Agreed. I feel people often forget that Stephen Colbert is a character, not the actual person.

- maxerickson 13y agoHow does that factor in here? I would say the comic showed up in Washington, not the character. (I would also say that the character is slowing vanishing, because it doesn't work as well when everybody is in on it. A lot of times it holds back his interviews, playing the idiot foil limits the questions he can ask.)
- justin66 13y agoI'm not a habitual watcher of his show but it seems to me like he's pretty good about knowing when to turn it off, or just turn it down a bit. One interview on his show where I remember him being very close to completely straight was with an astronaut who had walked on the moon, which I feel indicates that his priorities are about right.
