    That was strangely adorable.

    4:50 I can’t tell if this was scripted or a slip of the tongue with some great improv. I’m not 100% sure but when he says "Outright Law" Steven looks really surprised then has to stifle a laugh, meanwhile Lithgow tries to correct it only to realize that it only makes the scene funnier and rolls with it.

    How could someone throw away a decades long career for a madman? If Rudy had just been a quiet attorney and not seek public attention, he wouldnโ€™t be in the mess that heโ€™s in. Rudy hitched his wagon on Trump so he could get attention but now heโ€™s getting the attention he didnโ€™t expect. If heโ€™s low on funds, he should ask Trump for a few million dollars. Oh wait! Trump doesnโ€™t pay attorneys.

    Rudy owns a huge part in Colbert’s racist head๐Ÿคฃ

  6. Laurie on October 14, 2022 at 12:16 am

    Just DC. How about the Country? LOVE LOVE ๐Ÿ’• John LITHGOW ๐Ÿ˜Š

  7. Franklin Adams on October 14, 2022 at 12:16 am

    I would hate to be Rudy J’s son

  8. aaron johnson on October 14, 2022 at 12:18 am

    Awesome impression

  9. Chinh Tai on October 14, 2022 at 12:19 am

    just see inside?

  10. 61lastchild on October 14, 2022 at 12:19 am

    Yes, Rudy is a golem.
    Lithgow nailed it. Really interpreted the man.

  11. Toddf Rendell on October 14, 2022 at 12:20 am

    I never recognized Mr. Colbert’s asymmetrical ears until he pointed them out. Why can’t my neighbors be held to a higher standard of honesty? I myself am proud that my nose is larger than my penis.

  12. ROCH D. on October 14, 2022 at 12:21 am

    Outright whack job. Remember when โ€œthatโ€ was going to be US President?๐Ÿคฎ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ

  13. Cindy on October 14, 2022 at 12:21 am

    The orange idiot would never call his namesake & show that concern. Not saying Jr puts anything up his nose.

  14. Piete Koo on October 14, 2022 at 12:22 am

    Hilarious Rudi sketch๐Ÿ˜‚

  15. Deborah Pratt on October 14, 2022 at 12:25 am

    Really love John.

    #terrific

  17. OneFootSteve! on October 14, 2022 at 12:27 am

    After watching this, I want to see that miniseries The Comey Rule, which features Brendan Gleeson as Trump.

  18. Sandra (Sandy) Robinson on October 14, 2022 at 12:27 am

    I wouldn’t have recognized John Lithgow except for his voice.

  19. Robert English on October 14, 2022 at 12:28 am

    John Lithgow as Giuliani cracked me up somethin’ fierce! It’s understandable that he couldn’t be all that accurate, given the fact that it’s really hard for an intelligent person to act like a true imbecile. You either have it, or you don’t, and Rudy, Trump and a whole slew of MAGA republican’ts are the genuine article.

  20. PrivateNexus 5 on October 14, 2022 at 12:29 am

    I cant believe I didnt put 2&2 together, l and not know that Rudy would be portrayed by John Lithgow. It would of been easier to see the resemblance, if only he had a running dark brown hair colouring stain running down the side of his head,. Oh please, next time., and surely there is a famous "adult toys" shop in times square.

  21. Marv Watkins on October 14, 2022 at 12:32 am

    I’d prefer this Rudy.

  22. Jason Garcia on October 14, 2022 at 12:34 am

    Hey that โ€œmartial laaaaawwwwโ€ was actually pretty damn good

  23. Gaia Green on October 14, 2022 at 12:35 am

    The way he squints and looks around in confusion, absolutely priceless…

  24. jorge gonzalez-larramendi on October 14, 2022 at 12:35 am

    stephen"s rudy Rocks.
    beats trรธnald’s rudy.

  25. Mara Plantrees on October 14, 2022 at 12:35 am

    They shouldโ€™ve put dark brown stains on his bottom teeth

  26. Karen Hill on October 14, 2022 at 12:36 am

    John Lithgow, Respect! That impersonation was so good.

  27. AceSpadeThePikachu on October 14, 2022 at 12:36 am

    John Lithgow’s impression of Rudy Guiliani is so good I keep having to double-take and remind myself, "Oh yeah, that’s John Lithgow." I swear if anybody makes a mockumentary about Rudy they’d better do it fast while Lithgow is still able to play the role.

    Also it’s hilarious watching Stephen Colbert trying and failing to stifle his own laughter at Lithgow’s perfect performance.

  28. TC time on October 14, 2022 at 12:37 am

    Trump is finally telling the truth. … Most revealing 9 seconds on YouTube

  29. Pinwheels & Budddha on October 14, 2022 at 12:38 am

    โ€œAlso sometimes I sing jazzโ€ฆโ€ bravo! Masterful!

  30. Ms. OnyaCox on October 14, 2022 at 12:40 am

    What a great show first was amazing monologue and now this SKIT with John Lithgow and SHARON ๐Ÿคช๐Ÿคช๐Ÿคช๐Ÿคช

  31. bardboy18 on October 14, 2022 at 12:42 am

    Hilarious! But they need a new Times Square backdrop. That McDonalds has been closed 2 years, and Kinky Boots is no longer on Broadway.

  32. Yo-Yo- Wallkski on October 14, 2022 at 12:43 am

    John does it so well ! Dr. Emilio Lizardo,, Lord John Whorfin and of coarse Roberta / Robert Muldoon ! Just from seeing these characters long ago anyone could tell he had a very good future ahead of him !

  33. Neva on October 14, 2022 at 12:43 am

    Don’t worry S Covert your idol Hunter Biden won’t go to jail. The Nazi democratic party of the KKK will threaten the judges and jury or Pay them off.

  34. Derek Villorente on October 14, 2022 at 12:43 am

    Rudy drinks more "diet pepsi" than anyone in the world.

  35. David Elligott on October 14, 2022 at 12:43 am

    I donโ€™t know why but the way he sang โ€œmartial lawโ€ cracks me up ๐Ÿ˜‚

  36. michael Steven on October 14, 2022 at 12:44 am

    omg I’m dying laughing at the rudi Giuliani impression ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚ lol "they said my liver was too big to fail"๐Ÿ˜† also sometimes I sing jazz

  37. Sinnerella on October 14, 2022 at 12:47 am

    Rudy ? Was someone in the dental field experimenting with Chicklets for teeth.?

  38. Veronica Rabano on October 14, 2022 at 12:49 am

    His flipper is getting in the way LOL

  39. Edikzord on October 14, 2022 at 12:51 am

    ah, so it was Diet Pepsi that was leaking from his hair ๐Ÿ˜€

  40. Karen Conroy on October 14, 2022 at 12:51 am

    Brilliant ! John Lithgow is a chameleon. He can be anyone. Genius

  41. mike smith on October 14, 2022 at 12:51 am

    Best Giuliani impression ever

  42. Ivana Hugankiss on October 14, 2022 at 12:54 am

    John Lithgow โค๐Ÿคฃ he’s just simply fantastic!

  43. Francis Marcoux on October 14, 2022 at 12:55 am

    What did trump promessed rudy in exchange for his reputation?

  44. Jean Wilson on October 14, 2022 at 12:56 am

    ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿคฃ

  45. Ty Tn on October 14, 2022 at 12:57 am

    john Lithgow does a perfect imitation of Rudy, by revealing him as the clown that he is. This is political caricature at its best!

  46. Lex Slate on October 14, 2022 at 1:01 am

    The real Giuliani was always kind of a useless drunken authoritarian, as I hear it. He talked a big game to get elected mayor, held it together long enough to exploit a mass death incident to build up his personal brand, and the shine’s been coming off that turd ever since.

  47. xl on October 14, 2022 at 1:01 am

    I wonder who actually live in the residential buildings near or at Times Squares, and at which cost

  48. KT Bon on October 14, 2022 at 1:09 am

    He is good.
