As the article notes this is just an evolution of things they have already been doing - still a segment of highlight clips from recent monologues was a bit jarring.
I don't mind this so much but I wish it was more transparent. I don't need a distinct "Best of Colbert" title, but a quick card or crawl acknowledging the show is a rerun would be nice. I think there was a time when Dave would crawl the date a rerun had first aired(or was that Carson?) which I liked. Anyway, a "new" monologue (taped night before) with old bits and pieces laced with previously unseen, cut scenes is not a bad solution, but I would lose the clip segment unless Colbert is going to add snarky toppers or make fun of himself... http://variety.com/2017/tv/news/stephen-colbert-late-show-summer-friday-format-1202481317/amp/ -- Sent from Gmail Mobile -- -- TV or Not TV ....
