Colbert Pitches Gilbert Gottfried as the Sex and the City Revival's New Samantha

With fans split over Kim Cattrall's absence from HBO Max's new Sex and the City revival, on Monday night's Late Show, Stephen Colbert openly wondered "what is Sex and the City without its most sex-positive character? Samantha is the chaotic good that Carrie, Miranda, and Charlotte need to push their own uptight boundaries! The show needs her! We need her!"

He then pitched a replacement for Cattrall in the role of Samantha Jones. If you've never heard Gilbert Gottfried yelling about doing kegels, jump to the 7:00 mark in the above clip.
