I love that Evie got her own little chant - "Evie! Evie! Evie!..." 🎉

She's awesome, she deserves it. 💃

[Leslie]

Okay... I totally teared up when Evie came on the stage. She has been such a blessing and joy during this past year and her love and support for Stephen is palpable.

[michaelvilain]

Her laugh during the lockdown episodes was worth it's weight in gold.

[gavinproduction]

It's looks like he was about to cry when the crowd chanted "Evie".

[rocketgruntquang]

Over the past year, it has been so wonderful to get to know Evie. She never asked to be a part of this but I'm so thankful she was.

[marybellefleur]

I'll miss the broom closet with Evie's sweet giggles. It was like he was talking directly to each of us.

[montlejohnbojangles]

I'm going to miss hearing Evie in the background giggling at Stephen's worst jokes. It's been a delight.

[dallasl]

Evie completely stole the show. She looks fantastic in that dress, even when she's taking the piss out of Stephen.

[averyvonfrank]

it feels like i’m watching an old clip but in the best way possible

[toniamoore]

That hug between Stephen and Evie was like “We got to the other side!!” 🥲💖

[luuketaylor]

This was so wonderful to see the excitement and joy on everyone's faces. The happiness was real, and I was beaming too. Then Evie came out and I teared up because she's been a rock for the show these past 460 days and I'm not alone in wanting to see her continue to appear in the show going forwards. What a perfect way to end the monologue. We love you, Evie!

[TheBlindAcorn]

His wife was fantastic all year. She laughed genuinely and she really looks like a sweet lady

[elhopper]

I’m gonna miss Colbert home edition. The small atmosphere and the cameraman always laughing at the jokes put a smile on my face. Plus Evie is so adorable when she’s there with him

[ahlokecafe_articulate]

I watched colbert show all the way thru the pandemic home edition.. What a great job he and his team havw done. Now he's back.. Woo hoo! 😂

[tokyotank]

The crowd chanting “Evie” cures my depression.

“Don’t forget to laugh because he really needs it” 😭😭😭

[DinoJake]

I know a lot of people say they're annoyed by audience laughter and cheering, but it's pretty obvious that Stephen Colbert needed a live audience after being cooped up in a small space for 15 months. Seriously, look at him - he's the happiest he's been in over a year, and honestly, good for him.

[debbY]

I never realized how much physical acting factored in to his comedy, but wow. Stephen is on fire!

[aztn]

Evie wasn’t ready for the “EVIE” chant, and her reaction to it was precious!!

[kachinalajones]

Stephen Colbert and his precious wife's giggle sustained us throughout a fearful dark time

[alikhatib]

Stephen is like the geek who got the hottest chick.
And Evie is like the luckiest girl who got the guy that makes laugh all the time.
They are adorkable.
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
