Stephen Colbert, The Late Show

Stephen Colbert is making headlines as The Late Show approaches its final season. In a rare show of late-night unity, Colbert welcomed Jimmy Fallon, Seth Meyers, Jon Stewart, and John Oliver on Monday night’s episode following CBS’s decision to cancel the program.
Jimmy Fallon, Seth Meyers, Jon Stewart and John Oliver joined Weird Al Yankovic and Lin-Manuel Miranda to support Stephen Colbert after 'The Late Show's' cancellation by appearing in a segment inspired by the Coldplay kiss-cam incident.
Stephen Colbert spoofed that viral Coldplay concert clip with help from several fellow late-night hosts, plus Lin-Manuel Miranda and Weird Al.
Monday's late night monologues have all addressed the sudden cancellation of The Late Show, with Jon Stewart taking aim at his own parent company (Paramount owns CBS), Stephen Colbert sharing his blunt response, and Donald Trump gloating about the cancellation on social media.
The gag started with Miranda and Weird Al coming out to perform a song – a Coldplay song, in fact, a reference to the Astronomer scandal, which saw the CEO resigning after getting caught with the company’s HR chief on a kiss-cam at a recent concert from Chris Martin’s band.
I am your host,” Fallon said as he opened his monologue on NBC’s “Tonight Show” before adding: “Well, at least for tonight.”
