Stephen Colbert

CBS’s Stephen Colbert delivered his usual round of lackluster one-liners during his news summary on Wednesday night’s episode of The Late Show. After a couple digs at Congresswoman Nancy Mace (R-SC) and astronauts stranded in space, the host pivoted to the latest on President-elect Trump and the $15 million settlement in his defamation suit with ABC News; the first time a show on CBS…

CBS’s Stephen Colbert may fancy himself as a comedian, but basic journalistic standards such as accuracy still apply to him and his jokes. However, The Late Show host used his Tuesday show to spread fake news about Defense Secretary-designate Pete Hegseth as Hegseth attempted to defend himself against a media that continues to spread disinformation about his views on women in the…

In his past life, Secretary of Defense nominee Pete Hegseth did some things he is not proud of but insists that he is a different man today. Instead of celebrating Hegseth’s transformation, the late night comedians mocked his pledge not to drink on the job on their Wednesday shows and attacked his mom for defending him.

CBS’s host of The Late Show, Stephen Colbert, and ABC’s Jimmy Kimmel were displeased on their Tuesday shows that some people are still criticizing President Joe Biden for pardoning his son, Hunter. For both men, the re-election of Donald Trump makes such criticisms moot.

The men of late night comedy struggled on their Monday shows to reconcile their support for President Joe Biden and his decision to pardon his son, Hunter.

CBS's Stephen Colbert welcomed House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries to the Thursday taping of The Late Show to promote his new children's book and to help explain the difference between Republicans and Democrats. This being The Late DNC Show, Colbert would conclude that the answer is that Republicans don't believe everyone should have health care.

Two themes the late night comedians have tried to hammer away at recently are that President-elect Donald Trump’s nominee for Attorney General, Matt Gaetz, is a sex pest and that Trump himself is a threat to the rule of law who has been emboldened by the Supreme Court’s immunity ruling. Therefore, the worst possible guest they could interview would be former President Bill Clinton, but that is…

During a panel discussion of the state of late-night comedy for the next four years, CNN commentator Scott Jennings took aim at the gang of dour, unfunny regime comics that litter the TV landscape.

The six late night comedy shows vacillated between liberal pep talks, sadness, and anger on Wednesday as most of them reacted to Donald Trump’s presidential election victory. From asking “What the actual [bleep], America?” to mourning the demise of democracy, here is a Notable Quotables-style compliation of Wednesday’s tapings of Comedy Central’s The Daily Show, ABC’s Jimmy Kimmel…
