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!"

That was a funny sketch. I can't believe they got Tim Allen.

[@romanfox5368]

Tom Hanks is amazing in this. He's stills got it.

[@bthy384]

borot man Vicious man....

[@ro4eva]

Tom Hanks is truly one of the best actors to grace my many CRT, LCD and Plasma screens. And I look forward sooner or later to being able to watch him in tremendous VR, believe me, it'll make my head spin.

[@dakotaweins3178]

borot man I laughed so hard I had diarrhea

[@shack8110]

never thought i'd see Stephen Colbert do something original, creative and enjoyable. Usually he's just sad and filled with hate.

[@AstroPsych_]

Tim Allen woke up the next day wondering why he was suddenly 30 again.

I'll never get tired of Tom Hanks and his movies. He always has a good sense of humor and his serious roles are great to watch. That Thing You Do was one of my favorite movies. People just don't know about it!

Aww, you think there will be people in 200 years? That's adorable.

Here's something I just realized. Tom Hanks had a volleyball in the movie Castaway named Wilson and Tim Allen had a character named Wilson, who was the neighbor, in his sitcom Home Improvement. I loved this skit. It made me smile. 😊

"Wilson ... WILSON!" Imagine if the soccer ball has spoken "Hey there nieghbor!"

[@mentriktjen5946]

This is funnier than his skits at SNL. Snappy writing and the Tom Hanks we know is back!

[@Billo1281]

Looks like Tim Allen recovered quite well from being stranded on that island for so long.

[@MrMojoSuper]

LOL!!!

[@Kadmosthegreat]

It was so nice to see him work with his old neighbor Wilson again.

[@lect0n7]

& The Volleyball who played his neighbor on Home Improvment!!

[@MrParkerman6]

Eh, they showed Wilson's face too much this time. Totally ruined the schtickt!

[@IDNeon357]

They should have done a follow up skit where Tim Allen wakes up as a 30 year old.

[@MauricioArroyave1328]

lol Next morning he would wake up exactly the same age, but Tim Allen would wake up 30 years old XD

[@gusstavv]

yup you got it hahaha

[@Ironprism]

This is outright gold.

[@jlinblazin]

That was HILARIOUS!! I cant believe they got Zoltar and Tim Allen back together.

[@jarvistrenorden2282]

Tom hanks should totally make a movie called Small where he turns into a child

[@FeralWorker]

This made me laugh a lot for some reason.

[@whammo12]

Actually a great idea! I'd watch it!

[@MaestroGrey]

and the twist will be nothing goes wrong. I really was better to be 30.

[@CreativeSteve69]

love the idea and it can be a sequel or prequel of big. lol

[@Rook26]

would be cool yet the main character would not be him, it would be someone younger o_o

[@schloergrape5191]

2:19 a bit of Forrest Gump there when he says 'everyday'!!

Please, God. Don't let there be any sexual harassment stories about Tom Hanks out there. Let us have this one.

Too late. No sexual harassment, just pedophilia...

@dave lambert first of all it's ABBOTT not ABOTT secondly who says i didn't get it , Abbott and Costello are fucking legendary. keep in mind though that back in the day , being a kid from Australia this was confusing because baseball is not our national sport, but.. i got it eventually hehe

Loved the sketch, but what's with all of the "Big" references lately? Hanks was just on another video doing the rap from the movie, now this.. It's not for another 2 years before the movie turns 30.. Anyone know?

[@LucasCAPS]

The hype must be about Tom's age, not the movie's. And the main element of the movie is Tom's age.

Great skit. Colbert was terrific on this. Costume and makeup were excellent...I miss the big FAO Schwartz toy store in NYC where Hanks danced on a giant keyboard. It was a holiday tradition to explore the store, see cool stuff, and be entertained by the astronomical prices. They kept the keyboard from Big out on the ground floor. The store closed supposedly because of gross mismanagement by the deceased owner's family. Sigh.

If you haven't seen _Cloud Atlas_ you're missing some of Tom Hank's greatest performances. He portrays 3 or 4 different characters during the course of the movie, and his acting chops were never sharper. Also a great movie, very long, but highly entertaining,

[@klockwerk187]

I still visit this sketch once in a while, used to (still do) love BIG...something over the years has kept "Zoltar" in the back of my mind. Beyond a piece of entertainment hardware...there's something more mystical to those machines...there's a feeling...and I think they not only look damn cool but definitely would have one in a game room of my house if life ever allotted the opportunity.
