The Late Show, Stephen Colbert
Digest more
Sandra Oh criticized CBS and Paramount during her appearance on 'The Late Show with Stephen Colbert' on July 21 after its cancellation was announced. The network said it was "a financial decision," but the news came days after Colbert criticized Paramount for its $16 million settlement with President Donald Trump.
In his first episode since announcing the cancellation of "Late Show," Stephen Colbert had choice words for Trump, who'd celebrated the news.
Kicking off Monday’s show with a joke about Trump wanting to change the name of the Washington Commanders NFL team (the “Washington Epsteins”, Colbert suggested), he walked into the Ed Sullivan theater to loud cheers and said “This is going to be fun”. It certainly was.
The late-night host acknowledged that "a lot of people out there are bummed" about the show ending next May, so he tapped a few famous friends to cheer everyone up.
