On Tuesday night I was watching the debut of Late Night With Stephen Colbert. The opening credits came on with scenes from NYC when all of a sudden I was stunned to see the Roosevelt Island Tram passing over the East River
with the name of the Late Show Band – Jon Batiste & Stay Human on the sides of the cabin.
Just saw Roosevelt Island Tram featured in opening credits of Late Show With Stephen Colbert

Here’s the Late Show with Stephen Colbert opening monologue and full credits sequence including the Roosevelt Island Tram near the end. Another example that Roosevelt Island is not in Kansas anymore Toto.
