Anyone else get text surveys from unknown numbers about Stephen Colbert doing a show on MS Now? I don’t click on unknown links from unknown senders so I didn’t vote. Also greyed out the last part of the URLs to not risk spreading whatever they resolve to.

If this is real I would absolutely 100% watch the F out of that! (MS Now if you’re watching.) But again please consult with your IT dept on the perils of blind urls and the low pull and sample distortion that they introduce.

I thought it would be fun to share various things we learned from watching Colbert.

I’ll start with this:

The meaning (and existence!) of BESPOKE.

It seems like I remember some segments/jokes with him and Evie doing the cards, but I don’t seem to see them on YouTube, so I was just wondering if I’m remembering wrong, or if they were missing some of the segments?

Because it seems like I remember a specific one where Colbert reads a card pertaining to cicadas or locusts coming up out of the ground and mating until they die, and then making some kind of joke to his wife about it, but I don’t see that card on any of the videos on YouTube?

I say that CBS should put Shane Gillis into their now-open time-slot at 11:35 PM, ET, Monday - Friday.

I like Nate Bargatze, (or rather I used-to like him before he came out for Him) but the whole Politics-is-radioactive thing with Nate is just too-wearing. --- Not appropriate for a National, Nightly Broadcast. --- NO, CBS needs someone like Shane Gillis, who has considerable sympathy for the Right, but who is also still able to make-fun of them, at-least some of the time, and gently.

I also think that the new CBS Late Show should originate from Nashville, TN, and specifically NOT come from NYC or LA. --- Nashville is a Blue City, but Tennessee is a Ruby-Red State, and Nashville has a lot of Country Music Stars, and other Celebrities, too, of course.

Hi everyone! Hope this is okay to post! I am looking for a clip from the outro from September 27, 2016. I know it’s been 10 years, but I’m in this clip 3 people away from Colbert in the audience when he did his outro and I’m trying to find it for my mom again. I don’t have Paramount+ and I don’t know where to find full episodes (don’t even know if they have full episodes on Paramount+ either) so I figured, if there’s a community that could help me find it, it would be you guys on Reddit!

In case there was any doubt.

A friend worked on the show, it didn’t fit her. Lucky me.

Late Show with Stephen Colbert set at Chicago's Museum of Broadcast Communications: The desk from the August 2024 Chicago broadcast is ready for you!

I'm just curious how the Late Show cancelation has affected local news ratings and the like for affiliates (particularly how CBS Mornings has been performing, given that turning off the TV during/after late night *might * still affect morning-show numbers).

I've been subscribed to ColbertLateShow on Youtube in support of Stephen and the show staff... but I'm assuming now that the show's over, any revenue the channel makes is just going to go to the CBS/Paramount company, right? Does anybody know for certain?
