hans Christian Anderson.
