Watch The Late Show with Stephen Colbert weeknights at 11:35 PM ET/10:35 PM CT. Only on CBS.

---
Stephen Colbert took over as host of The Late Show on Tuesday, Sept. 8, 2015. Colbert is best known for his work as a television host, writer, actor, and producer, and best known for his charity work teaching English as a second language on Tunisian date farms. Prior to joining the CBS family -- and being officially adopted by network president Les Moonves -- Colbert helmed “The Colbert Report,” which aired nearly 1,500 episodes and required Stephen to wear nearly 1,500 different neckties. The program received two Peabody Awards, two Grammy Awards, and several unwelcome shoulder massages. It won two Emmys for Outstanding Variety Series in 2013 and 2014, both of which appear to have been lost in the move. Colbert is pronounced koʊlˈbɛər, according to Wikipedia. His understudy is William Cavanaugh, who will be hosting The Late Show approximately one third of the time. Good luck, Bill!"

This guy is a fantastic actor with natural charisma, who steals every scene he's in. It's no accident that he was cast in two of the greatest shows ever made.

[demetriusmccray]

“I’m using an accent right now.” That was an underrated drop

[deividchg]

He's one of those people who make you smile just with their presence

[tiscover]

Love Narcos - especially the fact they use spanish and not the english-with-spanish-accent bullshit. makes it so much authentic!

[rockrollangel]

I could literally listen to Pedro speak all day has such a soothing voice. needs to do audiobooks

[grobannoel]

Don't you love it when you really enjoy an actor's performance on a particular show and they turn out to be way cool in real life. Definitely a nice guy and good actor.

[joannajaneth]

"what's wrong?"
"I don't know, what's wrong?"
"You're being different"
"So are you" I can't stop watching this, I love him so much

[gengames]

I'm a simple man. I see someone from Narcos cast, i like.

[gabrielvazquez]

He’s the Chilean keanu reeves, nice af and an amazing actor, he’s got so much more ahead I can’t wait to see more of his work

[grayfox]

love his hair. always looks like he was taking a nap on a couch before interview

[aydh]

Stephen please have Pedro back for a longer segment! He is fun to watch and listen to!

[Anthony]

Chilean actor, they play salsa when he comes in... for the gringos, we all live in an episode of El Zorro.

[MrPaceTv]

Mandalorian, GOT and Narcos . Now that is hell of a Resume . 👏

[memo]

A very euphonious voice on him, not too raspy, great in The Mandalorian.

[zunaidchowdhowry]

I know people love Pedro Pascal for Oberyn Martell but his role Javier Pena in narcos was truly outstanding I recommend people watch narcos it's the best crime show there is right now

[terez]

I just realized that I don't usually see Pedro Pascal smiling and having very mobil facia reactions. On TV he always has this serious face and voice and seeing him all happy and giggly right now... he's adorable. haha

[rosemontgomery]

"I'm just thinking about the drugs I'm not supposed to be doing" then giving the smile of a little kid who knows he's in trouble but doesn't care...ugh I love this guy

[dinamirm.]

Dude can talk for hours and I'd be listening intently

[PASTRAMIKick]

When Oberyn had his head crushed he must've had a lot of units of pressure on his face many "PASCALS"!.

[noirettebeauty]

Hes one of those men that embody a fine-ness simultaneously while being hilarious
