Yeah I kinda like him, he should get his own late show or something, idk tho it’s my opinion

[@creativedesignation7880]

They studio audience being back still feels surreal to me, but at least Evie is still there to ease me into what we call "normal".

[@jakeoztan]

I was in the audience this night! It did indeed feel surreal

[@lauralishes1]

Jeez Stephen really is proud of himself that he broadcast a few shows from a small room. He's still speaking about it like he survived trekking through the Congo or a the Sahara desert alone with no food or water.

[@antonialove2671]

I want Stephen to interview Evie! That would be the sweetest segment ever and could heal the world. ❤️

[@robinaddis-vaughn7271]

They did a sit down interview with Oprah a few years back. It was when they were home here in SC, they're from the Low Country of the State (Charleston, I think). It's a fun interview to watch. I think it was right after he became the host of The Late Night show or he could have still been on Comedy Central. Anyway, it's fun to watch them together.

[@PixelsLtd]

I love Evie so much. Her giggling in the background was better than a live audience 😂

Definitely the best thing to come out of covid was Evie's entering the spotlight. She 'gots it', as they say!

[@fraggle9337]

I can only agree. When she came out the first night to announce the guests for the show all I could think is she *belongs* there. And of course she does!

[@rparl]

I'm glad she's there too.

[@paulapenna-loveyourvoice]

There should be a show called “Everybody Loves Evie”

[@woodneel]

Every time Evie and Stephen are on camera together it just makes me smile. They're so wholesome and wonderful. Thank you both for making this world a better place to exist. ❤❤❤

[@Gundam4]

Evies back already? I guess they realize the show is better with her

[@Tustin2121]

I hope it’s more “they realized this segment is better with her than a random audience member with no chemistry with Colbert” and we just get Evie back every time they want to do a first drafts segment.

[@ScienceFan1859]

Are you saying they invented father’s day to bring her back? This bit is calendar related…

[@vforwombat9915]

@@Tustin2121 "and we just get Evie back every time they want to do a first drafts segment" colbert was afraid working together would ruin things. then they worked together and it didn't. plus the crowd goes nuts for her. I expect they'll bring her back whenever they can.

[@ianlister7333]

[@uosdwiSrdewoH]

They'd be foolish not to. She should guest host every so often. That'd be amazing. Hopefully they at least bring her back for all these First Drafts in the future. An audience member is fine. Adequate even. Knowing each other so well they don't have to try and play it up. Stephen clearly desires nothing more than to make his wife happy so he always gives it a little extra when she's around.

[@SpaceForceCommander]

Boy, was Stephen very wrong about not working with Evie. The silver lining of the pandemic was the two of them working together!

[@michellebarry840]

Holy shit Mr. Ed you're still alive?

[@ibsulon]

The strain of working together isn’t on-camera… it’s merging work life and work stresses with personal life and personal stresses. Could you imagine having an argument over something important and then go in front of a camera and pretend like nothing’s wrong? I enjoy Evie as well but hope for their sakes it doesn’t become a strain.

[@ra5928]

@@ibsulon - They won't have any problems. I watch Colbert every night. Nobody laughs more at his jokes than his wife. Even the jokes that normally would have had no response from an audience. I'm sure he feels the same way about her.

He was very wise about that (as per usual), and I'm glad his fears weren't grounded :)

Did Stephen just end this segment by introducing his wife by her maiden name: "Evie McGee everybody!"? My God, what mad respect he has for her as an individual and a partner! When the two of them look each other in the eye, the love that is exchanged is palpable. We should ALL be so lucky to find a partner who looks at us the way they look at each other.
