Is The Late Show with Stephen Colbert new tonight, August 22?
By Matt Moore
The Late Show with Stephen Colbert disappointed fans by taking off last week. So what should audiences expect to see tonight on CBS?
Millions of fans tuned in last week, hoping to hear a Stephen Colbert monologue dedicated to the latest developments from the FBI search of Mar-a-Lago. Instead, they were treated to repeat episodes from earlier this summer.
Expect more of the same on Monday night. There will not be a new episode of The Late Show with Stephen Colbert tonight.
Instead, CBS will reair the August 9 episode. Any fans interested can revisit appearances by Ben Stiller, D’Arcy Carden, and Joe Walsh.
What to watch instead of The Late Show with Stephen Colbert tonight
Summer is almost over and when it’s finished, we should see fewer repeat episodes. Until then, fans are in for nights like tonight when late-night TV options are limited.
NBC shows will both air reruns. So don’t expect anything new from The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon or Late Night with Seth Meyers.
However, CBS goes with a slightly different schedule. After The Late Show, you’ll get a new episode of The Late Late Show with James Corden. The guest list includes Kevin Hart and Alison Brie.
Over on ABC, look for a new Jimmy Kimmel Live! episode. Actor and comedian Lamorne Morris serves as guest host and welcomes Dave Franco, Trevante Rhodes, and Tedeschi Trucks Band.
Rounding out the schedule, The Daily Show with Trevor Noah will be pre-empted on Comedy Central.
