Maybe Coming Soon

It turns out that this is a recurring bit on the Stephen Colbert show, but I've never seen it before so I don't know if it consistently works, or if it's hit-and-miss. What I do know is that this time it was a big hit for me.
The premise is that his guest supposedly has a lot of new movies upcoming and he or she and Colbert were both in the films together. A bunch of fake posters are made up by the staff, and Colbert and the guest have to ad lib about the films to promote them.
It strikes me as a good idea that risks going nowhere -- but who knows, maybe the guests he's done this with have done good jobs with it. The guest here, though, is Jon Hamm -- and he and Colbert are terrific.
