No Right Answer: Best Post-Daily Show Career Ever

[Mr_Terrific]

Burt Wonderstone pretty much killed off Correll's career while Colbert is killing it with the Colbert report. He even has his own ice cream :I

Colbert is a BOSS! He's totally rockin it on the Colbert Report! How about that USO special he hosted for U.S. troops in Iraq, from one of Saddam's former places? Even the poliicians he joked on got some good jabs at him there (including Bush, McCain, and Obama). And don't forget the Rally to Restore Sanity and/or Fear.
And why the hate for Olivia Munn? I mean, I lost some respect for her once I heard she supposrts PETA, but she's still hot.

I don't buy that when the Bush Administration had Steven Colbert speak at the Correspondents Dinner that they didn't get his schtick. While he was a flawed president with some very wrong-headed policies, he was smart enough to know when he was being made fun of.

Also, Steve Carrell all the way. He is the Leslie Nielsen of our generation.

Every single video of this Olivia Munn character has been denied in my country (UK), so I guess it's safe to say I don't like her since she doesn't like me (my country) >_>

While I enjoy Colbert more, I'd have to agree that Carrell has had the more successful career, in a matter of scope, not necessarily quality. Meaning that he's covered more ground on television and film and reached a wider audience.

Though oddly, I have to mention that my spellcheck underlined "Carrell" but left "Colbert" alone...

Anyway, out with the old, in with the new: everything's comin' up John Oliver!

WHAT IS THIS? THE KITTY IS NOT MOVING!!!!!

I'd say Carrell, just because I know who he is. I barely know who Colbert is and it's because of a few people talking about him on the internet.

I guess Carrell has the more successful career, but I find Colbert more enjoyable.

And on top of his mother passing away, Colbert loses at this.

Never heard of colbert, but may be cus I'm british?
So yeah evan almighty wims this one by default for me I guess

Much like John Stewart, Colbert has a news show. Though his is more directly dedicated to making light of stupidity and horrible things through absurdity and satire while Stewart is more serious and just kinda directly makes fun of stuff.
They're a fantastic team of shows.

Did you WATCH it?
They understood his schtick, but not until it was too late and he was already there doing it. Either that or they though he'd be intimidated into turning it down. He wasn't.

Just look her up on YouTube. She's bound to come up.

Ed Helms?

He seems to be doing well for himself. Not as well as Steve Carell is doing right now (no one is, that's why he won) but Ed Helms is doing at least as well as Colbert is.

 

[Urameshi13]

Of course I watched it, I thought it was hilarious.

 

[Zetatrain]

Fuck it, I choose both of them.

IMO, both of them did different kinds of comedy/humor and both did them very well.
