Well, he beat Leno in that sense. Just PLEASE not another white guy.

I only watch his interviews with actors promoting their movies or shows or such. He always asks such dumb questions. 

[Master Scottb]

Wouldn't it be funny if his replacement was Jay Leno?

[DeeCee]

Is Craig Ferguson likely to move up?

 

I used to watch Letterman quiet a lot around 10 years ago.  It was the only US late night talk show on free to air her at a reasonable time.

Letterman 2015 Replacement: My sources say Stephen Colbert "the only one on the air currently that CBS is considering."

 

Listen to the sources....

Now that would be mean

[DeeCee]

Listen to the sources....

Stephen Colbert would be a bold replacement.  Would he be himself or "Stephen Colbert"?

[GiantCALBears]

Listen to the sources....

For some reason I feel like this has pull. Call me crazy...

[#ED]

Leno!? lol...

[Kevin Bacon]

You know what this means..

[DeeCee]

Give John Oliver a go.

[Magic]

Hell no. Colbert and Oliver would be better off doing what they are doing now rather than some mindless late night chat show designed to serve up fluff to morons.

No. why would he go to CBS?  He claimed NBC was his "family". They should move Ferguson's show to Dave's timeslot, and the new person can have a show after him.

The guy was a schmuck but congrats on your longevity and sayonara! I rarely watched him , the few times with itw of my fav actors and the questions were so inane , he didn't even pretend to care or put his guests at ease , there was always this obligation vibe from him and the guest Which is so stark a difference when you watch jimmy fallon or kemmel they rock and entertain everyone the viewers the audience and the guest have a fun 15 minutes as they get the meaning of variety show

Colbert is a very interesting choice and I can't wait to see what he does. I'm a little sad to see The Colbert Report go. 

[Empire]

I am sure Colbert will do a great job. However, I wish someone else would have got the job, so he could continue to do The Colbert Report. 

[Michael Gary Scott]

I was hoping for Howard Stern

[Magic]

Shame. He's so good on the colbert report. Now he's going to spend all of his time talking to celebrities about their crappy movies. Ugh. His show will probably be dumbed down for the masses.
