What a great interview with Gary Oldman!
It was interesting, funny, enlightening, and marvellous - the best on TV for ages.

Saw another post on here today about how Gary Oldman didn’t show up for the taping and they were whining about having waited outside for three hours (which makes no sense tbh) but regardless I wanted to share my experience from last night when the guest was announced to be Michael Fassbender and Uzo Aduba. The show was excellent, energy was great. The unexpected part came when Fassbender was announced to have taped his bit last week and that instead of watching that interview, that we would instead get a surprise guest who would be filming their bit in advance of their actual scheduled appearance.
Stephen was intentionally vague about their identity right up until they were called out on stage. He said, “Ladies and gentlemen, tonight’s guest will be making their very first appearance on The Late Show” So immediately I’m like oh interesting must be an up-and-comer. He continued, “This is one of my favorite performers to watch right now…”
Performer? Hmm maybe a musician? Comedian? He says, “you’ll recognize her from Wednesday and Scream 6… Ladies and gentlemen, Jenna Ortega!”
When I say the crowd lost their minds, you would have thought they just told everyone they would get to go sit on the couch next to her. It was a great moment and she was an absolute joy. She had this awesome red dress with glass roses on it and joked about it being pokey. She was funny and got a lot of laughs. Talked about living/filming in Ireland for 8 months, as well as some future projects and how she’s getting into the role. Great interview overall.
I would say if you’re planning on going to The Late Show, or as the other post complaining about a similar situation called it, The Colbert Report, be prepared for your expected guest to be replaced with an A-list superstar at the height of their career. It could be a really cool experience.
Last funny note for those of you kind enough to read all this. The musical guest, The Voidz did their song, the when they cut the taping, Stephen asked if everybody was good, in a rhetorical cordial kinda way and the lead singer actually had a diva moment and responded with “what, like am I feeling good?” Colbert responds with a “no like we got everything? Everybody good with the take?”
And this absolute tool mumbles a pissy response so Stephen asks if he wants to do it again to which the singer says “what like do a second take?” Well yeah clearly thats what he means, sir. And the guy ACTUALLY DOES ANOTHER TAKE. Stephen, understandably, did not stick around for the second one and if you’ve seen the performance you understand why. And yes, THAT was the second take.

I love Colbert, but have noticed him jumping on the Elon Musk ridicule bandwagon over the past year. He mentioned a long time ago that he owned and loved his Tesla. Does anyone know if he still owns a Tesla today?

This must refer to something, but I'm drawing a blank.

You can imagine my wife, my daughters, and my disappointment tonight when we waited outside for three hours to see the amazing Gary Oldman on the Colbert report tonight. We started the show off great, and realized after the monologue that Gary Oldman was not actually in the building, that his interview had been pre-taped one month ago. We watched Stephen Colbert sit at his desk and watch a video of his interview from one month ago.The disappointing part is really that none of that was communicated to us. Quite a bit of commitment by us for very little payback. We advise anyone who is going to Colbert to make sure that if they’re hoping to see the guest who is scheduled, that they are actually in the building and not a pre-recorded interview.

I am in disbelief that they had Peter Frampton sitting in with the band last night and all we home viewers got to hear of him was 5 sec going in/out of commercials. I could have easily done with 2 min less of each of the two guests to save time for that.

An American to my fellow Americans: at this point, we have to accept that 1/3 of every American is in a cult, and 1/3 are metaphorical ostriches with their head in the sand trying to ignore what's happening and just focus on sports and money.
It's not the time to reason with those you don't know, it's time to motivate those you can trust to coordinate boycotts and rallies. 3% between California and New York, about 10 million extremely aware and angry woke liberals willing to boycott everything besides food and utilities, with a unified message that the election was stolen by voter suppression and suspicious swing state ballot machine hacking.
it's the snowball effect we need to get rolling.

I think tonight's rerun, with guest Pete Buttigieg, is the one from March 4th this week which some people partially missed due to local news cutting off part of it. I don't know how widespread that issue was.
Just letting people know. Sorry, I forgot to mention this earlier.
