Stephen Colbert’s Live Election Night Democracy’s Series Finale: Who’s Going to Clean Up This Sh*t?: Directed by Jim Hoskinson. With Stephen Colbert, Mark Halperin, John Heilemann, Jeff Goldblum. Stephen Colbert hosts a live special on the night of the U.S. presidential election between Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump.

“This was a long special of Stephen Colbertu0026#39;s, basically a Late Night with Stephen Colbert special episode (airing instead of his usual late night show).u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eIt started okay but came off of the rails very quickly as more and more states came in for Donald Trump. You could tell that Colbert (who is openly pro-Hillary and liberal-leaning) was not comfortable or impressed, and he got more upset and put off as the night went on. You can also say the same for his disappointed audience, who are likewise left-leaning and anti-Trump.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eHe stayed in the game and basically took it on the chin but this was not a funny show, not a fun show to watch, and really was kind of a train wreck. Colbert probably said it best himself — u0026quot;Stephen Colbert called this special the hardest show he ever had to do. About two hours of material relating to Hillary Clintonu0026#39;s expected victory, including made-up commercials, were cut once it was clear that Clinton was most likely going to lose. Unable to go to commercial or use the made-up commercials, Colbert had to do the whole live show for an openly sobbing u0026quot;audience of the condemned,u0026quot; as he said.u0026quot;”
