The end date for ‘The Colbert Report’ has been announced and the last day the episode will air is December 18. This will not be the last time you’ll see Stephen Colbert on your TV screen, as he will be taking over CBS’ ‘The Late Show’ in place of David Letterman. He used the announcement of the last episode to promote his book, “America Again: Re-becoming the Greatness We Never Weren’t”.
On Thursday’s show he stated, “Stephen Colbert, the guy you’ve seen here every night for nine years will be gone. All you’ll have left of me is this book. So pick up ‘America Again’ in paperback for a loved one. Or for a hated one. Go to your local independent book store, because I have a longtime war against Amazon and I will never relent. Or—buy it on Amazon, because, you know, just buy it.”
There hasn’t been any news as to when Stephen Colbert’s ‘The Late Show’ will air.
