I hope Fallon and Kimmel meet the same fate.

Almost a year advanced notice? Wish the average Joe could afford that luxury.

Every time he comes on I tell my wife that I'm not watching that damn communist. Every single time.

To me the worst of the braying jackasses is Jon Stewart. The sight of him makes me gag. Good news about Colbert!

He is not a real comedian. A true comedian could find humor on both sides of the political spectrum, not just jokes about Trump and conservatives. What a shame he and the others decided to avoid Biden jokes, that administration gave them more raw material than could be imagined, and they just ignored it.

Colbert, Kimmel and Fallon are not true comedians. Comedy picks on everyone and theirs only slams the right.

Maher is actually kind of funny because he takes shots at all sides.

These guys are hacks masquerading as comics. Won't miss Colbert but come to think of it, I never have watched him.

Colbert’s picture is in the dictionary next to the word, “smarmy,” and I can’t think of another person that I would apply that word to. Too bad he’s taking up band width for another 10 months.

Hilarious.

"But" nothing you loon. These corporations are not charities. And the idea that Colbert might be willing to "change" the format if given the opportunity is the funniest part of all. There's no way that would ever happen.

He's why the dumped him


quote:
Stephen Colbert's contract with CBS for "The Late Show" has been the subject of several reports regarding its value and his salary. In 2019, he signed a deal extending his contract through 2023 with an annual salary of $15 million. There are reports that he subsequently extended his contract through 2026, though details of that specific negotiation are not publicly known. Sources suggest his salary may have increased during that time.

Him and several others should have been given their walking papers years ago. Just hope they do not get picked up and find another home anywhere in the media....... drill sgt.

As someone on Fox suggested, MSNBC may hire him for the slot opposite Gutfeld, where he will promptly be crushed in the ratings.

You might say that they can't be that stupid, but the fact is, yeah, they're that stupid.

"America deserves to know"

Why does "America" deserve to know whatever about this? What difference would it make? Do you think CBS or Paramount is going to come out and say "We said it was financial reasons but we lied to you and here's the real reason"? Roll Eyes

It's just a TV show, or is it?
