P.K. Winsome

I guess the whole "end is in sight" of the The Colbert Report is really affecting me. I try to continue on normally as if nothing is going to change. But I'm sad. So sad I can barely write anything. Woe is me.

Last night Stephen was honored to have P.K. Winsome on the show - maybe for the last time. But it got me to thinking. What could the future hold for all of us? Well not for Stephen, he's got that pretty well figured out.

All those people that work for and with Stephen. All those guests. All those experts that he has had on the show. And all those interns. I'm looking at you, Jay.

My mind just starts whirring and whirling. Perhaps we are seeing hints of future shows for this time slot. Here's one idea. It's free, Stephen, so run with it.

Hire P.K. Winsome to have sort of a shopping/auction/charity show. All that stuff on the set, all those awards, all of that memorabilia, needs to go somewhere. Auction it off! Every night (Monday through Thursday) P. K. Winsome can have a guest on and the two of them will talk about two or three items from the set of The Colbert Report. Fans of the show can bid on the items. The revenue can go to one or some of Stephen's favorite charities, or it could go to Jay the Intern who has worked for all these many years as an unpaid employee.

What do you think?
