When news stories fall through the cracks, we here at Colbert News Hub catch them for a post we call “In the Press”.
Here’s hoping everyone’s Memorial day was nice. Did you visit any grave sites or were you in the mood for BBQ? Did you get the nice long weekend or did you have to work? Tip of the hat to those of you who did.
In this edition, some of Stephen’s recent subjects chime in on his treatment of them. Jon Stewart is making an impression in China.

Welcome to “A Look Back,” where we review and celebrate select clips from the overwhelmingly voluminous video catalog and the many splendid works of Stephen T. Colbert over the years.
Around 2004 or so Stephen was featured in a series of ads promoting the now defunct “Mr. Goodwrench” vehicle service program by General Motors. Stephen was brought on board to revive the program’s popularity, with quirky, funny ads that had our fearless host in an endless search for the real Mr. Goodwrench. The result are some commercials that are actually funny. Who would have thought that possible (oh, wait, it has Stephen in it, nevermind):
You can tell by the jokes that Stephen wrote much of the material himself (“What is this made of, metal?”). Also, the series of commercials gave rise to some truly fantastic bobblehead dolls, which you should avail yourself to if you have the green.

Welcome to CNH’s Water Cooler, where fellow Hubsters commiserate and comment on current events, or whatever you like, while our boys Jon and Stephen are away.
Happy Memorial Day! I hope that all of you had a great holiday weekend, kicking back, perhaps with the proverbial barbecue with the fam/friends, as we remember our fallen heroes. After all, honoring the troops is tops on Stephen’s priority list so it should be ours, too.
I spent the weekend in Minneapolis with my children at the Mall of America, watching them brave roller-coaster like rides for the first time in their young lives – with minimal, but slight and still quite palpable pangs of terror. All was well and as they are thoroughly exhausted and asleep, I now find myself penning my colb-friends as we prepare for what is sure to be an exciting viewing summer ahead. Let’s delve in.

MGM has acquired screen rights to ‘Things I’ve Learned From Women Who’ve Dumped Me’, the best-selling humor anthology edited by Ben Karlin. Script will be written by Kyle Pennekamp & Scott Turpel, who scripted the upcoming ‘Get A Job’. Karlin is the Emmy-winning former executive producer of The Daily Show and The Colbert Report. In the book, he drew on his own experiences and those of many other men to share that shame walk that has happened to every guy: getting dumped and trying to get over the humiliation.
The film will be produced by Karlin and Kevin Misher, who will cull the Dumped book for the ingredients to a male-oriented comedy.
