VIDEOS: Thursday, April 15, 2010
Here’s hoping that someone from the audience will come onto the site today to talk about that Bilderberg Group thing. The audience really seems to have reacted to it.
OMG! Space! Space astronaut training? In Houston? How fun is that?! Just knowing that he’s coming here to God’s Country (even if it is God-forsaken Houston) warms the cockles of my heart. I’m dreading the vomit comet scenes, but I’m sure the whole thing will be beyond awesome. Also, I’m allowed to slam Houston, I’m from Dallas, just like my friends in Houston are allowed to slam my home, the Plastic City. I would also like to ask the PR people to please, for the love of Baby Jesus, get us a high-res version of Stephen in an astronaut’s uniform.
Did anyone else catch the cameo of Michael Brumm on the Great Value Man Seed box? And the “volume” comment was just naughty.
You know it’s going to be a good interview when the interviewee starts the interview with “I’m glad I stretched before.” Also, I have real legs and can’t wear heels over 1″. She’s got some serious talent. I loved the flirty nature of the interview, and she seems like a really remarkable lady.
What did you think of the episode tonight?
- And imagine there’s no concrete ceiling in the way. That would be nice, too.
- The point, folk, is that space is an amazing expanse, full of mystery, adventure, and the frozen corpses of dogs and chimps.
- Although I would like to try an Apollo-peño popper.
- How can you send about sending people into space when your own health care bill doesn’t cover space madness?
- That effect cost $400,000. Thank you Axe Body Spray!
- Folks, I never thought I’d see the day when I’d want to go to Houston.
- Folks, I will be down there in May to show them my right stuff. And my left stuff. But it mostly goes to the right.
- And, in later issues, he paid Archie $1,000,000 to sleep with Veronica.
- Spoiler alert – that was just CGI. That interview really just looked like this. Andy Serkis is so gifted.
- I hate the program, but I’m a sucker for tote bags.
- To put that in perspective, folks, that is less than the number of Williamsburg residents who have tattoos of mermaids with TVs for heads.
- Hipster: No, I’m in a band called ‘I Filled Out The Census’.
- Just a quick side note to the ACLU – you might not want to make enemies of the people who own cancer.
- Why cure cancer if you can’t make a buck off of it? Last time I checked, the grateful thanks of all mankind is not legal tender at the Lamborghini dealership.
- If I do not patent my genes, anyone can make a cheap knockoff. And I do not want to walk into Wal-Mart one day to see them selling Great Value Man Seed. So to beat them to the punch, tonight I am proud to announce my own generic priced daddy butter, Formula 01 Liquid Genetic Material.
- I know what you’re thinking. You’re asking, Stephen, how do you keep the prices so low? Volume.
- I’m glad I stretched before the interview.
- Is there any chance there could be a Fake Breast Olympics? Because the ratings would be terrific for that!
- That is smoking hot. There ain’t nothing wrong with that photo.
- I’m glad you said that. I was going to call you the $6 million dollar woman, but I was afraid it would make you sound like a high priced hooker.
The CTists over at the colboard are undoubtedly happy in their pants after the Bilderberg remark.
“Volume” :)

I thought he said Build-A-Bear group and just stumbled on the last word. lol. I wonder what that was about…
It’s going to be so cool to see all the footage of him at space camp! How awesome that he was invited to go through the training program!
The guest was fantastic! I really enjoyed that interview.
Was it me, or did Stephen’s suit jacket look really large on him last night? I thought there was going to be a bit where he took it off and was wearing something silly underneath. haha.

“I thought he said Build-A-Bear group…”
Hahaha me too! I ended up googling it immediately after he said it. :P

Full disclosure: While I didn’t think he said Build-a-bear, I did have to Google it. I love me a good conspiracy theory.

After I read about the group on Wikipedia, it made me wonder all the more what the joke was about. I did love his “You owe me, buddy!” comment to the member in the audience, though!

After modding at the colboard, I know ALL ABOUT the Bilderberg people, LOL.

That gray suit always looks ill-fitting to me. It sorta bugs me whenever he wears it.

Space astronaut training! Oh this is going to be FUN. Is it May yet? :D
I love how Stephen jumps on any and every chance to make fun of Richard Branson. Those jokes are never not funny. And I really enjoyed the Aimee Mullins interview – she seems really confident and personable. Along with being completely unitimidated by Stephen, it made for an excellent interview.
BIG kudos to the wardrobe department these past couple of weeks – Stephen’s suit and tie combinations have been absolutely fantastic. The grey suit/yellow tie last night was especially wonderful! :]

I loved the light blue and maroon one he wore earlier this week with the light blue shirt. This week’s Fangirl Suit Report should have some really good discussion!

Overall, I thought this was the weakest episode of the week. Just didn’t really click for me.
However, on the plus side, the interview was excellent. I’m looking forward to space training. But, best of all,the line about the Vatican forgiving the Beatles, so that’s why the alter boys are singing “Help” and maybe the greatest phrase Colbert’s ever utter: daddy butter! :P

The Vatican has forgiven the Beatles. That explains why the altar boys are singing “Help!”
Absolutely brilliant! I was sorry the theme song cut off the audience’s cheering that line.

I really can’t wait for the astronaut training segments! Those are going to be comedic gold!

Oh man! Stephen is training for space travel!! I can’t wait to see what crazy segments he comes up with. Jeez…first Iraq and now space training? The man is unstoppable, I tell you.

I voted for the Aimee Mullins interview. I think it’s so great what she’s accomplished and she is also such a great it-getter, selecting those red-white-and-blue heels in honor of Stephen (I couldn’t wear heels like that either, and my legs are okay as well DB).
I think it’s so great that they have created Prosthetic limbs that are not only flexible but natural looking. I also loved Aimee calling Stephen’s glasses a “Prosthetic.”
I can’t wait to see Stephen go to the Space Center next month.
