I am so excited for the return of Keith Olbermug! I have greatly missed His Hubris and Overweening Pride.

From the World’s Most Breathtaking short-shorts, to yet another illuminating Word segment, and a 3AM call from Wilford Brimley, last night’s episode was a cornucopia of Colbert goodness.

As someone who has family ties to Iran, and has visited the country numerous times, I always appreciate Stephen’s efforts to illuminate their ridiculously arbitrary laws and political goings-on. And, if it allows for Stephen to whip off his pants, drap them over the exalted C in the “The Colbert Report” sign, revealing his lovely gams, then all the better. I think more TV hosts should follow suit—your move, Jon Stewart and Jimmy Fallon.

Stephen’s relationship with Wilford Brimley is really complex, and somehow, very intimate. I don’t think even Tad the Building Manager can call up Colbert stoned out of his mind in the middle of the night and be treated with such tenderness.

And how about Mr. Olbermann? Also defying TV dress code conventions, flouting his new program on the Current TV. Stephen’s last significant Olbermann mention was in January, when he unsuccessfully attempted to absorb his audience and opinions. Now, it seems, Keith is well on his way to recreating Countdown in what is hopefully a good venue for him.

  • How do you like the taste of this, you Ahmadinejerks! Are these shorts getting you in the Makmood? (Editors note: yes.)
  • Even Lassie could beat Obama. Of course, she’d could never get the Repubican nomination. Helping Timmy out of that well is socialism.
  • Old Man McCain would be president if it wasn’t for you meddling kids!
  • But evidently, these young homeboys are too busy doing the Macarena and feeding their Tamgachis, while listening to Better Than Ezra on their Discmans.
  • Our elderly are getting baked. No wonder they are eating dinner at 4 o’clock in the afternoon.
  • Why are you so hard to work with? You are universally regarded as insane.
  • On a Friday night there is nothing I like nothing more than crackin’ open a cool one and watching 72 hours of brutal beatings and forced sodomies.

What did you think, Hubsters? Do that commenting thing you do!
