Stephen Colbert is receiving messages of support and affection from his fellow late-night hosts after announcing that CBS was canceling his show, “The Late Show With Stephen Colbert,” next May.
Kelly said on her show Friday that Colbert took “The Late Show” ― which was started by David Letterman ― and “completely drove it into the ground.” “He desperately wanted to be Keith Olbermann,” she said.
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.
Comedian Rosie O’Donnell took to TikTok to voice her concerns about which of Trump’s critics could be next following the news CBS was axing The Late Show, hosted by Stephen Colbert, earlier this week.
