I LOVE THAT STEPHEN IS BRINGING BACK THEATRE TO TALK SHOWS!!!

[@TransparentLabyrinth]

+Arnie Rodriguez YES :D

[@singabob1]

Actually, Rosie O'Donnell did it years before.

[@aquaeyes33]

I love how 'impromptu' this skit is!

[@TimMFWolfe]

+aquaeyes33 As the Gregory Brother would say, "recorded libe!"

[@IanTheEarlobe]

In my head he's 18 forever

[@Francoberry]

+IanTheEarlobe In Ferris Buellers Day off, he was 23. And get this, Alan Ruck (Cameron Frye) was 30

[@taiinted5371]

+Francoberry but in the movie he played an 18 year old

[@kiddpenn]

Aww not only was that great to see, but it was so sweet how he cared to thank the kids at the end. The whole thing was refreshing, he's a wonderful show host.

[@monierose3891]

That was so sweet, I adore Matthew.

[@AcidFlorist]

What an absolutely adorable video to wake up to, completely hungover. Really made my morning

[@beetlejuiceblues12]

The cutest part of this was actually Stephen hugging the kids like that was so frickin adorable

[@alany3805]

This is why they are stars and we are not. Even in an impromptu improv lovely 10-yr old little boys and girls who dance like 20-year old come out and shower them with rose petals. When I do it on the way to work people stare at me and that one dude calls me queer and throws an empty beer can in my face.

[@casg9172]

Just hang there man

[@swr1240]

+Alan Y That happens to everyone, they just edit that part out. Same will happen to those kids on their way home. It's just part of the biz. Keep doing what you're doing.

[@alany3805]

Alan Jeffrey Thank you for that, I was feeling down while shopping in the mall, and then I saw your comment on my mobile. It really lifted my spirits up, felt like you were right there with me, you know, Alan and Alan, buddy and buddy. So of course I started a mono duet of "stand by me", it went like this: When the night has come And the land is dark And the moon is the only light we'll see No I won't be afraid, no I won't be afraid Just as long as you stand, stand by me Oh darlin', darlin', stand by me, oh stand by me Ahggggg! don't chug beer cans at me! They are not even empty! What do you mean I am queer? It's a spontaneous expression of emotions.....

[@casg9172]

Hahaha am in love with every reply

[@BobPagani]

Only in New York!

[@shaywalters7807]

Matthew has such a good voice

[@TheHebrewHand]

Simba hasn't lost that roar

[@sammiwhite9575]

This was adorable. Stephen is adorable

[@NS1973]

Man, it's so lucky that the stage producer was able to go out onto the street and see a few kids with baskets of rose petals right outside the stage/alley door. I mean, how much more perfectly impromptu does it get, right? Stephen Colbert: master of serendipity.

[@daniellejohnson8778]

I love it when Broderick sings, sing your

[@karenshaub8273]

I love the totally improvised choreography and back up girls in costume.

[@maureenmclean5203]

That was fun to watch. The children were great.

[@maddie9602]

Wow, I didn't know that Colbert could sing. He's definitely not bad.

[@olav889]

That poor girl was the only one not to get a hug lol.

[@daniellejohnson5023]

Thank you for whoever posted this, i love love love Matt's singing.

[@sh444.n]

their voices are amazing

[@flintmakesmusic6039]

That's the magic of theatre, where guys just start singing and little guys and girls throw flower petals. And because it's magic it's impromptu, don't you know? ;)

[@brendar9363]

For some reason I've never been able to warm up to Broderick. But this was worth watching just to see Colbert thank and hug the children at the end of the skit.

[@AndreCrema97]

He still moves EXACTLY like Harold Hill. So cool

[@shannoncook4152]

That just made my day. (or night if you want to be precise)...It was, heart warming you might say.

[@damage6836]

I keep hearing matt "I'm singing in the rain...."

[@davidpd77]

Great Matthew!

[@dorkie99]

This made my morning.

[@Masterpieceman16]

Ahh, My Fair Lady... What a good show! I was in it back in high school.

[@isaiahwilliams2642]

If Broderick can sing, why did they need a different singing voice for Simba?

[@brianaranki340]

Because Broderick is more of a Lyric Baritone than a tenor

[@bobbiking2123]

Because he can’t really sing. Neither can Stephen Colbert. This is play singing. You know in their world they don’t have to actually know how to sing! Those folks on the Lion King can actually sang not sing sang baby!

[@whij2471]

​@@bobbiking2123he literally can sing?

[@shootybaking]

Their voices are so different, but work so well together.

[@nonnyj81]

Yep it's called Harmony

[@ulfar321]

stephen and matthew are my new ship

[@TheMymlan]

LOOOOOOOOVEE!!! 💞💞💞💞😍😍😍 Oh my gosh. And the kids! ❤

[@shootybaking]

He can sing!

[@violal1460]

They look like they're about to kiss lol 😂

[@coffeefrog]

ADORABLE!

[@Neyonius]

Looking back from 2021 seeing this kind of close interaction on The Late Show is a bit surreal.

[@janmcdonald3896]

This is magical

[@sleepymofo]

Great to see people (aside from the music performers) who can actually sing on late night talk shows and not those who are just lip syncing.

[@bentalemunyon]

In my mind, he'll always be Inspector Gadget, Simba, and Harold Hill to me. ❤️

[@PeeblesAlicorn]

True. I'll also see him as Leo Bloom.

[@dannyhipolito817]

Ferris Bueller enters the chat

[@harveylopezt]

That's some real entertainment. Really fun to watch.

[@angelicafarrugia6273]

I need to sing with Stephen oml 😍😍😍😍 *puts on top of bucket list* 😜😜

[@mooniejohnson]

If you don't smile at this, I'm fairly sure you're not human.

[@jackmachax]

Keep doing this stephen, your show reminds me of the gold ole days :)

[@rogerwoods4587]

i just Love it!

[@FieryAshes]

Stephen Colbert pulls me out of the cold grips of bad mental space all the time.

[@MEMAMIMAMA]

James Corden and Stephen Colbert duet album please?

[@sanedem]

Grinning ear to ear! xD

[@andreaguzman9329]

Iconic ❤️

[@vileguile4]

Wow o.O ... great voices :)

[@YukimuraSanadaEmpires]

Broderick could easily replace Jim Parsons in the BBT :) He sounds just like him

[@juliemullen4507]

So funny lovely !!!

[@arnoldstollar5375]

Talent

[@craigmoree]

Bueller is now the face for Tweed/smoking jackets from Burlington Coat Factory...he' just missing a pipe

[@startheknight]

[@PeculiarPrincess7]

[@Rumbple]

Matthew Broderick looks exactly like my old Global History teacher

[@vsh1998]

Are they being sarcastic on the "impromptu" part?

[@Rikitikisiki]

+Merc With A Mouth Hmm...under a debate.

[@YarrBr0]

Yes

[@Aubry92]

+Merc With A Mouth I mean, nothing says "off the cuff" like kids throwing flower petals around your totally-spontaneous musical number

[@SineOccasu]

ahhh *Sir Jamesman!* beat me haha

[@popc5245]

ironic

[@tfcooks]

Very loverly.

[@wideawake5630]

Ok. Got my grin on, I can go about my day

[@williamwells434]

As a Charlestonian, Stephen Colbert is a national treasure

[@jayashreechakravarthy4949]

Matthew Broderick gets some access. He’s hired.

[@liammccabe05]

Completely impromptu. No foreplanning whatsoever xD

[@fannishfanning160]

Liam McCabe no shit sherlock

[@ModestMousekateer]

MATTHEW BROH-TICK EVERYONE!! wut?

[@jordansean18]

+Modest Mouseketeer uhh... yeah, I heard that too... bra-tick?

[@z-beeblebrox]

+Modest Mouseketeer It was more a "brah-drick", sorta tripping over the second syllable and the 'd' getting lost in the clapping

[@Battlefieldd3]

he had a rose petal in his mouth

[@tylerhartsell7269]

I had no idea Chasten Buttigieg can sing that well!!!!

[@shelleywarkentin9656]

The harms are great

[@suzawilo]

[@rjaymolina]

Perfect xD

[@splashpont]

It seems a little Miscast or Broadway Backwards.

[@GrandiaKnight]

+splashpont Sounds good to me.

[@thepleblian2079]

+splashpont Me to good sounds...

[@Rishikesh_Mohite]

Loved the video but what part of this was impromptu?

[@DioOmicida]

Stephen. Stephen. Stephen.

[@jordandoucet2745]

I could be the walrus and I'd still need rides

[@IIIIKaiserIIII]

Yeah completely impromptu. This wasn't rehearsed at all.

[@ofirstroh]

[@OrionFyre]

Ferris grew up :(

[@sharontate5882]

No shit Sherlock

[@uatu3021]

A. You can never go to far. B: If I am gonna get busted, it is not gonna be by a guy like that!

[@Guernicaman]

Now when you say the word "impromptu", I don't think you're being quite honest, Steve. Maybe it's just me.

[@katclores5884]

Simba voice

[@1504vijay]

What song is this? someone please

[@CrowYaeger]

Holy crap Ferris Bueller looks old now. I know he's in his late 50s but damn.

[@whatsuphotdog]

Matthew Broadtick

[@ardeladimwit]

[@6squall9]

[@georgemitchellmusic]

Completely Impromptu?

[@Matdogg2k]

They look a little related

[@RobertBenedikts]

Did you know: Matthew Brodderick On August 5, 1987, actor Matthew Broderick was driving on a country road in Enniskillen, Northern Ireland with then-girlfriend (and Ferris Bueller’s Day Off co-star) Jennifer Grey when his car veered into the wrong lane, colliding with an oncoming vehicle. The two passengers of the other car - 30-year-old Anna Gallagher and her 63-year-old mother Margaret Doherty - were killed instantly. Broderick spent a month in the hospital but because of memory loss, he was unable to explain what happened. It was determined that the actor wasn’t drunk at the time of the accident, and he was charged with causing death by dangerous driving, although he was eventually convicted only of careless driving, escaping with a $175 fine. Initially upset at the ruling, the victims’ family has since come to terms with it and met with Brodderick in 2003 to gain a sense of closure.

[@MrJBleedge]

That's a lot of fish.

[@peterortiz1160]

Ferris Bueller... Is old. 😳

[@OBeast62392]
