"Colbert" officially starts now at 11:31, but that's par for the course for a lot of broadcast networks these days (Big Jaw officially starts at 11:34, "SNL" at 11:29 and SCG at 12:37). It could be that MTVN is running the repeats in full (if the syndicator is giving them the full-length version) to justify running the credits squashed at the bottom of the screen over the kicker scene.
