Colbert's Curtain Call: Stewart, Spielberg and Springsteen Lead The Late Show Farewell Week
TL;DR Summary
Deadline reports The Late Show with Stephen Colbert will end its CBS run on May 21, 2026, with a star-packed final week: Jon Stewart and Steven Spielberg visit on May 19, Bruce Springsteen performs on May 20 (along with a Colbert Questionert edition), and the series finale airs May 21. The move comes amid Skydance’s Paramount Global merger and related fallout, and Comics Unleashed is planned to shift into the Late Show’s slot for the 2026-27 season as part of new arrangements.
