'The Colbert Report' confirms Jeff Goldblum is dead... not

Categories: TV Last Night

With most of the other talk shows in reruns this week, it was left to The Colbert Report to do the hard-news celebrity reporting required of the past busy weekend. I speak, of course, about the rumored death of Jeff Goldblum:

The Colbert Report Mon – Thurs 11:30pm / 10:30c
Jeff Goldblum Will Be Missed

Well, thank heaven that’s settled. And so eloquent a self-eulogy as well. Characters welcome.

    I love Stephen, I follow him on Twitter, and he is one of the most fabulous comediens in today’s time. Being a right-wing “nut”, he really drives the left crazy. LOL.

    Now what am I supposed to do with all of “The Big Chill” Goldblum action figures I bought throughout the past week?

  • Erin

    When Jeff Goldbum eventually dies for real (which hopefully won’t be for a very, very long time, of course), I think this hilarious appearance on Colbert will be remembered as one of his finest moments.

    That was genious! When I heard the fake news this weekend, I know The Report would do something with it. Well played, as ususal! :D
    Don’t forget to catch Law and Order CI on Sundays on the USA Network ;)

    ALL of Goldblum’s appearances on Colbert have been gold. I hope they keep having him on.
    And why aren’t we hearing more about Golblum on L&O?? I’ve never been a particularly big L&O fan before, but suddenly it’s become a can’t-miss show for me! He’s breathed a TON of life into it, and is just fun as hell to watch. It’s a shame we can only see him every other week.

    LOL. I love Jeff Goldblum. Great follow-up to Goldblum’s hilarious advertisting-laden appearance a week or so on Colbert about “the fly incident”.

  • Jack

    Ken, it’s all Stewart, Colbert and Dave all the time. We get it, you worship them. Me? Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz.

    His career died, just kidding from Appatow. http://www.niceguyswanted.com/

    Loved the clip! I’m so glad the news of his death turned out to be false. I am loving him on Law and Order Criminal Intent this year. I hope they don’t make any changes to that cast now and keep that show going for a few more seasons to come. It’s great! Though for God’s sake can we get the thing on DVD??? One two and three are out but how much friggin longer must we wait for the rest of them???
