As DB indicated in an earlier post, we are going to be highlighting some of your favorite 2008 ‘Colbert Report’ moments this week. We are also going to do five Klassic Kolbert posts instead of the usual four, so look for a bonus Klassic Kolbert on Friday night.
Stephen Colbert did an amazing job of entertaining us during the WGA strike. The two minute standing ovation on January 7, the late night feud, and the National Treasure segments were all mentioned in the comments; but, I am featuring the episode with Malcolm Gladwell and Andrew Young because it received the most “votes” of all the shows that were taped during the strike.
Please enjoy! Videos after the cut!
Thank you! This last week is the hardest–at least I had the Advent calendar to amuse me until Christmas.

I have to say that these are the best episodes of the year. Some of the best that I’ve seen in the 2 years that I have been watching the Colbert Report! Thank you for posting this. I loved the Advent calendar too.
6 days to go! Hopefully that will go fast.

That 2-minute standing ovation was so awesome.
And boy was this an amazing episode all-around.

Where is the 2-minute standing ovation? I didn’t see it in the first segment and tried looking on the official site.

I provided a link to it in the text of my post above. If you click on “The two minute standing ovation on January 7,” it should take you there. I also included links to the late night feud and a remix of the National Treasure segments in the post. There are a lot of fun things to watch. :-)

It wasn’t from this Klassic Kolbert episode, but Jenny with a Y linked to it up there ^^ before all the embedded videos, as sort of an honorable mention.
