(+) Yeah! (+)

Stephen Colbert is a great character.

But he's a SHITTY COMEDIAN.

Letterman > Colbert. ez

Here's what I, a Level 37 Sage, think of Stephen Colbert.

At least he's not as God awful and cringey as Jon Stewart

Here's what I, a Level 52 Rider of the Purple Sage, think about this Colbert:

His CC character was great, but I cared less when he dropped it.

Depends if he's pushing politics like a preacher pushes religion.

If he wants to have Letterman's longevity he should learn how to poke and prod and not come off like a jilted lover that got fat.

Conan comes across better because he is an actual comedian. He's got the timing and facial expressions down pat. Andy Richter is a perfect sidekick.

Jimmy Fallon does the most physical skits. His laugh pisses off some people because they say it's fake, but he always did that on SNL, too.

Kimmel is a mixed bag, but always has that smug demeanor. I'm surprised his liberal audience doesn't give him more shit for his time with Adam Carolla on The Man Show.

Trevor Noah might be decent one day. I liked his early standup, but he's a bit hard to watch now.

Kimmel is pretty funny, imo. I liked those old Cousin Sal skits.

Yeah, he is funny, but his style has a certain antagonistic vibe to it. His I ate all my kids' Halloween Candy prank and the Celebrities reading Mean Tweets represent what his comedy is about. They're often very funny, but they're built around the idea of getting people uncomfortable and upset, and the audience laughing at them because of it.

He was great in Strangers with Candy, Harvey Birdman, and his original show, but now he has gotten lame and goes after the lowest hanging fruit.

I'm gay.

I remember when he was on tough crowd as himself and was easily the least funny guy on the show. He is more successful than all those guys combined today...
