The “Even Stevens” Stephen Colbert and Steve Carrell were both writers & performers for Craig Kilborn, and before that they were both writers on Dana Carvey’s short-lived sketch comedy show that had the fatal luck of being scheduled against a new comedy show called Home Improvement.
Jon Stewart or the others?
It was before Jon Stewart. And I’m pretty sure it was Colbert who actually did the on scene reporting.
Colbert started two years before Stewart?
Yes. Craig Kilborn was the host for the first 3ish years. Colbert was a correspondent from midway through Kilborn’s tenure.
