      Audience Member I simply LOVE this Christmas special! Colbert combines old time (see 1970s) TV variety show Christmas specials with our post modern era including getting extremist right wing singer Tobey Keith to sing "Whats so Funny about Peace, Love and Understanding". I eagerly look forward to watching it every yeaerestanding". I eagirly look forword to watching it every year. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 02/02/23 Full Review Audience Member COLBERT CHRISTMAS SPECIAL REVIEW I love the Colbert Report; I love the satire, the character, and this special. This special is a combination of self parodying and funny guest stars (including Willie Nelson, Jon Stewart and Santa). The best thing about this special is the songs. The music videos are hilarious (from the Willie Nelson song to a great cover of What so funny about peace love and understanding). Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/26/23 Full Review Audience Member The best christmas music. Period. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 01/29/23 Full Review Audience Member Funny old timey-style Christmas special. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/14/23 Full Review Audience Member I really enjoy the Colbert Report, but this Christmas special was just a waste of time. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 02/20/23 Full Review Audience Member I do enjoy watching Steven Colbert. However, this film was rather painful to watch. Even seeing it for free on Comedy central didn't really make this worth watching. It seemed like an excuse for a bunch of Celebrities to get together to show themselves off in front of a camera. I pity the person who invested in the DVD. :) Rated 2 out of 5 stars 02/02/23 Full Review Read all reviews Post a rating

      Tim Goodman San Francisco Chronicle All told, it's not a classic, but there are worse ways to spend an hour (and for a good cause, maybe). Rated: 3/4 Nov 13, 2018 Full Review Carrie R. Wheadon Common Sense Media Mix of religious satire and old-timey holiday-special charm. Rated: 4/5 Dec 14, 2010 Full Review Ryan Cracknell Movie Views Leave it to Stephen Colbert to go post modern on the Christmas special and come up with a cheeky variety-format program of his own to take the modern mantle in the holiday television canon.
