Stephen Colbert
will take the Late Show crown from David Letterman when the late-night host retires next year. “Stephen is a multi-talented and respected host, writer, producer, satirist and comedian who blazes a trail of thought-provoking conversation, humor and innovation with everything he touches,” said chairman, CBS Entertainment Nina Tassler. “He is a presence on every stage, with interests and notable accomplishments across a wide spectrum of entertainment, politics, publishing and music.” Said Colbert, “I’m thrilled and grateful that CBS chose me. Now, if you’ll excuse me, I have to go grind a gap in my front teeth.”

Where does the Colbert hire leave Late Late Show host Craig Ferguson? Aside from richer by several millions of dollars, thanks to a succession clause in his contract, Ferguson’s late night future is unclear. “We’re having conversations,” said CBS CEO Les Moonves on Thursday. “There’s nothing to report now.” But Ferguson will be busy in any case: his syndicated game show, Celebrity Name Game, launches in the fall, and he’s exec producer of Science Channel’s upcoming I F-ing Love Science, making a 4Q14 debut.
