This Colbert and Stewart bit might be the best moment in Emmy history

Unsurprisingly, Colbert and Steward delivered a stirring Emmy speech that had the entire crowd on their feet. Though they’re both much younger, it’s easy to see that these two men have very big futures in front of them and that they are on the path to greatness. Since then they’ve both moved on to bigger and better things (or at least Colbert has), and their stage presence and timing is certainly worth a moment of admiration.
