1. "Let's take this outside"
"Bill O'Reilly is an Idiot!"

Love KO :)

2. This is great!
KO is destroying O'Reilly, and Colbert is parodying O'Reilly's persona so well it's fantastic!

3. Seemed a little strained at times
Kind of made me uncomfortable at a few points...

4. How so? I thought it when well...
BTW: The rest of this show was well worth watching too.

I'd give tonight an 8 out of 10 :evilgrin:

5. They seemed to cross signals at times
Keith seemed to have the same issue I have - sometimes Colbert is a little too hyper and a little to enthusiastic in his fake O'Liely rhetoric. I know you love Colbert so I assume you will completely disagree with me - C'est la vie :shrug:

6. Yeah, Colbert was a bit more "over the top" tonight, but I thought...
...he (KO) got the joke and he got to be a LOT more honest in what he said than if it had been a "real" interview, what ever that means these days.

7. I guess I mostly agree
I could see Keith trying very hard to adjust to Colbert's hyper behavior. He did get to speak his mind but I would prefer that Colbert turn off the character for the interviews as I often see that wrinkled brow as his guests try to figure out how to "mesh" with what he is doing. It's just a little nerve wracking to me.
