Stephen Colbert Gets a Visit From Jimmy Fallon, Jon Stewart and More Late Night Hosts After Cancellation — Watch

Yahoo4 days ago
TV's late night hosts sure do stick together.
On Monday's episode of CBS' The Late Show — the first since host Stephen Colbert revealed his show was being cancelled — Colbert got a quick visit from four of his fellow late night hosts: The Tonight Show's Jimmy Fallon, The Daily Show's Jon Stewart, Late Night's Seth Meyers and Last Week Tonight's John Oliver.

In a parody of last week's viral Coldplay concert moment, Colbert brought out 'Weird Al' Yankovic and Lin-Manuel Miranda to sing Coldplay's 'Vida la Vida' while the camera panned around the audience. The camera stopped on a few fans before landing on CNN's Anderson Cooper and Bravo's Andy Cohen; Fallon and Meyers; Adam Sandler and his Happy Gilmore 2 co-star Christopher McDonald; and Stewart and Oliver. After the camera stopped on a cartoon of President Donald Trump cuddling the Paramount logo and then discarding it, though, Colbert had to halt the tune, informing Yankovic and Miranda: 'Your song has been cancelled.'

During his monologue, Colbert offered a profane response to Trump's gleeful reaction to the cancellation, turning to a fancy Eloquence Cam and bluntly telling the commander-in-chief: 'Go f–k yourself.' He also threw cold water on Trump's prediction that Jimmy Kimmel would be next, declaring: 'I am the martyr, OK? There's only room for one on this cross, and I gotta tell you: The view is fantastic from up here!'
The cancellation of The Late Show was 'purely a financial decision against a challenging backdrop in late night,' CBS said in a statement last week. 'It is not related in any way to the show's performance, content or other matters happening at Paramount.' Many in the industry, however, point to Colbert's strong criticism of Trump, along with CBS' parent company Paramount agreeing to pay Trump $16 million to settle a lawsuit related to 60 Minutes, as Paramount awaits FCC approval of its merger with Skydance Media.
Colbert announced the cancellation on Thursday's episode, telling the studio audience: 'Next year will be our last season. The network will be ending The Late Show in May.' The audience, of course, loudly booed this news, and Colbert wryly replied, 'Yeah, I share your feelings.'
Many others shared their feelings as well: Kimmel, host of ABC's Jimmy Kimmel Live!, posted on Instagram, 'Love you Stephen. F–k you and all your Sheldons CBS.' Fallon also offered Colbert support: 'Stephen is one of the sharpest, funniest hosts to ever do it. I really thought I'd ride this out with him for years to come.' Meyers added that 'for as great a comedian and host he is, [Colbert] is an even better person,' and Oliver offered: 'I love Stephen, I love his staff. I love that show. It's incredibly sad… It's terrible, terrible news for the world of comedy.'

Women Are Sharing The Biggest Mistakes Men Make When Showing Interest, And One In Particular Was Repeated A Lot

Anyone who's been on dating apps knows that some people seem to have no idea how to talk to a potential match. So when u/fiterphanter asked, "Women, what is the biggest mistake men make when showing interest?" women chimed in with tons of suggestions. Here are some of the most-upvoted and most-repeated ones: 1. "Don't go overboard on the talking about sex... be able to talk about other things." —aurora_ethereallight "Like my Warhammer collection?" —Pissedtuna "Honestly, yes. One of my college friends had one, and none of us did, but it was endearing how much he was into it and fun to see him light up about painting little figures that took hours to dry." —firefly0827 Related: 2. "Lying that you like the same things we do." —Fluid-Vacation-3172 "I had quite a few guys do this in the past. It always sucked because here I am falling for them, thinking we have so much in common. Then, after a while in the relationship, they start to get comfortable and now don't want to go anywhere we used to go or do anything we used to do because, 'Well, I don't actually like that band; I just liked you.' Like that's supposed to be OK, I'm just supposed to accept this life now? What a waste of time for both people." —Eshlau 3. "Making sexist comments. A lot of guys think variations of the comment, 'Most women are so dumb, but you're so smart!' is a compliment. It's not. Especially if you're complimenting me for knowing something basic. It suggests you don't engage many women in conversation." —mauvebirdie 4. "Making sexual innuendos to test boundaries when I don't know you." —Medusa17251 5. "Talking constant smack about their ex. Comparing us to their ex. Like if it comes up in conversation, say what you need to say and move on. Don't punish us for what your ex did, bro. Heal up. Also, bragging about how many other women are interested in you, how ✨lucky✨ I am to have been at the top of the list." —Salt_Specialist_3206 6. "Making it about looks, in a way that makes it obvious they're not really looking past that. You can usually tell because they're not complimenting your personality, taking interest in your hobbies, etc. It's just, 'You're so pretty,' 'Your body is so hot.' It can actually feel quite sad." —highuptop 7. "I remember when I first met my wife, we had an amazing date that lasted way longer than expected. A couple hours later she texted me asking if she'd scared me off. I was super interested, but didn't want to seem too interested, and she straightened me up real quick! Don't try to play it cool by not communicating." —SgtGo Related: 8. "Not asking any questions and actually keeping the conversation going. Ridiculously basic but shocking how many men don't understand this, including the ones that show strong interest." —ChemistryMean3876 "It's not just about showing interest; it's about making someone feel seen and heard. Asking questions, remembering little details, and being present... that's where the real foundation of trust and intimacy is built." —SpacedGeek 9. "Showing extreme jealousy over a girl you aren't even dating. My best friend had a small birthday party, and there were mostly people I knew, and some I didn't. A guy came up and told me I was very pretty and he liked my outfit. I said thank you and continued to see my friend. I started playing pool with her brother, and I looked up to see that same guy fuming and staring daggers at me. Bro, I don't know you? Why TF are you grilling me like that? It came off seriously unhinged because he did it the whole party every time I socialized with any of the guys." —Glittering-Relief402 10. "Not understanding the constraints that women face around safety. I was listening to a man talk about how frustrated he was that he wanted to pick up a first date in his car, and she wanted to meet him at the restaurant. It's because she doesn't want to be trapped with you if you end up wanting to hurt her. She wants to have an escape. Some guys literally try to murder their dates. Dating can be very scary/dark for women." —koolaid-girl-40 11. "Making it sexual. I can't emphasize this enough. If you make it sexual before we meet, I'm immediately disappointed. Most of my experience post-divorce is dating online, and I cringe every time a guy has 'I love to cuddle' on his profile. Or we start talking, and within a paragraph, he's asking to give me a massage. Just talk to women like we're people, not sexual objects. Adding onto this that I am very sexual and in no way avoid sex. But if I don't know you, I don't want to talk sex with you. Period." —darksideofthesuburbs Related: 12. "Acting like being nice is a personality, then getting mad when you don't fall for them immediately." —That_Purple288 "Or worse, a tactic. 'Here are some flowers and I held the door and said your grandma's hat looked nice. What, you don't feel a spark? F*** your grandma, that old b****!'" —Hot-Prize217 13. "I think a lot of men would do well to remember that they can easily overpower us, and we are always aware of that. So, fear is often present, and for good reason. Giving a woman some time to get to know you, and to see that you will be safe for her, is crucial for many women." —Mountain_Jury_8335 "A small sample survey was done of women. They were asked to describe qualities of their 'best boyfriends.' The responses were then put into a keyword bubble graph, where the more a word was used, the bigger it was. 'Safe' was one of the biggest words. Pretty eye-opening for me as a dude." —Wessssss21 14. "Trauma dumping on the first date." —everlylennonn 15. "I've noticed a lot of men try to 'sell' themselves — make a big deal about their accomplishments, basically finding any reason to brag or bring up nice or helpful things they've done for others, etc. Trying to impress their date. But in reality, it just makes you look a bit narcissistic. It's off-putting. Let your personality show for itself! If a woman is on a date with you (especially if it's your second+ date), she has some interest in you already; you don't have to force it." —bingocatswithhats 16. "Never disagreeing with me. It's suspicious and it's a red flag that you're not being honest." —LizardPossum Related: 17. "I don't want a show, I don't want bravado. I'm not a damsel in distress; I don't need to be fixed. Accept me for who I am, and don't try to change me to fit your narrative. Be genuine, listen. Your efforts do not have to be grand, maybe you heard her say that her favorite color is X and you'll bring her something that color." —DreadPriratesBooty 18. "I hear/ see a lot of guys think dating is some sort of formula or game. They think if they check boxes like having a job or being in shape, then women will automatically be interested. And that if they 'say the right things' or make them seem a certain type of way, that will result in a relationship/sex/attention. In reality, that's manipulation. Women want to date someone they have an actual connection with. Not someone who just says what they think women want to hear." —shaylaa30 19. "Not the 'biggest' mistake, but if he won't let me pay for my own coffee or meal on the first date, there will not be a second. I don't like feeling like I 'owe' people things, and I don't like it when a guy is more interested in Correctly Performing Manliness than he is in listening to a simple 'no thank you.'" —ThatInAHat "This so much. Basic human politeness (taking no for an answer, etc.) > Chivalry." —Mundane_Caramel60 20. "Faking a friendship. So many men treat friendships with women as stepping stones for a sexual/romantic relationship, and it's gross for two reasons: It shows that they value us only in those terms, and it shows a very deep-rooted dishonesty. If you want to pursue something sexual, say it, and if the woman isn't interested in that and you aren't interested in a genuine friendship, move the f*** along." —eleanorlikesvodka 21. "Pretending you want a relationship when you just want sex. Be honest. Sometimes that is all women want, too, and you're more likely to: a.) Find the women who want the same faster... And TBH, sometimes FWB will be more likely because it still needs to be based on respect and attraction to last, even when casual. b.) Stop wasting EVERYONE'S time by revealing that, after leading someone turning them off by going overtly sexual and thinking that will work." —and12345go 22. "Making weird jokes too soon. Could a serial killer joke be funny after we've been dating and watched the documentary together? Sure. Is it funny on the first date when you're driving me somewhere in the dark on our first date? F*** no." —yellowjacket1996 Do you have any more to add? If so, use the anonymous form below, or just let us know in the comments!

Is SNL new tonight on July 26, 2025? Here's the answer.

It was a great Season 50 of Saturday Night Live, with some hilarious cold opens, funny moments on Weekend Update and so many guest stars. There was also the big SNL 50 celebration this year. And if you're here, you might be getting ready to watch SNL on Saturday, July 26, 2025 and wondering: is it all new tonight? If not, is it a rerun? Who's hosting? THE 15 BEST SKETCHES IN SNL HISTORY: Our rankings of the best of Saturday Night Live The answer ... No. It's a rerun after the season finale months ago. NBC's site says we're getting the episode in which Nate Bargatze was the host and Coldplay was the musical guest. It'll be a while until we get a new episode, sadly, but at least we can rewatch the past season's funny episodes. There you have it. Enjoy! When is SNL Season 51 coming? We don't have an official date for that, but it'll be sometime this fall, as usual. Who is leaving SNL? And who is joining the cast? We haven't heard names that our out. We do know that Mikey Day is staying, and we haven't heard yet about any new comedians or actors who will be joining the cast this fall.
