Best of The Colbert Report
"He's a journalist with gravitas, with dignity, with balls." One of the brightest spots on the TV dial, Comedy Central's ultimate fake news show comes to DVD with The Best of The Colbert Report, a seriously hilarious sampling of the most memorable episodes to date. Know someone you've wanted to turn on to the show? Heard about it but you don't have Comedy Central? This is the DVD for you, a fantastic primer for this rousing satire of the cable news bobble heads. From the product description: In this age of skepticism and not getting it, Americans want the truth…iness. And no one has more truthiness than it-getter, flagophile, and four-star American hero, Stephen Colbert. Now, with this collection of The Colbert Report’s finest moments, you can watch as Stephen shows the nation how he better feels the facts, better justifies injustices, and better knows the districts. So, look up in the sky, above the fruited plain, across the purple mountain majesties. This…is The Colbert Report. Long time viewers will recognize many shows in the line-up - the introduction to "Truthiness," Papa bear Bill O'Reilly's sit down with Steven, Better Know a District, Green Screen Challenge, Stephen Jr.-Flight of a Patriot, Meta-Free-Phor-All - comedy classics every one. The Colbert Report is a roaringly funny program that keeps getting better each week it seems, therefore these episodes feel a bit quaint but they stand forever as a sterling representation of one of the smartest spoofs in TV history and something you'll undoubtedly want in your permanent library. Entertain (or infuriate) the relatives with it over the holidays! This DVD collection retails for $19.99 but is available online now for only $14.99. TV on DVD Reviews:  |

FEATURES YOU MIGHT ENJOY: Plot Synopsis:
An, offshoot of The Daily Show, The Colbert Report (the Ts in Colbert
and in Report are silent) is a parody of shows like "The O'Reilly
Factor." Colbert begins the show with teasers about the show's
content and then the credits go by, with a giant eagle and the stars
and stripes featured predominantly. Colbert will pepper commentaries
with phrases like, "Look, I don't have time to read books,"
or, "President Bush isn't a head thinker, he's a gut thinker."
Aspects of talking head programs are exaggerated and Colbert presents
a host overwhelmed by his own importance. Guests do not walk on-stage but are seated at a small
table to the side. Colbert runs over to them, encouraging the audience
to applaud and high five him as he passes. He is then likely to begin
an interview by asking a guest something like, "Explain evolution
in 20 seconds," or "Isn't everyone who disagrees with the
president guilty of treason?" Colbert is also very clear about
our number one threat, "Bears." His distrust of bears is
a continuing theme. Studio: Paramount Home Video
