Fuck the Ellisons and fuck Trump.

What a glorious, musically chaotic send off. Quite fitting. Keep fighting the good fight, Colbert et all.

Bye Stephen, you will be missed!
I like the actual final shot of the snow globe on the street
Just a reminder that the Ellison’s also own Tiktok. If you want to really hit them in the pockets delete and boycott Tiktok. It doesn’t stop at CBS!
The thing that confuses me is that Colbert’s show is so successful, surely another network or something can pick his show up no? The talent is still there if Colbert and his team want to keep doing it.
yes, the jackass show is now on paramount+ in its original form for the first time since it aired on mtv but don’t watch them legally. boycott paramount, cancel your paramount+ subscriptions, pirate the show, i’m sure the “new” versions will be ripped soon, and if you wanna see best and last, don’t actually buy a ticket for it, buy a ticket for a non-paramount film and then sneak into best and last.
February 9, 1964: Beatles took the stage at the Ed Sullivan Theater for their first TV appearance. Watched by 73 million people.
May 22, 2026: Paul McCartney returns to the Ed Sullivan Theater for the final The Late Show with Stephen Colbert episode.
Full circle. To quote Letterman, “you can talk a man’s show, but you can’t take his voice.”
Im not crying. But im a little close. Almost got me. There’s something about goodbye that gets me 🥹
Paul cutting the lights feels like the British saying, “y’all tried this America experiment… time to pull the plug! 🤷”
I was crying…..this timeline is so stupid and I wish the people that are a sleep would wake up
no one’s gonna mention Elvis Costello
Last time we ever see a Beatle perform on live TV in the States? Thats a pretty special send off for Stephen and the Late Show.
I’m a sap…crying at Hacks and now a puddle at this
