I'll do the reviewing of this article. I'll get started sometime soon (15-30 minutes).
Overview
Things are mostly good. I'm using the template below to do this review as it is a lot easier.
Text
Are all of his siblings dead? If not this should be in present tense (are vs. were).Colbert children- When reading this you assume that the article means Stephen Colbert's children, not his siblings."In interviews, Colbert has described his parents as devout..." would read better as "In interviews, Colbert describes his parents as devout...".Fourth paragraph about plane crash- This reads rather oddly. I'm not sure if this is a BRITENG or something else. (What is this written in American English? I can't really tell.
Awards and honorsStephen Colbert#The Colbert Report should be longer, this is, mainly, what he is famous for.- His work is referenced to in other sections, the section explains his work substantially without taking over the purpose of the other article. —Ғяіᴆaз'§Đøøм • Champagne? • 4:08pm • 05:08, 13 November 2010 (UTC)

Comments
Breadth of Coverage: Any thought to having a section of the article listing critics comments on his work? I know his White House Correspondents' Dinner was not well-received. Also, although I personally enjoyed his 2010 Congressional testimony and thought that it was worthy of "C-Span 1", there were a number of critical reviews.
