Funnier together?
Late-night hosts Stephen Colbert, Jimmy Fallon, and Conan O’Brien joined forces Tuesday to brainstorm a response to President Trump after he called Colbert a “lowlife” and Fallon a “lost soul” during a political rally in South Carolina.
The Avengers-esque collaboration was captured in a joint cold open that will kick off both The Late Show and The Tonight Show this evening (an apparent late-night first).
“Well, that’s not right,” Colbert replies. “That’s Conan.” He then dials up O’Brien, who apparently hasn’t heard that Trump is in the Oval Office. “The real-estate guy who sells steaks?” he asks incredulously. “He’s president?”
After fielding some long outdated advice from O’Brien, Colbert and Fallon wrap up and plan to have lunch at — where else? — the Red Hen.
