As a viewer in the 18-24 demographic, I must say Stephen really spoke to me during the BKAD. Can’t pinpoint what it was… just something about the way he said, “Who’s watching my show?”… just felt like he was speaking my language. That’s what I call hard-hitting journalism.

BKAD! Yay! The whole episode was terrific, but I heart BKAD. And the phone message is a riot. I love this show.

I believe the voice at OOPS-JEWEL might be Colbert’s. Sounds very similar to his voice from the Exit 57 Marriage Counseling sketch, especially as it gets “breathy” at the end.

I’ve noticed that when they have two guests on, they often skip the TOC. I would imagine it’s to save time.

Ok, it was a tough call for me between BKAD and OOPS – JEWEL. And the message is hilarious! I ended up voting for BKAD because it’s one of my favorite segments and last night’s was particularly funny. Poor guy looked so nervous and uncomfortable, but it was just so funny. “How’s your black person?”, “Who’s watching my show?!”, the appearance of sweetness and the leg wrestling all had me laughing so hard I had to watch the segment again to make sure I heard everything. Oh I hope more Reps go on the show now!

I wonder whose voice it is.

Oh, BKAD, how I have missed you! It was even better with the appearance by Sweetness, but the leg wrestling completely did me in. Stephen’s anything-for-a-laugh approach to his work still amazes me sometimes.

I really missed the Table of Contents last night. I could understand why they didn’t do it for the “Colbert & Colmes” show on Monday, but the show last night felt incomplete without it. The Table of Contents sets the tone for the entire show, and those tag lines at the end are often some of the funniest lines.

ETA: Wow, I just got a weird error message when I posted this. But the comment went through, so I guess it’s okay?

I don’t often get to watch TCR at its original air time, but I was up late last night and had to watch it. The BKAD segment was hilarious and the Congressman seemed to be enjoying himself. The leg wrestling was great (who wouldn’t want to leg wrestle with Stephen?). For those who haven’t called OOPS JEWEL yet, do so immediately. Welcome back, Stephen! We’ve missed you.
