Colbert Report: Herpes and Beer Pong

Wow. I remember once in grade school, I had to do a little reenactment of some Aztec sacrifice in front of the class with some classmates. It was really stupid, we didn't know what we were doing, and I couldn't keep a straight face during a supposedly serious ritual. That's why I can always tell the really good actors on SNL by the ones who don't break character no matter how ridiculous their characters are (see Walken and Farrell vs Fallon and Sans in the famous More Cowbell sketch). That's one of the reasons that Steve Carell is so good as Michael in 'The Office,' even to the point that it becomes painful. 4 nights a week though, you see it in Steven Colbert's performance in the Colbert Report. No better example than last night.
