Stephen Colbert has the #1 late night show on broadcast television. Therefore, it makes sense that CBS wants to keep his talk show going for as long as they can. So today, CBS president and CEO George Cheeks announced at the Banff World Media Festival that it will be around for three more seasons.
The Late Show debuted in 2015, and the extension will have it going until season 11 in 2026.
James Corden said goodbye to late night television yesterday. But before he signed off from The Late Late Show, he was visited by the Ghosts of Late Night Present: Seth Meyers, Jimmy Kimmel, Stephen Colbert, and Jimmy Fallon in his bedroom.
They instructed him that he cannot share the late night secrets with the world. But, they also showed him a glimpse of his future, thanks to the Ghost of Late Night Past, David Letterman.
And if that was not enough, we got a glimpse of what his life will be like in six months. And he is not going to be alone because Trevor Noah got visited by the same Ghosts.
This was a brilliant idea, and I am happy they all agreed to do it. But I have one question, where was Conan O’Brien???
Harrison Ford is starring alongside Jason Segel in Apple TV+’s Shrinking, and there is a report that Han Solo didn’t know who his co-star was.
So yesterday, when Ford was on The Late Show, Stephen Colbert wanted to know if that is true. It is not. Indiana Jones knew who Segel was, and he knew him intimately.
In fact, Ford told Colbert that Segel “has a nice penis.” Is that how he got to know his co-worker? Nope. The legendary actor saw Forgetting Sarah Marshall and will never forget seeing Segel’s penis four times.
Now, back to the interview. Ford has such a dry sense of humor; I can’t tell if he hated his chat with the CBS late night host or not. What do you think?
It is that time of year when a male celebrity is named People’s Sexiest Man Alive. Last year, they gave the title to Paul Rudd, and this year it was given to Chris Evans.
Stephen Colbert was going to give it to him on The Late Show, but the actor is too busy filming Red One with The Rock. So, they decided that it would be best if the man who was voted that in 2016 would pass on the honor to his co-star. However, Dwayne Johnson is unwilling to give up people calling him that. I mean, he will always be the People’s Sexiest Man Alive, so why can’t he be called that for the rest of his life? Therefore, he is willing to share it with Captain America!
Enough about that. How does Evans feel about being deemed sexy? He wrote, “Thanks @people!! I think we can all agree that it’s damn near impossible to follow in Paul Rudd’s footsteps in any capacity, but I’ll do my best.” If you think about it, Rudd is just an Ant-Man compared to him…
One last thing? Has anyone heard from Lizzo since the announcement? You think she would be screaming from the rooftops about her boo. But maybe, she doesn’t want to share his sexiness with all of us.
On Thursday night, several staff members from The Late Show were arrested at the Capitol Building after they spent the last two days interviewing Congresspeople on both sides about the January 6th insurrection.
By Friday night, it was big news, and some sites claimed that Triumph the Insult Comic Dog and his Dogs were committing their own insurrection.
Yesterday, Stephen Colbert explained what happened, and Fox News will not be airing his explanation. “Thursday, after they finished their interviews, they were doing some last-minute puppetry and jokey make-em-ups in a hallway when Triumph and my folks were approached and detained by the Capitol Police.”
The CBS late night host explained that he could understand why the Capitol Police did it. He says they are much more cautious because of something that happened almost 18 months ago. So, it is completely understandable why the staffers were detained and released without incident.
Colbert was not done with his explanation. He then blamed this all on Conan O’Brien because he gave us Triumph the Insult Comic Dog. And he is right; everything is Conan’s fault.
Seriously though, this bipartisan shit needs to stop. We are so divided that we can’t see the truth that is right in front of us. We all bleed red no matter who we vote for. So, stop acting like you are better than us because you voted a certain way. You are not. Why can’t we all get along? And if you are listening to someone who wants to divide us, then you are listening to the wrong person! Go eat a happy brownie and let’s all listen to bitchin’ music together! Just not Beyoncé’s new song.
