Stephen Colbert’s Last Late Show: A Bittersweet Goodbye

Stephen Colbert on his talk show set.
  • What’s Inside: Stephen Colbert’s final sign-off.
  • The vibe of his last show.
  • What we’re thinking about it.

We just saw the news that Stephen Colbert’s run on The Late Show is officially over. Yep, May 21st was the very last episode. It feels like the end of an era, doesn’t it?

We’re always a little sad when a show we love wraps up. We’ll miss his sharp wit and how he could make even serious topics feel… well, not so serious. The whole aesthetic of the show was so distinctly him. Think warm lights, a cozy desk, and that signature knowing smirk.

It’s the end of a chapter for sure. We’re already wondering what’s next for him. And for us, who will we be laughing with late at night?

Our Take

It’s always a little sad to see a familiar face leave our screens. We loved Stephen’s take on the world. But hey, every ending is also a new beginning, right? We’re excited to see what he does next, and we hope it’s something amazing!
