Doctor's Diary

Doctor's Diary (2008-2011)

EndedScripted showComedy, Medical

The protagonist is Dr. Gretchen Haase who causes turmoil not only in the surgical ward but also in the hearts of her colleagues. After a disastrous relationship Gretchen goes back to the house of her parents, a professor of surgery and a competent uber-mother. Gretchen's aim is to finally pursue her career and to forget men. She copes with professional adventures in a charming and unselfish manner - but her love-life soon becomes chaotic. Her new senior physician, Dr. Marc Meier, is not only the worst macho in the department, he also happens to be Gretchen's long-term teenage heartthrob. Or does the good-natured gynaecologist Dr. Mehdi Kaan maybe have the better cards? Gretchen Haase never presents herself as a goddess in a white overall, but she remains a very normal woman who pursues her career, yet always listens to her heart. And her heart does not always beat rationally. From the standpoint of an imperfect and witty protagonist the genre "Medical" becomes amusing family entertainment with addiction potential. Finally we have the proof: doctors are only human. They tell lies, fall in love and suffer. And for obesity and love sickness a cure has yet to be found.

The Late Show with Stephen Colbert

Stephen Colbert brings his signature satire and comedy to The Late Show with Stephen Colbert, the #1 show in late-night. Featuring bandleader Jon Batiste with his band Stay Human, the Emmy Award-nominated show broadcasts from the historic Ed Sullivan Theater. He talks with an eclectic mix of guests about what is new and relevant in the worlds of politics, entertainment, business, music, technology, and more. Stephen Colbert took over as host, executive producer, and writer of The Late Show on Sept. 8, 2015. 

Colbert is best known for his work as a television host, writer, actor, and producer, and lest known for his charity work teaching English as a second language on Tunisian date farms. Before joining the CBS family -- and being officially adopted by network president Les Moonves -- Colbert helmed The Colbert Report, which aired nearly 1,500 episodes and required Stephen to wear nearly 1,500 different neckties. The program received two Peabody Awards, two Grammy Awards, and several unwelcome shoulder massages. It won two Emmys for Outstanding Variety Series in 2013 and 2014, both of which appear to have been lost in the move. Colbert is pronounced koʊlˈbɛər, according to Wikipedia. His understudy is William Cavanaugh, who will be hosting The Late Show approximately one-third of the time. Good luck, Bill!
