Stephen Colbert

CBS’s Stephen Colbert and his wife, Evie, joined PBS News Hour on Monday to promote their new cookbook and discuss his approach to The Late Show. Colbert told Amna Nawaz that he will not welcome “disingenuous” politicians to his show, but not only is that not true, “disingenuous” might as well be Colbert’s way of saying “Republicans.”

CBS’s Stephen Colbert welcomed Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau to Monday’s taping of The Late Show in an attempt to help him reverse his collapse in the polls by labeling his Conservative Party opponent, Pierre Poilievre, “Canada’s Trump,” which naturally means he is, in Colbert’s eyes, a fascist, nativist-xenophobe.

CBS’s Stephen Colbert might as well rename The Late Show to The Kamala Harris Fan Club because on Wednesday he and MSNBC’s Rachel Maddow marveled about how supposedly everyone from Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez to Dick Cheney and from the military to Scientific American loves her.

Johnny Carson wouldn’t recognize today’s “Tonight Show.”

CBS’s Stephen Colbert turned The Late Show into The Democratic Strategy Show on Thursday as he welcomed Arizona Sen. Mark Kelly to the program to promote his new children’s book and Kamala Harris 2024.

CBS’s host of The Late Show, Stephen Colbert, repeatedly tried to bait Supreme Court Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson into trashing her conservative colleagues on Tuesday, only for her to stymie him with multiple “no comment” responses. At one point, Colbert lamented “that’s a layup” in response to one of her non-responses.

The Democratic National Convention featured the expected crush of progressive stars.

The end of a Democrat convention really draws out proclamations of Historic Possibilities, and Rachel Maddow, Jake Tapper, and Stephen Colbert stood out in the gushfest. It's quite a contrast with how all the anchors summarized Donald Trump's acceptance speech. 

For the late night comedy shows, the week of the Democratic National Convention provides the hosts with an opportunity to prove that they can make fun of Democrats in the same way they attack Republicans. However, a new MRC study shows they failed to do so this past week. In terms of quantity, the comedians hold 113 fewer jokes than they did during the RNC and 60 fewer jokes about Kamala…

CBS’s Stephen Colbert wrapped up his week of live shows from Chicago on the final night of the Democratic National Convention by hyping Kamala Harris’s acceptance speech as “everything we've been waiting for.” To cap it all off, he welcomed Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez for some additional party promotional material.

After Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz accepted the Democratic nomination for vice president on Wednesday, CBS’s Stephen Colbert reacted on a live edition of The Late Show by claiming that day three of the DNC was “another powerful evening” that “was about remembering that America is good and that we shouldn't give in to hopelessness.”

CBS’s Stephen Colbert’s interview with former Speaker Nancy Pelosi was derailed late Tuesday night and early Wednesday morning on night two of the Democratic National Convention in Chicago by anti-Israel hecklers. The Late Show host struggled as he sought to control the unruly behavior, but also tried to appease them by noting Pelosi’s answers were “unsatisfying to some people” as he…

CBS’s Stephen Colbert welcomed former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton to a live edition of The Late Show early Tuesday morning in Chicago to recap night one of the Democratic National Convention.
