TOPSHOT - A demonstrator holds a sign in support of Stephen Colbert outside the Ed Sullivan Theater, where "The Late Show with Stephen Colbert" show is produced, in New York City on July 18, 2025. Stephen Colbert's "The Late Show," long a staple of late night US television, will end in 2026, the CBS network said on July 17, days after the comedian blasted parent company Paramount's $16 million settlement with President Donald Trump as "a big fat bribe." CBS said in a statement the cancellation was "purely a financial decision against a challenging backdrop in late night," and was "not related in any way to the show's performance, content or other matters happening at (parent company) Paramount."
