Hillary Clinton on Tuesday’s ‘Late Show’  

Stephen Colbert held up throwback photos of Clinton as suggestions for potential Halloween costumes.

Hillary Clinton isn’t playing favorites when it comes to GOP candidates — or pizza.

The frontrunner for the Democratic presidential nomination appeared on Tuesday’s Late Show, where host Stephen Colbert asked her whether she’d rather run against Donald Trump or Ben Carson for the Oval Office.

“I’m going to leave that to the Republicans,” Clinton replied. “If I say one or the other, it might influence some people, and I don’t want to have any influence on it.”

When Colbert followed up by asking, “You can picture either one of those guys in the office, right?” she fired back with: “I can picture them in some office.”

Colbert pointed out that the former New York Senator was born in Chicago and asked whether she preferred the pizza from the Big Apple or the Windy City.

“I’m not going to tell a soul publicly, but I’ll whisper it in your ear,” she demurred.

In the spirit of Halloween, Colbert held up old photos of Clinton as potential costume fodder for revelers this year.

“If anybody left in America has a Peter Pan-collar white shirt and a plaid jumper, you could do that,” Clinton joked about a pic of herself from high school.

“Fans sent me get-well-soon cards, while my hand doctor sent me a picture of his new Ferrari.”

Jimmy Fallon did not waste time addressing his newest injury on Monday’s Tonight Show.

Taking the stage in a hard hat, he then made jokes about having been taken to the hospital Oct. 24 after hurting his right hand following a fall at Harvard. This follows an injury to his left hand in June that required surgery.

“Welcome to the Tonight Show — I am your host, Trippy Fallon,” Fallon said Monday.

“This time, I injured my other hand right after getting an award from Harvard,” he said about the festivities at which he received the Elmer Award from the Harvard Lampoon. “Even after getting into Harvard, I still embarrass my parents.”

He said he got a variety of feedback after the mishap. “Fans sent me get-well-soon cards, while my hand doctor sent me a picture of his new Ferrari,” he cracked.

Fallon explained that the injury occurred when he tripped over a female attendee, causing him to drop a bottle of Jagermeister that he was planning to give someone as a gift.

“I threw the bottle and just landed on broken glass,” Fallon said, pointing out that there were “pools of blood everywhere.”

He made it clear to viewers that he was now fine after getting his hand treated: “I’m kind of used to going to hospitals now — it’s kind of fun.”

A still from Thursday’s ‘Daily Show’  

Noah pointed out that this is the eighth committee investigation into the attacks in Libya: “I’m just saying, maybe you should wonder if you’re overdoing it if you have more sequels than ‘The Fast and the Furious.’ “

Trevor Noah is suggesting an unusual way to experience the Benghazi hearings.

During Thursday’s episode, the Daily Show host showed footage of the most recent hearing, in which Hillary Clinton was asked to give details of the 2012 attacks in Libya.

Noah pointed out that the latest hearing lasted 10 hours. “That’s like a whole season of television that the House Select Committee just dropped on us, like they were Netflix or something,” he joked. “And I watched all of it because I don’t just Benghazi — I binge-ghazi.”

Noah mocked the fact that this is the eighth major committee investigation into the attacks.”I’m just saying, maybe you should wonder if you’re overdoing it if you have more sequels than The Fast and the Furious,” Noah said.

The host then showed a promo for director Michael Bay‘s upcoming film about Benghazi. “Bravo, Congress: You’re the only institution that can spend more money on something with no plot than Michael Bay,” Noah cracked.

“Actually, I take that back — Michael Bay has hits,” he added.
