Leftists are reacting to the news that “The Late Show with Stephen Colbert” will broadcast its last episode in May 2026. Many comments on social media responded to Colbert’s posting of a monologue on Instagram, announcing the news.   View this post on Instagram   A post shared by The Late Show (@colbertlateshow) “The greatest to ever do it,” former Late Show band leader Jon Batiste wrote in reply.  “My admiration and appreciation for you is bottomless. Excited to see what other brilliance you put into the world,” filmmaker and producer Judd Apatow said.  “I am so upset about this. I need more information. We love you,” journalist Katie Couric wrote. “Snow White” star Rachel Zegler also shared her thoughts, writing, “I am extremely sad. I adore you, Stephen.” “Love you Stephen. This is absolute bulls***, and I for one am looking forward to the next 10 months of shows,” Adam Scott of “Severance” fame added. Fellow late-night host Jimmy Kimmel also reacted to the news, sharing in his Instagram Stories, “Love you Stephen. F*** you and all your Sheldons CBS.” Senator Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) questioned if CBS’s motives for the cancellation had anything to do with politics. “CBS canceled Colbert’s show just THREE DAYS after Colbert called out CBS parent company Paramount for its $16M settlement with Trump — a deal that looks like bribery,” Warren wrote in an X post. “America deserves to know if his show was canceled for political reasons.” Senator Adam Schiff (D-CA) had similar suspicions.  “Just finished taping with Stephen Colbert who announced his show was cancelled,” he wrote. “If Paramount and CBS ended the Late Show for political reasons, the public deserves to know. And deserves better.” The cancellation announcement marked the end of a nearly 11-year run that Colbert has had hosting “The Late Show,” which first began in 1993 under the former host, David Letterman. The network said that it is scrapping “The Late Show” franchise and will not move on to another host after Colbert. “We consider Stephen Colbert irreplaceable and will retire ‘THE LATE SHOW’ franchise at that time. We are proud that Stephen called CBS home. He and the broadcast will be remembered in the pantheon of greats that graced late night television,” CBS said in a statement. “This is purely a financial decision against a challenging backdrop in late night. It is not related in any way to the show’s performance, content or other matters happening at Paramount,” it continued.
