Stephen Colbert Act Falls Hard on This Week with George Stephanopolous (VIDEO)

Stephen Colbert This Week

When I heard that Comedy Central’s Stephen Colbert was going to make an appearance on This Week with George Stephanopoulos, I wasn’t quite sure what to expect. But I’m not going to lie; I was more than a little intrigued. Colbert’s insanely funny, extremely intelligent, and just about as quick-witted as anyone out there. I don’t always agree with everything he puts out there, but even much of that still makes me laugh. Add to that the fact that we’re in the middle of a Republican primary that at times has been more ridiculous than informative and the fact that George Stephanopoulos has just rejoined/taken over the hosting duties at a struggling This Week; and you have all the makings of potentially great television and hilarious political comedy.

While my mind drifted off to other things whilst watching said beatdown, I pulled up Google Trends to see how much of the top 20 was dominated by Tebow, Brady, Denver Broncos, NFL, playoffs, etc. And just as I expected, the list was overrun with Tebow-Mania and topics related to the NFL and the last-minute finish between the 49ers and the Saints… save for one.
