Colbert Is Turning Off...
JMO... colbert isn't very funnie.

personally, i love the line-up of guests he's had on the tonight show, but his humor is mediocre
at best. commercial media is about accumulation of eyeballs for sponsors. i don't like that... but
if you're in the biz... that's your job. he's in the biz... but he's failing.

if he realizes that he's not a comedian and he just does serious interviews with his guest line-up
he could have a good PBS program (just because of the guests)... but he's no charlie rose either...
so why bother?

i wouldn't be surprised to see him as a viewer instead of host within a year or two. nothing wrong
with that... but he doesn't seem like someone who would watch the tonight show.
...and neither am i unless someone like john stewart is hosting it.
