The Colbert Réport

The Colbert Réport premiered last night and, as expected, was freakin' hilarious.

Stephen Colbert is well suited to this type of thing and The Réport makes an excellent addition to Comedy Central's fake news coverage.

Most surprising, though, was how quirky Stone Phillips turned out to be. Maybe it was just the witty, and rather insulting, questions and remarks Colbert was presenting him with, but the guy was not at all what I expected.

Among my favorite parts of last night's show were the big "C's" rant on former Reagan White House Press Secretary James Brady's opposition to guns and the fact that the show isn't actually called The Colbert Report, but rather The Colbert Réport, with the "t" in report mimicking the silent "t" in Colbert.

All in all, a very good show and definitely something I intend to keep watching.
