Stephen Colbert got an assist on 'The Late Show' from some of his late-night rivals following CBS's sudden decision to axe the show.
Stephen Colbert is making headlines as The Late Show approaches its final season. In a rare show of late-night unity, Colbert welcomed Jimmy Fallon, Seth Meyers, Jon Stewart, and John Oliver on Monday night’s episode following CBS’s decision to cancel the program.
CBS brass say they pulled the plug on “The Late Show with Stephen Colbert” because of its punishing losses and claim politics had nothing to do with it, The Post has learned.
Given that the last “celebrity” in the crowd was a cartoon Donald Trump, seemingly drawn in the style of the Colbert-produced Tooning Out The News, Miranda said, “Tell me this has nothing to do with who we just put a spotlight on.”
Stephen Colbert's Late Show will end in May 2026 as CBS faces financial concerns, while politicians like Bernie Sanders question if the cancellation relates to Trump criticism.
Stewart admitted that he was “certainly not the most objective to comment on this matter” before sharing his feelings about the end of “The Late Show.”
