Stephen Kicks Off 'Russia Week' From Red Square

Stephen visited Red Square in Moscow, mere steps from where many Americans once considered 'the epicenter of all evil,' to find out if it's as horrifying as advertised.

OK that was the most clever outro I've ever seen

[AnatolySherstnev]

Man, the architecture in Europe always blows me away, makes me wish I lived in a country that is a bit older than 150 years. Granted, that building, (which I guess to be the Kremlin, though I don't particularly care to google it to find a picture to confirm :P) could be less than that age, not sure if it was a Czarist era construction, though I assume it was.

[meh]

should be investigated for being in Russia.

Historical, Epic, Legendary!!! Stephen "Bogatyr" Colbert. We love when USA and Russia coludes!!!

[spoons]

Which country has used nuclear weapons against another country? 🤔

[matthewbiscan]

Russia week? you haven't stopped talking about Russia for months..

[geraldsupan]

I thought Stephen Colbert was pregnant when he walked on camera

[timby]

Isn't every week Russia week on this show?

[FloofyMinari]

I never understood the hacking allegations. I mean, you would think hackers, especially from such a powerful nation, would have the common sense to cover their tracks. I'm no hacker so what do I know.

[MyagkihD]

Soglad you visit Russia! Please come back - it was such fun!

[hallow]

This reminded me of the show "The Americans"

[defectus]

Help. I can't stop watching the outro.

[tuckerbowen]

the buildings there certainly are pretty

[AndrewJasonQuan]

Where is Johnny Cowboy when you need him? Disney World-Coca Cola, am I right?

[joshrose]

Reserve morning touch performance virtually pump intense pile communication.

[FireSonata]

I just can't deal with those wrong Cyrillic letter, Like the A is actually a D so I read it a Russia weed ;)

[quiry]

Why do Russian buildings look like they were made out of gingerbread and candy?

[MarcKloos]

Not entirely true: there are a few Старбакс кофе shops around, but not directly on the Red Square.

I like that he filmed himself with the State Historical Museum in the background instead of St. Basil's Cathedral, which is behind the camera operator. So tired of that building being the only one many Americans picture when they think of Russia. Plus, I can point to one of the places where Moscow's upstanding police officers extorted and robbed me.
