I live in New Zealand and watch the colbert report via colbert nation. I can no longer do this because I am now met with a message which says "Sorry, full episodes of the colbert report are no longer available in your area". Are people from other countries having the same problem?

 

Now the colbert report is not broadcast in New Zealand, so this seems like a pretty short sighted move (there are a lot of fans over here). 

 

Colbert and crew, the nationdelivers for you, now find a way to deliver your episodes to me.

I too, am a loyal member of the Colbert Nation from New Zealand.

 

Please Stephen, making us unable to watch goes against common sense. You have a lot of fans here and all over the world who are today very sad and feel betrayed.

 

It is your international audience (particularly onliners) that give the nation its power. Without us the nation will be a weak imitation of its past glories.

 

The future of media is free online, I thought you were a ground breaker. Turns out you might just be as capitalist as you claim :smileywink:

 

C'mon nation, lets get together and overturn this travesty.

I am in Sweden and it's blocked both here and in Denmark.  The Daily Show has the same restrictions.  I am very dissappointed in whoever has made this decision.  Badly Done Sir!

The Colbert Report screens on Sky TV weekdays at 12.30 and 6.30, through the Comedy Central Channel. Just a matter of getting sky...

I actually do already have sky, but I prefer to watch online when I want.

 

The real issue here is that information and entertainment will inevitably by freely distributed through the internet. Lets cut the crap and stop trying to enforce a copyright system that is irrelevant to our modern methods of information transfer.

I agree. 

 

At the very least this website could continue to provide a streaming service until SkyTv provides an alternative. But I predict the response from sky would be "upgrade to my ski".

I have just joined this site as I had to say something!  We in the UK have also been blocked from watching ANYTHING Comedy Central has online for the past month or so.  Colbert, Daily Show, South Park, the lot.  I emailed them last week to ask why but there is no answer.  It was bad enough that FX Channel stopped showing The Colbert Report months ago, so much so that I, like many others here, only had access to the show online.  Now this blockade.

Clearly this is a money issue but no one will admit to that or give details.  This money argument now means that pretty much anyone outside the USA cannot watch Colbert anymore.  Thanks a lot you guys, way to show you care.  PS I do have Sky but it is not shown on any channel, including Comedy Central, at any time over here.

To summarise, Comedy Central clearly are trying to recoup the money they lost on Dave Chappelle and the rest of the world are missing out as a result.
