Watching the diatribe a second time, and including Colbert's remarks from
last night (which I've seen apparently misinterpreted by one major media
outlet), I'm swayed by the argument that the screwing by Viacom really did
happen, and the video was in the works ahead of time (and repurposed).

Interesting note: Daft Punk’s planned appearance had already been
The short version: Daft Punk was known for their house and electronica
music (I have a couple of their CD and they make regular appearances on my
playlists). They wrote and recorded the score for the Tron remake in 2010.
For Random Access Memory, they decided to make a shift and pull off a
pretty
They've been around for ages, but for a number of years now, they've only
appeared in costume with the helmets. And they've not done broadcast
interviews. They've given written interviews - but that's all from what I
can tell.
Their new album is excellent though, and Get Lucky isn't even the best
Except.
While I enjoy a Colbert evisceration as much as anyone, I began to have my
doubts as the subsequent musical video montage unfolded, one which was

The show started promoting Colbchella '013 on the air last week, so I think it
reasonable that there's been some work on at least some part of last night's
performance well in advance. Heck, last year Colbert did Colbchella '012 from
the Intrepid, which involved melding in-studio and onboard

I was wondering the same thing, but given the amount of setup required for
that montage - past guests, visits to Charlie Rose/Fallon/AGT, the
Rockettes in their rehearsal studio, Jon Stewart via Skype, HENRY
KISSINGER! - I had assumed it was always the setup for Daft Punk's 'live'
performance.
No, the real question is When did original Stig clone himself and start an

That was why I separated the two. I agree with the thinking the second
segment was set up well in advance. Colbert tends to use very deliberate
language (similar to Dave Berry using the phrase I am not making this up)
when he's telling the truth. If you remember the Wheat Thins bit, when he
