What Jimmy Fallon said
Fallon, host of NBC’s The Tonight Show, shared a longer response on Instagram. ABC reproduced his statement: “I’m just as shocked as everyone. Stephen is one of the sharpest, funniest hosts to ever do it. I really thought I’d ride this out with him for years to come. I’m sad that my family and friends will need a new show to watch every night at 11:30.” ABC News
Fallon continued by describing Colbert as “a gentleman and a true friend over the years,” and said their relationship went back to The Colbert Report. He added that he was sure Colbert’s next project would be “just as brilliant.” TheWrap
Why is The Late Show ending?
CBS announced on July 17, 2025, that The Late Show with Stephen Colbert would conclude in May 2026 and that the network was retiring the Late Show franchise. Colbert told his studio audience during that day’s taping that the next season would be the show’s last. CBS News
CBS characterized the move as a financial decision amid a challenging late-night environment and said it was not related to the program’s performance or content. That is the network’s stated explanation, not an independently established account of its motives. CBS also said it was proud Colbert had called the network home and that he and the broadcast would be remembered among late-night television’s greats. CBS News
Some public criticism questioned whether political considerations played a role, including a call from Sen. Adam Schiff for transparency if they did. Those questions and criticisms do not establish an alternative motive; the announced reason remains CBS’s financial explanation. TheWrap
