In fairness, the cold opening with Clinton was at the Carnegie deli, and not 
the far superior Katz's.

I'd comment on the appropriateness of that choice, but might as well stay 
politics-free.

I think it's less about appropriateness and more about geography. The
Carnegie is a three-minute walk from the Ed, while Katz's is a ways away on
the Lower East Side. Also, Katz's is noisier (did they use the quieter back
room at the Carnegie?).

Oh, wait a second…I get it now.  “There wasn’t a cold open once this week,” and 
that once was Thursday night.

 

Odd phrasing, but ignore me…I’m caught up.  :)

  Are we using a different definition of “cold open”?  There was a cold 
open *every* night this week, except Thursday.

 

Monday – Hillary Clinton in Katz’s Deli

Tuesday – Abe Lincoln and Robert E. Lee sucking face behind Colbert’s 
commentary about North Carolina’s HB2.

Wednesday – Cartoon Donald Trump celebrating in his dressing room.

Thursday – none

Friday – Backstage “Game of Thrones” parody with Stephen and Nikolaj 
Coster-Waldau.

 

Other than that first part of your point, I agree…I love all the cold openings.

There wasn't a cold open once this week, which is too bad, since I think not 
starting immediately with the theme song is a nice change from the other show.

 

There's also a new arrangement of the opening credit music.  The break is 
shorter between the end of the guest announcements and "And now its time for 
The Late Show with Stephen Colbert" and Stay Human now repeats the last bit of 
the theme as Stephen walks out.

True, although Colbert's taped cold opens are usually longer, and post-titles, 
Colbert is usually at the desk.  On last night's show, Colbert entered from 
behind the screen after the "zoom into the Ed", he performed a standard 
monologue (less the 'one more thing' joke that usually punches out to the 
titles), then had Stay Human play him over to the desk.  But I agree - let's
