And I'm just very glad to see him back - it's been a long two weeks without his wit and wisdom, especially considering recent Trump insanity!

But I'm glad he got to chill for two weeks and recharge his energy. He sure did bring some energy tonight.

I thought Jane's story was hilarious about her prior interview with Colbert on the old Colbert Report. She had something she wanted to say (promoting a movie) so she decided to sit on his lap and kiss him. He was so flustered throughout the interview, she got to say what she wanted to say.

Wow I found the Colbert Report interview video. It's even funnier than I expected. (Warning: clip starts with a brief ad)

I didn't always watch The Colbert Report, but I remember watching when he had Keith Olbermann on and he didn't let him get a word in. Guess Jane Fonda turned the tables on him!
