By Matt Moore
It was a busy weekend, and Monday only added to the news cycle. So what should The Late Show with Stephen Colbert fans expect to see tonight on CBS?
News broke on Monday that Fox News fired longtime host Tucker Carlson. CNN had its own bombshell, announcing they also fired host Don Lemon. Late-night TV quickly reacted, with hosts like Jimmy Kimmel and Seth Meyers sharing their thoughts.
However, Stephen Colbert’s response was noticeably absent as he took Monday night off. Unfortunately, that’s also the case on Tuesday. There will not be a new episode of The Late Show with Stephen Colbert tonight.
Instead, CBS will reair the March 30 episode. Interested viewers can revisit Colbert welcoming Brooke Shields, Clint Smith, and Weyes Blood.
