Melo on Colbert last night

[cuseguy]

Figured I’d start a new thread for this. Melo was a guest last night on Colbert as a prelude to his HOF induction. Good segment. Entertaining. Melo was upbeat and touched on a number of things. Colbert brought up Kiyan and showed a photo of him and Melo together when Kiyan was young and then another with Kiyan and Melo together when Kiyan committed. Colbert then challenged him to a shooting contest with paper balls into a waste basket. Colbert asked Melo to choose Orange or Blue balls. Melo naturally chose Orange. Colbert won the contest 6-1 and Melo laughed when Colbert taunted him by acting as if he had big balls, a taunt Melo tried once in the NBA and was told never to do again.

Beat me to posting this. Great to see Colbert showing a picture of Melo and Kiyan in their Syracuse uniforms!

Ouch. I think he is the best there is late night. Incomprehensible that he's being cancelled IMO.

It’s very easy to comprehend why he was cancelled for those that do math.

“Best there is late night” is there a greater tallest midget contest?

Glad to see Melo and Kiyan get the publicity anyway to be fair.

Lotta charmin soft people here.

No, More like 50,000,000 - 100,000,000 = (-50,000,000)

It’s not a political thing….at least not for me. It’s more like a he’s hasn’t been funny since the W administration thing.

And understand the extortion the current administration subjects on the “free market”

I don’t understand. Do you think that I believe that Colbert was doing a tribute to George W Bush?

I can't wait for this other 79 year old fat-ahh to get cancelled. Hopefully the poor blood flow and mcdonalds will do him in.

Oh wait this isn't allowed. Free-speech doesn't exist. Same reason Colbert was cancelled.

Yeah, I’m sure your fever swamp is real and the fact that he was losing $50 million / year is meaningless.

I’m going to take The Posts reporting with a grain of salt given their over reliance on anonymous sources.

No. I was asking if the years he was on Comedy Central doing his show playing a right wing caricature was the time you thought he was funny.

Sorry I must have misunderstood. But yes, I thought that was funny. In 2025 when he does the same warmed over schtick as every late night host and any number of people on Twitter, Substack, and Blue Sky, not so much.

I will say that was quite a rendition of “Made you Look.” Haven’t heard that in a a while.

Fair and thanks for clarifying.

I see clips occasionally but I don’t watch any late night TV.
