'Colbert Report' to Resume Taping on Monday

Image and video hosting by TinyPic


Stephen Colbert will resume production of his late-night show “The Colbert Report” on Monday, a spokesman for Comedy Central said Sunday.

Production was abruptly halted last Wednesday without explanation, prompting concern among the comedian’s fans. Repeats of “The Colbert Report” were shown Wednesday and Thursday.

People close to Mr. Colbert said that he was caring for his 91-year-old mother, Lorna; although that was not confirmed, he did respond to fans’ well wishes on Twitter on Friday night. “My family and I would like to thank everyone who has offered their thoughts and prayers,” Mr. Colbert wrote. “We are grateful and touched by your concern.”

The part of “The Colbert Report” Web site that announces guests indicated on Sunday that new episodes would be shown all week; Mr. Colbert’s guest on Monday is scheduled to be Ann Patchett, the novelist and owner of an independent bookstore.

So this is good news, I guess. I hope he and his family are doing ok, though :(

I went to the Rally to Restore Sanity and / or Fear a couple years back, and apparently we were very close to him at one point. I didn't even notice, and never would have known if not for my roommate spazzing out about it later.

Yes! I met him when I went to the show too and he was SO SO SO nice. When they played Holland 1945 he came down and danced with me, it was amazing.

God I love this man. Only he (and Jon Stewart) would shut shit down for their mother.

Yay! Hopefully everything is better with his family now.

i wanna get tix for me and my bf but they never seem to be available!
jinxeh13 19th-Feb-2012 08:12 pm (UTC)
Did you sign up on the site, to be notified when tickets are available? Pretty much the only way to get them.
miss_jofranz 19th-Feb-2012 08:32 pm (UTC)
Yeah, my dad had wanted to get me tickets as an 18th birthday gift back in '08. My birthday's in May, but we did get an email about a cancellation for the end of August a few months later. They'll let you know and then you have to email back within a certain time frame. The whole thing is kind of a pain, but at least the tickets are free!

I hope that means his mom is recovering.
dancedallnight 19th-Feb-2012 07:57 pm (UTC)
awww best wishes to him and his family.
bob_always_wins 19th-Feb-2012 08:03 pm (UTC)
I hope everything is well with his family!

Also, this has made me want to give Americone Dream a second chance. I tried it 3 years ago and I don't remember enjoying it all that much. :(

It's fairly simple for a Ben and Jerry's flavor, but it's good. Maybe it's because I love Ben and Jerry's in general.

I definitely think it's better than Late Night Snack, which had the most AMAZING ingredients and therefore should've been my favorite ever but tasted completely underwhelming instead. But Late Night Snack was better than Red Velvet Cake. There's an order to these things.

despite strong opinions, I do not eat Ben & Jerry's everyday, for the record
bob_always_wins 19th-Feb-2012 09:03 pm (UTC)
Oddly enough, I definitely enjoyed Late Night Snack more, and Red Velvet is next on my list to try!
hollymarchosias 19th-Feb-2012 09:06 pm (UTC)
I can't really eat any Ben & Jerry's flavors because I'm lactose intolerant. Maybe I'll suck it up, get some lactose intolerance pills (if they still make them) and try that and Late Night Snack.

I'm glad he'll be back and I hope he's okay (and his family too, obviously).
