Stephen Colbert took over as host of The Late Show on Tuesday, Sept. 8, 2015. Colbert is best known for his work as a television host, writer, actor, and producer, and best known for his charity work teaching English as a second language on Tunisian date farms. Prior to joining the CBS family -- and being officially adopted by network president Les Moonves -- Colbert helmed “The Colbert Report,” which aired nearly 1,500 episodes and required Stephen to wear nearly 1,500 different neckties. The program received two Peabody Awards, two Grammy Awards, and several unwelcome shoulder massages. It won two Emmys for Outstanding Variety Series in 2013 and 2014, both of which appear to have been lost in the move. Colbert is pronounced koʊlˈbɛər, according to Wikipedia. His understudy is William Cavanaugh, who will be hosting The Late Show approximately one third of the time. Good luck, Bill!"

It's hilarious that Americans think "they won" WWII. It's actually quite insulting to the countries that stood up against the Nazi's long before you decided to help and that was only because the Japanese turned up at your doorstep. Also, the best Batman was played by a British actor. The current Superman is British. The previous Spider-Man was British and the current Spider-Man is British lol.

ATOM The Allied Nations all one, if you really want to get down to it the soviets were the main contributor

[@x12danx]

Britain was on its last legs before the US and western states intervened, getting bombed on the daily. Even before the declaration of war, the US was supplying Britain with vital aid and resources The US didn't single handily win the war but It definitely saved Britain from assured destruction.

[@MonkeyspankO]

unfortunately you're all wrong, the USSR won WW2, sad but true

[@3ADWOLF]

Dan Sagawaga the British were considerably outnumbered yet they were withstanding them. That's exactly my point, the Americans helped but act like they can claim ownership of it when there were many countries fighting long before they turned up.

[@streglof]

funny how some people seem to think that justifies all the shit the US did after that.

[@Vrig]

Bobby G And neither did America do so out of the kindness of their heart. America knew that if Europe fell, there was nothing stopping a future war vs the Axis powers. Stop patting yourselves on the back for something you did not do because of humanitarian reasons and more significantly for something that was a team effort. The US alone would stand no chance vs the axis powers. Look at the numbers.

[@Lyle-bw3nx]

LOL NICE

[@ericacrombie9035]

LOL the baseball cap thing is the same in Australia. Well obviously some people wear them but it's mostly just children. You rarely see fully grown men wearing them. But in the US it's totally normal to see a 30 or 40 year old man wearing one.

[@MrRwk314]

We joined 2 years after the war started... it lasted for about 7 years. We were there for the bulk of it. It's not our fault Europe has been fighting over land for centuries. Our country used to mind our own business and trade with others, until you cunts started fighting.

[@SNORKYMEDIA]

no you preferred to fight each other like us

[@danepotmo2513]

The US was in the midst of an economic depression and wasn't a colonial nation (the US's military was smaller than Romania's in 1939) with a massive standing military. WWII looked precisely like the same 90 billion other European Imperial wars that had infected Europe for centuries, and cost Americans needless deaths in WWI. This bullshit about "pure evil" wasn't fully known until 1945 moron, to wrap Britain up in righteousness is laughable considering this. If Germany was some sort of "pure evil" that had to be stopped in British minds, they wouldn't have engaged in the "Phoney War", shruggingly sacrificing Poland, and giving Germany a full head of steam before reacting. It's a clever way how you just ignore reality and the reactions and factors which actually determined the reactions of allies. The US was pouring aid to Europe, taking up defense of perimeter Europe and building up its forces well before (The US signed the Atlantic Charter IN 1941 BEFORE PEARL HARBOR MORON) Pearl Harbor dipshit. Your sense of history is ignorant and infantile. In fact, you essentially know nothing about WWII. The US gave as much as it could, as soon as it could. The US was in Africa in 1942 (American commanders wanted to assault Europe in 42, it was Churchill who, wisely, wanted the US to start in AFrica and cinch down on Germany towards Europe like a "closing fist"), it had already been sending aid, defending Iceland, building for war since Britain finally decided to fight after dithering during The Phoney War. It was Britain and France's moronic, botched, handling of Germany following WWI which created the very conditions which gave rise to the Third Reich and British and French dawdling in the opening stages of WWII which prolonged it

'Mid-Atlantic' is the early to mid-20th Century accent adopted by the New England aristocracy, intellectuals and actors that is a mix of British and American pronunciation, which is why we can't place FDR's accent today. Sideshow Bob on the Simpsons has one.

[@kills26]

I see a lot of people commenting about the ww2 joke. As a Brit, I don't mind Americans thinking that. I just hope Americans remember Four things. ONE: America only entered the war after Germany declared war on them. TWO: Germany was developing a nuke, and it's target was going to be America, New York, and DC were the likely targets. THREE: Germany wanted peace with the UK, Hitler respected the British Empire, and wanted nothing more than to be Allies with GB, he would have made peace any day of the week. FOUR: America drove the UK to the brink of bankruptcy, we had food rationing for 10 years after the war ended as we had to sell everything we made to pay back the USA. Everything the US supplied to the UK with was sold at an inflated cost. The USA enjoyed a Golden age from the wealth made during the war. Make what ever conclusion you will of these facts, if you still think you saved us I wont argue.

[@kills26]

mdevilb 1: I get that you are making some jokes. 2: 90% of my care comes from the fact that I think history is important. Sadly a lot of people these days don't pay enough attention to it. 3: Do you really think that your country is the best in the world, or are you just saying that to be patriotic. Honestly I don't think America is the best country, and I don't think my own country is the best either. But if you actually belive that then that must be nice for you, I am a little jelly of this opinion.

[@SF-wx1bu]

Contrary to general or public belief (often via Hollywood) no one country won the Second World War. The sacrifice was huge from all the allied forces. It was a team effort, no one life given was more or less valuable than the other. Britain was desperate for America's help and in December 1941 they joined the combined effort. Our great and grandparents generations paid a huge price for both world wars. It's sad to see Stephen's remark to Emily has been taken out of context (judging by the comments).

The "Mid-Atlantic" accent was popular in early 20th century among the American upper class and actors. It was basically a combination of British and American. It was not a natural accent, it was only used by people who were trained to do so.

I think British people generally like Americans and like a lot of American culture. Of course, this is not in evidence in KZbin comments when it's all about the patriotism, which Americans are infinitely more convincing at. But the whole 'we saved you in WWII' thing . . . oh dear, Stephen, I hope that was satirical.

[@luisebritta3869]

"Quite good" in Germany is actually a compliment. "It was quite good" is probably more of a compliment than simply saying "It was good". ;)

[@christine3649]

That depends entirely on how you translate it. If it stands for "ziemlich" then yes, it was more than just good. If it stands for "ganz" then it wasn't trash but it wasn't a masterpiece either. And if it stands for "wirklich" or "echt" then it was, indeed, excellent. It might still differ from region to region. Plus, you'd need to consider what intonation was used.

[@luisebritta3869]

I mean, of course it also depends on how you say it. An enthusiastic "Es war echt ganz gut" is likely worth more than a matter-of fact "Es war gut".

[@christine3649]

"Es war echt ganz gut" emphasises that you're surprised by how good it was. Please don't get me wrong, I don't mean to offend you. My point is, it's problematic to make such a general statement. It's a massive pet peeve of mine since I'm a translator and interpreter. There are a multitude of different versions you could use to translate "quite" and it all depends on context (and target group).

[@ninjafruitchilled]

Same in Australia, we tend to understate things, so "it was quite good" or "it was pretty good", probably means "it was very good" :). Like if you ask someone how they are and they say "not bad", they mean "I am fine, thank you" :).

The interesting thing is that “quite” CAN be used as an amplifying adjective in British English, but isn’t always. Examples: “Quite wonderful” = “excellent” “Quite good” = “just above mediocre” “Quite lovely” = “very lovely” “Quite attractive” = “above average looking, but not stunning” “Quite” as an amplifier rather than diminutive is now associated more with the upper classes.

Nilguiri There is... any accent that is used in Great Britain. There are many British accents (17 common ones I think?)

[@Nilguiri]

Ariel Steinsaltz "There are many British accents". Yes, exactly, probably a lot more, but that does nothing to narrow it down though. She is from London, so her accent is more accurately described as an "English" accent which is generally understood to be an accent from south east England. More specifically it is an RP accent (a posh, south east English accent, like the Queen's). I know that there are many English accents, too, but at least you exclude Welsh, Irish and Scottish. Would you call a Belfast or a Glasgow accent a "British accent", too? I certainly wouldn't but they are just as "British" as Emily's accent. I admit that perhaps it's a bit pedantic to point this out, but I don't think many people in the UK would ever refer to a "British accent", it is far too generic. It's more of an American thing.

What a... GREAT!!!... guest she is! Don't know any of her other work, but I was amazed that she pulled off her role in Sicario.

I watch Emily Blunt’s movies....I don’t like it,.............. *I LOVE IT!!!!!* And also I love how polite Emily is, even at the end when Stephen usually always says “Please stick around” and his guests usually never reply. But Emily said “I will” and idk, ahhh! I love her ❤️ ♥️

[@bonnie.duncan]

i was ALWAYS the only bonnie in school...i FINALLY met another bonnie when i was 30 years old, at work...it was so exciting!! for both of us!!

[@Casablumpkin01]

Two effortlessly charming people having a riff- good stuff.

[@carolinaflor]

I think she's gonna be a great Mary Poppins. Looking forward to it! 😀

[@jayskeen6576]

Very true. I was in London for 2 weeks, not a single baseball cap.

[@ericcharles8081]

Emily is amazing so talented and I truly hope she becomes a Dame one day. She does us British people proud ❤

[@matthewmcneany]

Speaking of accents as a British person, watching a British person who's clearly lived in the states for a long time talk is properly weird because nobody in England actually talks like she does.

[@jackkrauss]

Well she's probably worked with a dialect coach for roles too.

Emily Blunt, Katy Perry and Zooey Deschanel: the triplets that were separated at birth.

You forgot Gabrielle Anwar. :)

Don’t insult Emily

[@ganteng3]

And Marion Cotillard. But Marion and Emily are definitely top two tho

ganteng3 in certain angles yea 😂😂 but she looks a little older than the rest

To everyone complaining about the WWII thing, it was a joke. Calm. tha fuck. down.

[@halifaxx55]

I was in a classy cafe in London a couple weeks ago. I loved it!! They were so nice to me and answered my questions about the English Breakfast tea! But I wasn't wearing a baseball hat, I agree it's a bit childish wearing it but hey

[@megmo05]

Bloody brilliant she is!

“You sounding very mid-Atlantic” 😂😂

[@Julietta1794]

"We saved you in WW2"... Can Americans be any more arrogant?😂

[@DeeHughes]

you're clearly not familiar with Colbert.

[@steamingwillybeaming]

Dee Hughes shes most likely been educated in england. forgive her ignorance

[@barbaro267]

Some of us are. Just like some people from the UK still see their own country as the "motherland" and therefore superior to the USA. It's just a matter of pride. A lot of us have it, but not everyone shows it in the way that Stephen shows it.

[@Julietta1794]

steamingwillybeaming have another guess;)

[@jaredlangley6924]

Yes! Don't even act like that war was winable with out us.

[@4allicare]

can emily blunts mom be a guest? she sounds like a riot!

Emily Blunt's mother sounds like the Queen of England.

[@universalconquest4447]

Emily Blunt's mother sounds like a stuck-up and arrogant Brit, and a bit blunt for my liking.

[@mmonroe8253]

She has the best laugh...♥️

[@Turbo9987]

Emily Blunt is so beautiful. she's gonna make a great mary poppins

[@tonygray7804]

Just seen the film - I confidently predict at least an Oscar nod for her this year...

[@kautilyabora2432]

her laugh is so cute and honest

[@MorganMingo70]

Stephen, Mid-Atlantic was that early Hollywood accent used in many Turner Classics. From what I've read, they believed the combination of an American accent with that of British pronunciation, made them sound more refined.

[@grinehard7]

She is a true blessing!

[@liferiot]

Emily Blunt is the shit.

[@Fabzil]

Omg, such a pleasant interview to watch. Incredible peacefull and joyfull energy :)

[@ThatgirlnamedJodie]

I wear a baseball hat in England; I've been a Cubs fan since 2006 and have 4 Cubs caps (one autographed by Ryne Sandberg). I've just ordered my World Series Champions cap.

[@razmataz13drums]

i think the compliments thing is that its all in the tone. You understand from Emily's tone that when people say 'you were good' thats a good compliment because its with a genuine tone. And I didnt realise 'quite' meant something a little different in that context, quite mean a little. So saying quite good is just like saying it was fine, its good not great, a bit more than a shrug

[@amandalopesss]

2018?? I never get tired to see this interview. Emily is just perfect. Love her ❤

[@museamuse8745]

I just love this woman so much! She is incredible.

I love that Stephen told her how it is. “We saved you during WW2.” That was awesome. They actually tricked us into war. They better appreciate us.

[@chrisnorton4382]

Tricked? I seem to recall the Japanese bombed Pearl Harbor and the Germans declared war on the USA shortly after, or don't they teach that anymore?

[@MrsLizziee]

@@chrisnorton4382 Exactly! They don't give a shit about us until Japan attacked them. They teach that all over Europe.

[@RyanGiggsOBE]

Well, it was more Russia and India that sort of helped us win it.

[@akaichacha]

Actually more like France was saved by US. UK was doing fine during Battle of Britain

[@blaser80]

Yes, Germany pretty much gave up on invading Britain after 3-4 month Battle of Britain.

[@fanpackers4]

Ever heard of the lend-lease act? Kinda used a lot of American materials during the battle of Britain. Also don't forget about WWI when America supplied a ton of ammunitions

[@MrDragon1968]

You're wrong my friend. Lend-Lease was signed in March 1941. The Battle of Britain took place in the summer of 1940. So, no, Lend-Lease had nothing to do with winning the B of B. In fact Lend-Lease didn't have any significant effect on the war until about 1943. Prior to Lend-Lease Britain was paying for material support in gold reserves, and by giving up territory and technology. Lend-Lease was enacted because Britain could have gone bankrupt eventually, but it didn't save the UK from the attempted Nazi invasion. The RAF and the Royal Navy did.

[@fanpackers4]

MrDragon1968 I stand corrected. The lend lease act did not have any impact on the Battle of Britain. The RAF deserves all the credit there. However, the Act is responsible for allowing vital supplies to flow to Britain during the Battle of Atlantic at great cost of American lives. Given Britain being an island nation, who knows what would have happened without these supplies from America. Churchill himself said the Battle of Atlantic was the dominating factor all through the war.

[@mickeye6428]

You are grossly historically ignorant. Curling up in a fetal position is not "doing fine."

[@manuelpolanco6109]

Emily Blunt reminds me why some men get married. She's something else.
