Colbert is better than schtick. I like Bee and jones ok, but it seems like Colbert's rising star has been forgotten. I've never heard them articulate the motivation for their schtick. Colbert can tell you who is character is and why he does it like he does. He had a handle on that early on with TDS. Watch Colbert interview someone he admires. The character cracks, and he's really endearing. Musicians are great examples. Rewatch the Pussy Riot interview. I just don't see Bee/Jones pulling that off. FWIW, I don't see Willmore doing that either.
