Two nights ago on The Colbert Report, Stephen Colbert had a segment on the show about broadcast networks wanting to be more indecent, stepping on basic cable's turf. Outraged, he decided to perform an classy, hilarious indecent monologue with guest Hugh Laurie. Video is NSFW due to the potty mouth words!

On last night's episode of The Colbert Report on Comedy Central, actor extraordinaire Bryan Cranston was on the show to talk about the upcoming second half of the final season of AMC's Breaking Bad.
