Stephen Colbert brings his signature satire and comedy to THE LATE SHOW with STEPHEN COLBERT, the #1 show in late night, where he talks with an eclectic mix of guests about what is new and relevant in the worlds of politics, entertainment, business, music, technology and more. Featuring bandleader Louis Cato and “THE LATE SHOW band,” the Peabody Award-winning and Emmy Award-nominated show is broadcast from the historic Ed Sullivan Theater. Stephen Colbert took over as host, executive producer and writer of THE LATE SHOW on Sept. 8, 2015.

They should surprise Jon Stewart heckling him from a balcony as Statler & Waldorf.

[@Shadoweclipse1386]

That would be so amazing!!!!

[@vickywitton1008]

That would be perfect!

[@lethargogpeterson4083]

That would be hilarious.

[@lightningwingdragon973]

They look old enough

[@SamLowryDZ-015]

With Stewart as Milton Berle

[@petejams7340]

I would love it if they went back as correspondents for one night

[@AaronTheHarris]

Only if he went back in character

[@derricklafrance9440]

Vance DeGeneres was the best.

[@jbearclowater]

I like that for Stephen's birthday the Late Show was just like "We'll bring Steve Carell by and we'll basically just film you two hanging out for a while"

[@MD-wk3gj]

Their friendship is everything I wish I had in my life.

[@MrBxberto]

Very powerful comment. I hope you find it, or what you already have turns into it 🙏🏾

[@leanoramccarthy7726]

Awww, I get that!! I do hope u find it! Totally unrelated: I'm also awesome, hilarious and witty. Sooo... Whenever u need me... 😁😉🥰

[@pdoylemi]

Open your eyes - you MIGHT already have it.

[@DaTux91]

This is so "I don't wanna go to work on my birthday and I know it's my good buddy's day off, so let me call in sick and invite him over." It's perfect 😊

[@mackeymintle66]

Old friends…sit on a talk show, like bookends.❤

[@Joew99001]

Nice S&G reference

[@ericthompson3982]

Ha!

[@DNTXPCTMCH]

I love that Steve was the only guest. I can't get enough of these two friends giggling. 😂❤

[@JamesMatthewGallagher]

Ok, here's the pitch: Steve Carell, Stephen Colbert, John Stewart, and John Oliver in a buddy road trip comedy. COULDN'T FAIL!!! 🙂

[@rhaegarrubey4488]

It’s so endearing when they just laugh with each other like there’s no audience. That’s real n I love it.

[@Thiesi]

CBS should just broadcast two hours straight of them chatting. Killer ratings guaranteed.

[@itsallGudmin]

I love how they're instantly their young selves again around each other 🥹🥹

[@TheChonaman]

What i love so much is the synergy between these brilliant comedians. They obviously have inspired each other over the years, have love and respect for each other, Jon Stewart and Krasinski too. What an amazing life they've shared, all to our benefit.

[@susyhammond5196]

Your idea about the Odd Couple is fantastic. DO IT.

[@BrendanPeterMcVeigh]

Carell & Colbert should do Waiting For Godot.

[@zappa5162]

That was my first thought too! They'd be perfect for it.

[@tubabelle]

and Jon Stewart could play Lucky!

[@JohnWestIV]

I love when they are on together, it's entertaining and a bit heart-warming to just watch these two friends talk to each other.

[@robertlee3778]

not all men are giants. not all giants are seen. These are two Giants, friends in loving embrace. Thank you for this!

[@djevans614]

Go to the daily show and do the bit "waiters who are nauseated by food." That was the best bit EVER. YOU BOTH WERE SO FUNNY.

[@JimmyNuisance]

Criminally short interview! I will see you in court, Steven and Stephen.

[@nopenope5042]

We find the defendants, missed as a pair. Sentenced to life in nostalgia.

[@FirestormX9]

That had strong LegalEagle vibes

[@mlr4524]

There are several other segments! Check the main page for them if youtube autosuggest doesn't bring them up.

[@SoberOKMoments]

Lovely to see genuine friendship on the airways. I so appreciate them both - and, of course, Jon.

[@hoightb]

Its so great to see 2 wonderfully talented and hilarious people as genuine friends having a real chat for our entertainment! Happy birthday stephen! 👏🏻👍

[@document6]

Honestly the amount of love they two have for each other you don’t even see in most marriages 💯💖

[@jbearclowater]

They should absolutely just show up at The Daily Show some night. Take John Oliver with them, too. If Samantha Bee is available too, take her along.

[@missg.5940]

Even better, add Kimmel to the gang, after a few drinks, go hangout at Trump’s trial. His mind would lose its last seven cells.😅

[@TheGiggleMasterP]

These comedy geniuses are almost too much for my mortal eyes and ears. Truly, nearly too much laugher for one person to bear. 🎉

[@Katseye102]

There is something to be said about a friendship where you can just laugh at the foibles in your lives and neither one takes offense. Gosh that’s rare! !!! ❤️❤️

[@zingleraster9124]

We need a lot more of that in the world right now!!

[@xXZombieHunter0802Xx]

That Dorian Gray beard coloring joke was next level, had me losing it

[@batgurrl]

Great guest for Stephen’s 60th birthday. Jon Stewart back ln The Daily Show on Monday’s has revitalized the show. These two, just popping in would be comedic alchemy 🩷

[@danielgregory3295]

Wouldn't it exceed some dangerous critical mass of comedy?😊❤

[@celestialnubian]

It would be wild if they just show up randomly at the morning writer's meeting and just started doing their old jobs ala Castanza.

[@anish3183]

Always a great interview with colbert and carrell.

[@aikonekoluv5456]

so heart warming to see their beautiful and sincere friendship.

[@judybutler8137]

This is one of the BEST Stephen Colbert shows…. EVER !!!!!

[@krisfrederick5001]

I love the entire Daily Show family ❤

[@Dominicn123]

Of course

[@vickywitton1008]

I love these two so much and together they are magical!❤

[@Sotirislicious]

I love these two too much. So wholesome.

[@drtmuir]

They always say this, but they never do it. 😢

[@susanfarley1332]

Imagine the both of them at a party you were at after a couple of drinks and everyone was chillin and they start talking to each other and you die laughing.

[@francescaa8331]

You two should show up at the daily show, yes!!! Do it.

[@brandonwirtz2308]

Oh, poor Jon...... He is going to be wondering whether those boxes were there 5 minutes ago, every monday night for the foreseeable future...

[@TheBusyJane]

The cuteness scale is dogs, cats, steve and stephen.

[@GPS379]

I wish I had one friend 😂 I envy you both

[@robg7892]

HES GOT A SNOOPY SPEEDMASTER! 🥰

[@toferj7441]

Get the old Daily Show band back together for one night!! 🤘😆

[@lazurusknight2724]

The Daily Show, The Musical

[@innocrates]

Jokes aside, Steve would do a great Paul Simon!

[@stubbysidwell]

I'm pretty sure Carrell just confirmed a Cobert Carrell '28 presidential ticket...

[@angeladoll9785]

These treasures don't deserve such a curse

[@caronstout354]

With the rest of Strike Force 5 as White House advisors...

[@stubbysidwell]

@caronstout354 Now I want to watch Space Force again and old school Daily Show.

[@HimanshuSharma-oy9ss]

Steve carell is the ultimate daddy crush !❤

[@sammymarcy6029]

Steve could move bricks, after all he built a ark in his back yard

[@lexshizumdot2115]

Friendship is such a beautiful thing

[@blackpointmaine]

Happy Birthday, my friend. The rizz is real.

[@terrihartbarger]

Magic is real ❤

[@ArkaidDeims]

Broccoli Rob has great pipes, said Phish's Trey Anastasio

[@PhillyFrank1]

Dorian Gray would be an excellent name for a salt-a-pepper beard color.

[@tracybosworth1033]

I know!!

[@potterpotty01]

please do this, just turn up on the daily show. you're all in NY it's probably only a few blocks!

[@benitomichel471]

Jon’s pristine voice can be enjoyed in his duet with Stephen for “A Colbert Christmas”

[@nopenope5042]

Late show is great, and daily show is now….ok, but those old daily show days were truly untouchable.

[@asef]

Carrell and colbert daily show 😭 make it happen

[@micglou]

Wouldn't it be wonderful having Steve, Stephen and Jon do some sort of show together? Not a talk show, something cultural and just let them be their natural selves while experiencing it... I'd watch that.

[@angelod.pizzullojr.8971]

if anyone is looking for a remake of Grumpy Old Men...they'll be ready in about 10 years.

[@missytechlp]

That would be amazing ❤

[@jimmyispromo]

Just two best friends lol

[@thesunshinehome]

*I wish they would say what order these segmented interviews should be in - Part 1, Part 2 etc*

[@josephmoscrip2916]

Oh please. Oh please do theater together. I’ll buy a ticket and fly from Washington State just to see that show!

[@peterlundskow4061]

I think the Odd Couple take would be a great idea! Maybe you could do it as a charity event!

[@sparkythancztwise]

"I have some bricks to move in my back yard." Says the 60 year old to the 61 year old who's just said he'd work with him "at any time in any way" in context of Broadway musicals and stage comedy. 🤣

[@karinapinn2431]

❤ them both

[@chickrepelant]

what a bunch of sweeties

[@missg.5940]

I would like the three of them, and Kimmel, to show up at Trump’s trial 😮

[@nelsonlugo45]

Very very cool

[@papatroll9545]

Holy shit the most hilarious conversation on the show ever!

[@chrisandersen5635]

Watching these two riff off of one another flexing their improv muscles is pure gold. Carrell has Mondays off, they should totally go harass Stewart while he’s on air. The place would go bananas. 😂

[@nigelgreen9369]

Congratulationsa to both Stephen/Steven entering their 70th decade

[@pattinello]

Dorian Grey - that's this shade... totally get it

[@H.G.Wells-ishWells-ish]

Wait!!! Jon Stewart HAS done a musical. Remember his number: "Can I Interest You in Hanukkah?"

[@jawitten4]

This was an amazing connection! I’ve loved both of them and Jon since they all started! (Yes- I watched it when Craig Kilborne hosted). Can I please at golf with y’all? It’s totally okay. My husband knows all three of you are my “hall pass.” 🤣

[@ericbryant8986]

Carerll+Colbert Stoned

[@timothywayne3813]

Loved it.

[@brunopereira6789]

Hey, this isn't an interview! This is just two friends chatting and having a laugh together!

[@Thiesi]

And we loved every single bit of it.

[@kathrynbriggs-and-terrytufts]

Maybe Mr. Carell could get another guest spot where he can speak as well.

[@kolaiktomi]

Steve Carell as Charlie's dad in It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia would be an amazing episode. Imagine if he and DeVito are caught playing Nightcrawlers together in the intro. Would be so funny.

[@AjaySharma-me1sy]

Oh this friendship!!

[@nicolehutto4906]

John Stewart sang in Elmopalooza. It was decent

[@grapesofwraith1066]

Songs!

[@NewMessage]

Ist part seems to be missing, but hey.... We're used to watching them out of order.

[@datgrrl5698]

@newmessage ...we???... You're alone... your friends are imaginary...try turning off the black mirror and touching grass...and seek professional help...

[@miguelchristopher7234]

@@datgrrl5698 wow, take it easy on the injectables.

[@shaunrobson4278]

Does Steve Carell have just one LATE SHOW outfit ?

[@randallwillis5662]

Forget The Odd Couple. Given their time at Second City, we're talking The Sunshine Boys

[@kcha237]

Steve Carell is what you get to look like if you spend your whole life being unproblematic

[@jackson857]

I would love to see it.

[@heathercamera]

This is the funniest ever! 😂🎉

[@philbranagan3137]

Do THE ODD COUPLE on stage!

[@rockanroleropr3467]

Simon and Schuster and Garfunkel? 🤔

[@Me-on1tq]

Happy birthday stephen

[@nunyabizness6595]

If nothing else the kids will know Carrell for one of this best memes on youtube,: " No! No! No! Nooooo!!!"

[@judyhowe2082]

Love Steve...you two must do Odd Couple!😊🎉🎉🎉

[@monl3807]

No teleprompter needed 2:06

[@humor_mill]

1 more EVEN STEPHENS!!!

[@DAWS0NStream]

FR tho, give Carell a shave, and dye his hair, itd be like he just walked off of the set of Stan Almighty. Kudos!

[@DAWS0NStream]

yep, hope they do it, maybe not the garfunkle bit LOL.

[@cesarmadero05]

Please do an Even Stevphen bit, oh my God

[@RyanEglitis]

A thousand times THIS

[@cesarmadero05]

I didn't knew they did it again last night before the clip dropped to KZbin. I was the happiest man in the world. Thank you, men.

[@ann-mariemeyers9978]

I think they forgot the audience was there.

[@seanlavery0312]

Even Stevens/Stephens!!!!

[@jimf2525]

Do Jon Stewart Reunion!

[@elaithcraulnober3081]

Is it just my imagination or going into that commercial was the band playing Iron Maidens Wasted Years?

[@daeseongkim93]

nearly the same age, comedians, SC, similar last and first names
