After Stephen Colbert’s firing, his late-night counterparts are shining brighter than ever. With declining profits and viewership, Colbert’s departure has made him one of the most precarious jobs in late-night TV.
However, other hosts like Jimmy Kimmel, Seth Meyers, Jon Stewart, and John Oliver continue to comment on world events, speak to star guests, and make America laugh. Here’s who’s still doing it:
– The Late Show with Stephen Colbert: Filmed in New York City’s Ed Sullivan Theater, the show has been airing since 2015.
– Late Night with Seth Meyers: With over 11 years under his belt, Meyers takes over from Jimmy Fallon and airs live from NBC’s Studio 8G.
– The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon: Fallon hosts from Rockefeller Center’s Studio 6B, taking over in February 2014.
– Jimmy Kimmel Live!: Filmed on Hollywood Boulevard, the show has been airing since January 2003.
– Last Week Tonight With John Oliver: Airing on HBO Sundays, Oliver takes over from April 2014 with his satirical series.
– The Daily Show: Jon Stewart serves as Monday’s host, with a rotating cast of other hosts.
Despite CBS canceling Colbert’s show, he still has time to shine before its end in May. Other late-night shows are adapting to changing costs and viewer trends, making them more precarious jobs. However, they continue to entertain audiences across the country.
