This mad lad found a way to keep the "Jon Stewart is under my desk!" bit in quarantine. Well done.

I wouldn't mind seeing John Stewart on a more regular basis. It may help me get through this mess, we're in, a little bit smoother.

The friendship between these two is heartwarming.

[mako]

I miss John Stewart's comedy, intelligence, insight, and wisdom.

The consistency that even during quarantine Jon is still living under Stephen‘s desk is giving me great comfort 😂
These two are hilarious together, what an amazing friendship!

I am a you-tuber from China, Jon Stewart is my favorite talk show host! He inspired me to pursue freedom and equality, this episode is so amazing!

It cannot be overstated how much I miss Jon Stewart
That man is a national treasure

"Put your dirty hands into my open wound because I'm an American." Best laugh of my day, thank you Jon Stewart.

I love the nurse that said “if you don’t like wearing a mask, you’re going to hate being on a ventilator”!!!!

Two VERY handsome, funny, honest men who love their families. Don’t find many men like that sadly.

The daily show single handedly got me into politics when i was younger and i love when john flashes a cameo. Thanks for all you do for this country, those who you have taught will never forget. ✊🏼

The very first real laugh I had after my husband died was a couple years ago when Jon Stewart popped up from under Stephen’s desk to promote Night of a Thousand Stars. It’s not just that they’re both very funny men, but their genuine caring for each other and the world that makes them such a joy to watch. Thank you for bringing some joy into such a dark time in my life then. And now, a couple years later, watching the two of you together, even as you discuss how awful the world is right now, gives me hope.

These two are helping me cope with these insane times.

Can every 'The Late Show' please just be Stephen Colbert and Jon Stewart talking for an hour?

[patricialoftin]

Actually, Stephen is looking "really fine" with his longer hair. Especially the curls along the back. South Carolina is proud of you, Colbert!

[judymccown]

Falling in love since he has been home. Love how he is with his wife. He looks like my late husband at that age; he had a great sense of humor, also. Thanks for the reminder, Stephen.

[carolineschneider]

Jon lives in Stephen’s desk, doesn’t matter the location of the desk 😂

[ianskyvox]

I absolutely love how they just seem to be genuine friends. Warms the cold dead meat that used to be my heart.

I'd like to propose that Steven should keep this wild hair styling even after the quarantine
