John Oliver, Stephen Colbert and The Late Show

Stephen Colbert got an assist on 'The Late Show' from some of his late-night rivals following CBS's sudden decision to axe the show.
Stephen Colbert received the help of some surprise guests during a Coldplay-inspired segment that trashed CBS’s cancelation of his show. “People out there are bummed about the show ending,” Colbert began.
Oliver called "The Late Show" cancellation “incredibly sad" but couldn’t help wondering what chaos Stephen Colbert might unleash on the way out.
In 2023, Kimmel and Colbert teamed up with fellow late-night legends Jimmy Fallon, Seth Meyers, and John Oliver to host the podcast Strike Force Five in response to the Writers’ Guild of America strike that put a pause on their late-night shows.
