Out-Of-Character Stephen Colbert Is Disappointingly Mature And Adult-Ish

We all know that Stephen Colbert is playing a character on The Colbert Report, and those of you who didn’t know that…well, now you know. Hooray. In any case, you’d think that he’d at least resemble his on-air counterpart to a degree, but apparently that doesn’t seem to be the case since real Stephen is a bit of a buzzkill. The whole point of his out-of-character appearance is to take part in Rookie Mag’s “Ask a Grown Man” series and respond to questions about sexual harassment and dating, which aren’t inherently funny necessarily…but still. I’m not so sure I’ll be tuning in when he’s the host of his own late night show after watching this.
