Personally, I think Jon Stewart would be a better choice.

I'm concerned that Colbert won't be as funny on the Late Show as he is on the Report. I'd have the same issue as Stewart moving to that spot (and personally I prefer Stewart to Colbert).
But for CBS I think this is a great move. If anyone could exceed expectations, it is Colbert. I am not sure anyone is quite ready to fill the Colbert shoes, maybe Samantha Bee?

He won't be faux-conservative anymore, but I bet the sarcastic wit will still be there. It wouldn't surprise me if he goes back into character occasionally.

I've never cared for these late shows.

I'm disappointed. I wanted Jon Stewart to be the replacement.

How about the duo that hosted the award show - Fey and P____(I can't recall her name) or Ellen D. who has hosted shows before. If only Billy Crystal was a bit younger. How about Seinfeld?
