I need first-run Colbert!

I support the writer's strike. I believe they should get revenue from use of their work on the 'net and on DVDs.
But not having Stephen Colbert each night is killing me! I miss the Word! I miss the interviews! I miss the theme music!
Don't tell me I can watch the DVD "The Best of the Colbert Report". I've done that. I need first-run Colbert!
So, to the studios and writers, please please settle your dispute. Us Colbert fans shouldn't have to suffer!
