Good news everybody, Stephen Colbert still exists!
The new host of The Late Show hasn’t truly went away since Comedy Central’s Colbert Report ended back in December— he was on The Mindy Project!—but he’s back doing what he does best: making videos about his beard…aka the “Colbeard.”
But before he begins hosting The Late Show, Colbert had to ditch the Colbeard. We know, we’re crying too. It was so gloriously salt and pepper-y! Just watching him shave it off in stages makes it all worthwhile, though!
