"Unforseen Circumstances".

Death threats, or did they just lose the key to the studio?

I was wondering what happened.

I'm pretty sure it's something like a birth or a death- he's pretty hardcore like that.

Well you came back so there's hope for him.

 

[Dixon Carter Lee]

Looks like his mother is ill.

He's a good boy.

I'll start the prayer chain, don't be the weak link.

I don't pray.

Can I send a nice email?

 

[phrodeau]

Is he going to Whitney's funeral?

 

[QueenLevitra]

I don't pray.

I'd have a hand-written calling card delivered by my man-servant, the bishop, but that's just how I roll.

At first we thought it might be bears but...

This is what I truly suspected and HufPo has the balls to post a video of Lorna as well. My hope is that Stephen takes a fair amount of time off.

Imagine that you had to raise 11 kids. Imagine that the youngest of those kids was Stephen Colbert.

Yeah- I've been busy. I've not been gone that long, have I?

There is a ten year age difference between him and his next sibling due to the tragic loss of his two brothers closer in age as well as his father in a horrible plane crash. Some feel that this helped make him what he is in many ways. He's also deaf in one ear from a childhood tumor. I'm glad he's found success after lesser roles in things like being The Midas Muffler Man in commercials.

Yeah- I was trying to make a joke by quoting the end-cap of the show he did on his mother's birthday.

"Imagine raising 11 kids. Now imagine the last one- was me. Happy Birthday mama Colbert."

I absolutely adore this man. Were those his real kids in the Colbert Christmas Special? I was pretty sure they were, but you seem like you have infinite Colbert knowledge. I must eat you raw so as to absorb your knowledge.

I hope they get back to work soon, a friend of mine works for the show.

Really?

Is it possible that I could, say, knock him out, steal his clothes, and sneak in?

Mr. Colbert probably has Secret Service protection by now.

These are his children and there's plenty about him that I don't know. He's kind of a brainy prick really but always very nice when it comes to public manners.

This is me on St Pat's Day 2010. The warm up comic/one of his writers/the Sonic guy and I had a bit of fun bantering in the audience before the show.

Yeah- those were the kids who were street urchins in the Christmas Special- they sing, "Please help the Colbert children eat!"

How can you call the Midas Muffler Man a "lesser role"?

Get your priorities straight, woman!

Wait. Is Colbert.............Rob?!?!??

 

[piccicatopolka]

Here's an article from the New York Post. His mom was admitted to the hospital earlier this week, but was sent home. www.nypost.com/p/entertainment/tv/colbert_report

And sorry for the brain to finger fart ~ I meant he's in Mr. Goodwrench commercials.

Is Rob the name of Peter Groz's character in the Sonic commercials? Pete was the warm up comic before the TCR taping that I went to, he's also a writer on the show.

NEW YORK (AP) – A representative for Stephen Colbert says The Colbert Report will return Monday after a sudden break due to the ailing health of the star's mother.

The Comedy Central show last week substituted repeats for scheduled shows on Wednesday and Thursday. At the time, the network said only that the cancellations were because of "unforeseen circumstances."

Colbert is expected to address his absence on Monday. His 91-year-old mother, Lorna Colbert, is ill.
